Tishbe

Tishbe, sometimes transliterated as Thisbe,^[1] is a town mentioned in the Hebrew Bible's First Book of Kings, 1 Kings 17:1, as the residence and possibly even birthplace of the prophet Elijah, known as the Tishbite (see that page for discussion of the term). It is placed by the biblical text in the historical region of Gilead,^[2] now in the western part of modern-day Jordan. However, the toponym may denominate another location, as discussed below.
