Smith's Bible Dictionary [1]
Ne'i-el. (Moved By God). A place, which formed one of the landmarks of the boundary, of the tribe of Asher. In Joshua 19:27 only. It occurs between Jiphthahel and Cabul.
If the former of these be identified with Jefat , and the latter with Kabul , eight or nine miles east-southeast of Akka , then Neiel may possibly be represented by Mi'Ar , a village conspicuously placed on a lofty mountain brow, just halfway between the two.
Fausset's Bible Dictionary [2]
A landmark on Asher's border ( Joshua 19:27). Now perhaps Mi'Ar on a mountain brow, half way between Cabul and Jefat (Jiphthahel).
Hawker's Poor Man's Concordance And Dictionary [3]
A city of Ashur. ( Joshua 19:27) From Nuah, shaking—and El, God.

Boundary city of Asher. Joshua 19:27 . Identified by some with ruins at Yanin , 32 54' N, 35 13' E .

[many Ne'iel] (Heb. Neiel', נְעַיאֵל -, Dwelling place Of 'God; Sept. Ναοήλ v.r. Ἀνιήλ, Ι᾿ναηλ; Vulg. Nehiel), a town in the territory of Asher, near the southern or south-eastern border ( Joshua 19:27). Eusebius and Jerome (who call it the "village Baetoanaea,"Βαιτοαναιά) place it in the mountain (Carmel), sixteen miles east (N.T.) of Caesarea Palaestina, where medicinal springs were found (Onomast. s.v. Aniel, Ἀνιήλ, the reading of the Alexand. MS. of the Sept. in the above passage); a position which exactly agrees with that of the modern village Bistan, adjoining the spring Ain-Haud, a short distance east of Athlit (Van de Velde, Map). The description of the boundary is quite indistinct at this point, (See Tribe); and if we regard merely the associated names Jiphthah-el (the present Jefat) and Cabul (now Kabul), we might locate Neiel at the modern Minar (supposing a mere interchange of liquids in the name), a village conspicuously situated half-way between them (Robinson, New Res. 3:87, 103); although Beth-emek (q.v.) is mentioned immediately before Neiel, and lies much farther interior (at Amkah). Keil (Comment. on Josh. ad loc.) thinks that the statement of the text assigns both these latter places a position south of the border and within Zebulon; while Knobel (Commentar, ad loc. Joshua) is inclined to identify Neiel with the NEAH of Joshua 19:13, which, however, lay too far east. For other views, see Rosenmuller, Scholia, ad loc.

nḗ - ı̄´el ( נעיאל , ne‛ı̄'ēl ; Codex Vaticanus Ἰναήλ , Inaḗl ; Codex Alexandrinus Ἀνιήλ , Aniḗl ): A town on the boundary between Zebulun and Asher mentioned between Jiftah-el and Cabul ( Joshua 19:27 ). It may be the same as Neah ( Joshua 19:13 ), but the place is not identified.
