In Yeqavtseel (Kabzeel), a town in southern Judah, appearing in Nehemiah 11:25
Yeqavtseel appears with the preposition and locative he in Nehemiah 11:25 as one of the towns where returned exiles settled. The name means 'God gathers' and is parallel to Kabzeel in earlier texts (Joshua 15:21, 2 Samuel 23:20). The resettlement lists in Nehemiah document the repopulation of Judean territory after the Babylonian exile.
