| <p> Nahal'al or Na'halal. (pasture). One of the cities of Zebulun, given with its "suburbs," to the [[Merarite]] Levites. Joshua 21:35. It is the same which in Joshua 19:15, is inaccurately given, in the Authorized Version, as Nahallal, the [[Hebrew]] being in both cases identical. Elsewhere, it is called Nahalol. Judges 1:30. It is identified with the modern Malul, a village in the plain of Esdraelon. </p> | | Nahalal <ref name="term_52425" /> |
|
| | <p> Malul, the site proposed by some for this place, is described in the Memoirs accompanying the Ordnance Survey (1:274) as "a mud village on a hill, with open ground on the west, where stands the prominent ruin Kusr ez-Zir." </p> |

| <p> <strong> NAHALAL </strong> (in Judges 1:30 <strong> [[Nahalol]] </strong> ). A town of [[Zebulun]] ( Joshua 19:15 ), given to the [[Levites]] ( Joshua 21:35 ). Its inhabitants were not expelled by the Zebulunites, but were made tributary ( Judges 1:30 ). A possible site is <em> ‘Ain Mahil </em> , north of Nazareth, on the hill which formed the limit of Zebulun to the east. [[Another]] is <em> Ma‘lul </em> , a village west of Nazareth, and on the south border of Zebulun. </p>

| <p> Joshua 19:15; Joshua 21:35; Judges 1:30. A city of Zebulun, given to the [[Merarite]] Levites. Now Malul in the [[Esdraelon]] plain; four miles W. of Nazareth. Being in the plain [[Israel]] could not drive out of it the [[Canaanites]] with their chariots, which could act on the level ground. </p>

| <p> (Heb. Nahalal', נִהֲלָל, pasture; Sept. Νααλώλ v.r. Ναβάαλ, and even Σελλά ; Vulg. Nahum 1 lol; Auth. Vers. once "Nahallal," Joshua 19:15), a city, in the tribe of Zebulun, on the border of [[Issachar]] (Joshua 19:15), but inhabited by [[Canaanites]] tributary to [[Israel]] (Judges 1:30, where the name is "Nahalol"), given with its "suburbs" to the [[Merarite]] [[Levites]] (Joshua 21:35). It is mentioned between [[Kithlish]] and Shimron. [[Eusebius]] erroneously locates it E. of the [[Jordan]] (Onomast. s.v. Νειλά ). "The [[Jerusalem]] [[Talmud]] (Megillah, chapter 1; Maaser Sheni, chapter 5), as quoted by Schwarz (Palest. page 172) and Reland (Palest. page 717), asserts that [[Nahalal]] (or Mahalal, as it is in some copies) was in postBiblical times called Maohlul; and this Schwarz identifies with the modern Malul, a village in the plain of [[Esdraelon]] under the, mountains which enclose the plain on the north, four miles west of Nazareth, and two from Japhia; an identification concurred in by [[Van]] de Velde (Memoir, s.v.). One [[Hebrew]] MS. (30 Kennicott) lends countenance to it by reading מהלל, i.e. Mahalal, in Joshua 21:35. If the town was in the great plain, we can understand why the [[Israelites]] were unable to drive out the Canaanites from it, since their chariots must have been extremely formidable as long as they remained on level or smooth ground." This site, however, has been appropriated by [[Porter]] to that of the ancient MARALAH (See [[Maralah]]) (q.v.). </p>

| <p> ''''' nā´hal ''''' - ''''' al ''''' ( נחלל , <i> ''''' naḥălāl ''''' </i> ; [[Codex]] Vaticanus, Βαιθμάν , <i> ''''' Baithmán ''''' </i> ; Codex Alexandrinus Νααλώλ , <i> ''''' Naalṓl ''''' </i> , and other forms): A city in the territory of [[Zebulun]] assigned with its suburbs to the [[Merarite]] Levites, out of which the [[Canaanite]] inhabitants were not driven ( Joshua 19:15 , the King James Version (incorrectly) "Nahallal"; 21:35; Judges 1:30 , "Nahalol"). In the [[Talmud]] [[Jerusalem]] ( <i> Meg </i> ., i. 1) it is identified with Mahlul. This name might correspond either with <i> '''''‛Ain''''' </i> <i> '''''Māhil''''' </i> , or with <i> '''''Ma‛lūl''''' </i> . The former lies about 3 1/2 miles Northeast of [[Nazareth]] on a hill near the eastern boundary of Zebulun. The latter is situated about 3 1/2 miles West of Nazareth, near the southern border of Zebulun. The change of "n" to "m" is not unusual. </p>
