Smith's Bible Dictionary [1]

Heth'lon. (Hiding-Place). The name of a place on the northern border of Palestine.  Ezekiel 47:15;  Ezekiel 48:1. In all probability, the "Way Of Hethlon" , is the pass at the northern end of Lebanon, and is, thus, identical with "The Entrance Of Hamath", in  Numbers 34:8 etc.

Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [2]

Hethlon . A place mentioned by Ezekiel (  Ezekiel 47:15;   Ezekiel 48:1 ) as situated on the ideal northern boundary of Israel. Furrer identifies it with the present Heiteta , N.E. of Tripoli; and von Kasteren and others favour ’Adlun , north of the mouth of the Kasimiyyeh.

W. M. Nesbit.

Fausset's Bible Dictionary [3]

On the northern border of the promised land ( Ezekiel 47:15;  Ezekiel 48:1). "The way of Hethlon" is the pass at the N. end of Lebanon from the Mediterranean coast to the plain of Hamath, i.e. the entrance of Hamath ( Numbers 34:8).

Morrish Bible Dictionary [4]

Place spoken of as 'the way of Hethlon:' only mentioned as the border of the land in the north to be possessed by Israel in the future. It is in the locality of Hamath. It is supposed to be identified with 'the entrance of Hamath.'  Ezekiel 47:15;  Ezekiel 48:1 .

Holman Bible Dictionary [5]

 Ezekiel 47:15 Numbers 34:8

Easton's Bible Dictionary [6]

 Ezekiel 47:15 48:1

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [7]

heth´lon ( חתלון , ḥethlōn  ; Peshitta ḥethrōn ): Name of a place associated with Zedad on the ideal northern boundary of Israel, as given in   Ezekiel 47:15 and   Ezekiel 48:1 , but not named in  Numbers 34:8 , while the Septuagint evidently translated the text it had. In accordance with the opinion they hold as to the boundary line of Northern Israel, van Kasteren and Buhl seek to identify Hethlon with 'Adlun on the river Qasmiyeh . Much more in harmony with the line of the other border towns given is its identification with Heitala to the Northeast of Tripoli. The "way of Hethlon" would then coincide with the Eleutherus valley, between Homs and the Mediterranean, through which the railway now runs, and to this identification the Septuagint seems to give testimony, indicating some path of "descent" from the Biqa'a .

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [8]

(Heb. Chethlon', חֶתְלֹן , Wrappedup, i.e. a hiding-place; Vulg. Hethalon), a place the approach ( דֶּרֶךְ , "way") to which lay on the northern border of Palestine, between the Mediterranean and Zedad, in the direction of Hamath ( Ezekiel 47:15;  Ezekiel 48:1). In all probability the "way of Hethlon" is the pass at the (N. or S.) end of Lebanon, from the sea-coast of the Mediterranean to the great plain of Hamath, and is thus identical with "the entrance of Hamath" (q.v.)in  Numbers 34:8, etc. See Porter, Five Years in Damascus, 2, 356.
