76 ORDINARY MEETING, 
“grove” on the hill-top at the new moon; while in the south-east of Judea 
at Beit-Jibreen (or Gath) we have traces of the old Philistines in the large 
flat-featured race, quite distinct from any others in the land. It is interesting 
to note that these relics of the aboriginal races are found just in the districts 
which we learn, from Judges i., were never thoroughly subdued by Israel.
