Ellparan [1]

[many Ellpa'ran] (Hebrew Eyl Paran, אֵיל פָּארָן , Oak Of Paran; Sept. Τερέβινθός [v.r. Τερέμιμθος ] Τῆς Φαράν , Vulg. Campestria Pharan), a spot (hounding on the south the territory of the Rephaimn smitten by Chedorlaomer) on the edge of the wilderness bordering the territory of the Horites or Idumaea, probably marked by a noted Tree ( Genesis 14:6). (See Oak); (See Paran). An ingenious writer in the Jour. Of Sac. Lit. (October 1851, page 153 note) argues, from the rendering of the Sept., for the identity of El-paran with Elath, but inconclusively.
