On the northern boundary of Judah, near the sea (Joshua 15:11); [[Josephus]] (Ant. 5:1, section 22) assigns it to Daniel That tribe and the [[Philistines]] were in constant warfare for the towns in the lowland. So in 2 Chronicles 26:6 it was in the Philistines' possession, and had its wall broken down by Uzziah. Its harbour, like that of [[Ascalon]] and Gaza, was called Majumas, "the place on the sea." it had a school of learned doctors at the time of the fall of Jerusalem.

<p> <strong> JABNEEL. 1. </strong> A town on the N. border of Judah, near Mt. Baalah, and close to the sea ( Joshua 15:11 ). In 2 Chronicles 26:6 it is mentioned under the name <strong> [[Jabneh]] </strong> , along with [[Gath]] and Ashdod, as one of the cities captured from the [[Philistines]] by Uzziah. Although these are the only OT references, it is frequently mentioned (under the name <strong> [[Jamnia]] </strong> ) in the Books of [[Maccabees]] ( 1Ma 4:15; 1Ma 5:58; 1Ma 10:69; 1Ma 15:40 , 2Ma 12:8-9; 2Ma 12:40 ) and in Josephus. [[Judas]] is said to have burned its harbour; it was captured by [[Simon]] from the Syrians. In Jdt 2:28 it is called <strong> [[Jemnaan]] </strong> . After various vicissitudes it was captured in the war of the [[Jews]] by Vespasian. After the destruction of Jerusalem, Jabneel, now called Jamnia, became the home of the Sanhedrin. At the time of the [[Crusades]] the castle <em> Ibelin </em> stood on the site. To-day the village of <em> Yebna </em> stands on the ruined remains of these ancient occupations. It stands 170 feet above the sea on a prominent hill S. of the <em> [[Wady]] Rubin </em> . The ancient <em> Majumas </em> or harbour of Jamnia lies to the West. ‘The port would seem to be naturally better than any along the coast of [[Palestine]] S. of Cæsarea’ (Warren). </p> <p> <strong> 2. </strong> An unknown site on the N. boundary of [[Naphtali]] not far from the [[Jordan]] ( Joshua 19:33 ). </p> <p> E. W. G. Masterman. </p> | |||

<p> [[Jabneel]] (jăb'ne-el or jăb'neel), [[Jehovah]] causes to be built. A town of Judah; called also Jabneh. Joshua 15:11; 2 Chronicles 26:6. [[Uzziah]] captured it from the Philistines. It was called by Josephus, Jamnia, and after the destruction of [[Jerusalem]] was for some time the seat of a famous [[Jewish]] school of learning. It is identified with Yebnah, a [[Tillage]] about 170 feet above the [[Mediterranean]] and 12 miles south of Joppa. </p> | |||

<p> Jab'ne-el. (building of God). </p> <p> 1. One of the points on the northern boundary of Judah, not quite at the sea, though near it. Joshua 15:11. There is no sign, however, of its ever having been occupied by Judah. [[Josephus]] attributes it to the Danites. </p> <p> There was a constant struggle going on between that tribe and the Philistines, for the possession of all the places in the Shefelah, or lowland plains, and it is not surprising that the next time we meet with Jabneel, it should be in the hands of the latter. 2 Chronicles 26:6. </p> <p> [[Uzziah]] dispossessed them of it and demolished its fortifications. Called also Jabneh. At the time of the fall of Jerusalem, [[Jabneh]] was one of the most populous places of [[Judea.]] The modern village of Yebna, more accurately Ibna, stands about two miles from the sea, on a slight eminence just south of the Nahr Rubin. </p> <p> 2. One of the landmarks on the boundary of Naphtali, Joshua 19:33, in upper Galilee. </p> | |||

<p> (Hebrew Yabneel', יִבְנְאֵל , built by God; Sept. Ι᾿αβνήλ, but Ι᾿αβιήλ in Joshua 19:33), the name of two places. </p> <p> 1. A town on the northern boundary of Judah, between Mount [[Baalah]] and the [[Mediterranean]] (Joshua 15:11); probably the same elsewhere (2 Chronicles 26:6) called JABNEH (See [[Jabneh]]) (q.v.) or JAMNIANI (1 [[Maccabees]] 4:15, etc.). </p> <p> 2. A city on the border of Naphtali, mentioned between [[Nekeb]] and [[Lakum]] (Joshua 19:33). Schwarz (Palest. p. 181, 182) affirms that the later name of [[Jabneel]] was Ker Yameah, "the village, by the sea," and on Talmudical grounds (comp. Reland's Palcest. p. 545, 716) locates it on the southern shore of [[Lake]] Merom, and thinks it identical with the Jaminia or Jainnuith mentioned by [[Josephus]] as lying in this section of [[Upper]] [[Galilee]] (Ι᾿άμνια, Life, 37; Ι᾿αμνίθ , War, 2, 20, 6). This is ‘ not improbable, as the boundary-line here described appears to have extended from the northern limit of [[Palestine]] along the eastern bounds of [[Naphtali]] to the [[Jordan]] proper. It is perhaps the village Ja'tneh, visited by Dr. Robinson, on the declivity of the western mountain south of Lake Huleh, with a wady containing a small stream on the south of the village, and a few ruins of the [[Jewish]] type (Later Researches, p. 361,362). </p> | |||
