<p> (Heb. Yidalah', יַדנְאֲלָה '','' probably ''Exalted;'' Sept. Ι᾿αδηλά), a city near the western border of Zebulon, mentioned between Shimron and [[Bethlehem]] (&nbsp;Joshua 19:15). According to Schwarz, it is called ''Chirii'' in the Talmud, and is identical with the village ''Kelluh Al. Chire,'' six English miles southwest of Shimron or Semunie ''(Palestine,'' p. 172). He doubtless refers to the niace marked on Robinson's map as ''Kulat El-Kireh,'' in the valley of the Kishon, south-west of Semunieh or imonias; a position not improbable. especially if marked by the ruins on the north side of the river. Dr. Robinson, who afterwards visited it, calls it "''Jeida,'' a miserable village with no traces of antiquity" ''(Later Researches,'' p. 113); but [[Van]] de Velde shows that it actually has many marks, although now much obliterated, of being an off site (Memoir, p. 322). </p>

<p> ''''' id´a ''''' - ''''' la ''''' , ''''' i ''''' - ''''' dā´la ''''' ( ידאלה , <i> ''''' yidh'ălāh ''''' </i> ): A town in the territory of Zebulun, named with Shimron and Beth-lehem (&nbsp; Joshua 19:15 ). The [[Talmud]] identifies it with <i> '''''Ḥuryēh''''' </i> (Talm [[Jerusalem]] on <i> '''''Megh''''' </i> ., I, 1). This, Conder thinks, may be represented by the modern <i> '''''Khirbet el''''' </i> - <i> '''''Ḥuwāra''''' </i> to the South of <i> '''''Beit Laḥm''''' </i> . </p>
