נחמיה, פרק י״א, פסוק ל״ה

The settlements of Lod, Ono, and Gei HaCharashim hold deep historical roots. These specific locations are recognized as part of a well-known group of cities that belonged to the ancestral lands of the tribe of Benjamin. Their connection to this territory is deeply established, having served as a recognized part of the tribe's inheritance since ancient times [ביאור שטיינזלץ].
