Hebron

Hebron was where Abraham settled and lived for much of his life. He purchased the cave of Machpelah there as a family burial site, making it the only land Abraham actually owned in Canaan. This cave became the burial place for six of the patriarchs and matriarchs: Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Rebekah, Jacob, and Leah.

After Saul's death, David inquired of the Lord and was directed to go to Hebron. The men of Judah anointed him king there because Hebron was centrally located in Judah and held great historical significance as the patriarchs' city. David reigned from Hebron for seven and a half years before capturing Jerusalem.
