Overview
Zephathah is a valley mentioned in 2 Chronicles 14 as the location of a significant military victory during King Asa's reign in Judah. When the Ethiopian king Zerah invaded with an enormous army, King Asa led the Judahite forces to this valley where God granted a miraculous defeat of the enemy forces.
Key Scriptures

"And Asa and the people that were with him pursued them unto Mareshah: and the LORD smote the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled" (2 Chronicles 14:13, KJV).
Application
