 Jerome - Wikipedia
He knew some Hebrew when he started his translation project, but moved to Bethlehem to perfect his grasp of the language and to strengthen his grip on Jewish scripture commentary.
Late in the summer of 388 he was back in Palestine, and settled down for the remainder of his life in a hermit's cell near Bethlehem, surrounded by a few friends, both men and women (including Paula and Eustochium), to whom he acted as priestly guide and teacher.
His remains, originally buried at Bethlehem, are said to have been later translated to the church of Santa Maria Maggiore at Rome, though other places in the West claim some relics-- the cathedral at Nepi boasting the possession of his head, which, according to another tradition, is in the Escurial.

The armies of the Philistines and of Israel were in battle array in the valley of Elah, some 16 miles south-west of Bethlehem; and David was sent by his father with provisions for his three brothers, who were then fighting on the side of the king.
On his arrival in the camp of Israel, David (now about twenty years of age) was made aware of the state of matters when the champion of the Philistines, Goliath of Gath, came forth to defy Israel.
The news of the massacre were brought to David by Abiathar, a son of Ahimelech, the only one who escaped; compare Psalm 52.

The name literally translates to "son of right," generally taken to mean "son of my right hand" but in some rabbinical traditions "son of the right side [of the body]" or "son of the south," the youngest son of Jacob and Rachel (Genesis 35:18).
His birth took place on the road between Bethel and Ephrath, characterized later by Christian writers as at a short distance from Bethlehem, because many centuries later the prophet Micah referred to "Bethlehem Ephrata." There is no other connection with Bethlehem.
His mother died in childbirth, and with her last breath named him bem-oni ("son of my pain"), an ill-omened name which was changed by his father into Benjamin.
