(Hebrews Eyn Chatsor', ין חָצוֹר , Focntain Of Hazor, i.e., Of The Village; Sept. πηγὴ Ἀσώρ ), a fortified city of the tribe of Naphtali, mentioned between Edrei and Iron ( Joshua 19:37), but apparently different from Hazor ( Joshua 19:36). It has been identified by Schwarz (Palest. page 183) and Thomson (Land And Book, 1:515) with the Ain-Hazur not far N.W. of Tellhfazr (between Rameh or Ramah and Yakuk or Hukkok), which latter (being marked as a ruined site by Van de Velde, although Dr. Robinson, who visited it, denies that there are any traces of structures on the summit; Later Researches, page 81), was probably the location of the city itself. (See Hazor).
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [6]
en -hā´zor ( עין חצור , ‛ēn ḥācōr ; πηγὴ Ἀσόρ , pēgḗ Asór ̌ : A city in the territory of Naphtali mentioned along with Kedesh, Edrei and Iron ( Joshua 19:37 ). The ancient name probably survives in that of Hazı̄reh , on the slopes West of Kedesh. "En" however points to a fountain. and no fountain has been found here.
