Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature

(Hebrews Aznoth' Tabor', תָּבוֹר אִזְנוֹתּ , Ears [i.e. Summits] Of Tabor [comp. Uzzen-Sherah, "Chisloth-Tabor"]; Sept. Ἀζνωθθαβώρ ), a town on the western border of Naphtali, between the Jordan and Hukkok ( Joshua 19:34). It is placed by Eusebius (Onomast. s.v. Ἀσανώθ ) in a plain not far from Diocesarea. Neither of these notices, however, would allow a position near Tabor, as the name implies; for the territory of Zebulon, at least, intervened. (See Tribe). They may, however, be somewhat combined in a conjectural locality at the eastern edge of the plain el-Buttauf, in the vicinity of Kurn Hattin.
