<p> (Heb. E'bets, <span> אֶבֶוֹ </span> <span> , </span> in pause <span> אָבֶוֹ </span> <span> A <span> ‘ </span> bets, lustre, </span> and hence, perhaps, <span> tin; </span> Sept. <span> ‘Αεμές </span> , Vulg. <span> Abes), </span> a town in the tribe of Issachar, apparently near the border, mentioned between [[Kishion]] and [[Remeth]] ( <span> [[Joshua]] 19:20 </span> ). It is probably the <span> Abesap </span> ( <span> Ἀβέσαρος </span> ) mentioned by [[Josephus]] <span> (Ant. </span> 6:13, 8) as the native city of the wife whom [[David]] had married prior to [[Abigail]] and after his deprival of Michal; possibly referring to [[Ahinoam]] the [[Jezreelitess]] ( <span> 1 [[Samuel]] 25:43 </span> ), as if she had been so called as having resided in some town of the valley of Esdraelon. According to Schwarz <span> (Palest. </span> p. 167), "it is probably the village of <span> Kunebiz, </span> called also <span> Karm en-Abiz, </span> which lies three [[English]] miles west-south-west from Iksal;" meaning the <span> Khuneifis </span> or <span> Ukhneifis </span> of Robinson <span> (Researches, </span> 3, 167, 218), which is in the general locality indicated by the associated names. </p> <p> ADDENDUM FROM VOLUME 11: </p> <p> Lieuit. Coitier (Tent Work, 2, 334) thinks this is the ruined site Khurbet el- Beida, marked on the [[Ordnance]] [[Map]] eight miles west of [[Nazareth]] and two south-west of Beit-Lahm, remarking (Quar. [[Report]] of the "Pal. Explor. Fund," Jan. 1881, p. 49) that "the [[Arabic]] exactly corresponds [?] to the Hebrew, with the same meaning, <span> ‘ </span> white'" but this seems doubtful. </p> | |||
