 | Beit Horon (Hebrew: בֵּית חוֹרוֹן) is a communal Israeli settlement in the West Bank. Bordering Route 443 between Modi'in and Jerusalem, the biblical pass of Beit Horon (Joshua 10:10), after which it is named, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Binyamin Regional Council. In 2017 it had a population of 1,274. The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.
