(Heb. Chul, חוּל , a Circle; Sept. Οὔλ ), the name of the second son of Aram (B.C. cir. 2414), who appears to have given name to an Aramsean region settled by him ( Genesis 10:23; 1 Chronicles 1:17). Josephus (Ant. 1, 6, 4) places it ( Ουλον , as Havercamp corrects- for ῎Οτρος ) in Armenia, comparing it with the district Cholobotene, according to the conjecture of Bochart (Phaleg, 2: 9). Michaelis, taking the word in the sense of a Hollow or valley (Spicileg. 2: 135) understands Caele-Syris (comp, Josephus, Ant. 12, 7, 1; 1 Maccabees 3:13); and Schultens (Parad. p. 282) refers it to the southern part of Mesopotamia, from the signification sand. More probable seems the identification proposed by Rosenm Ü ller (Aterthum. 1, 2, p. 253) with the district now called Huleh, around the lake Merom, at the upper sources of the Jordan (Burckhardt, Tray. 1, 87), which, although a small tract and no proper part of Aramaea, seems to be supported by the rendering of Saadias (compare Schwarz, Palestine, p. 41, note), According to Dr. Robinson, the name el-Huleh, as used by the present inhabitants, belongs strictly to the northern part of the basin in which the lake lies, but is commonly extended to embrace the whole; its different quarters fall within various jurisdictions, and have special names (Researches, 3:342).
