<p> ''''' heth´lon ''''' ( חתלון , <i> ''''' ḥethlōn ''''' </i> ; Peshitta <i> ''''' ḥethrōn ''''' </i> ): Name of a place associated with [[Zedad]] on the ideal northern boundary of Israel, as given in Ezekiel 47:15 and Ezekiel 48:1 , but not named in Numbers 34:8 , while the [[Septuagint]] evidently translated the text it had. In accordance with the opinion they hold as to the boundary line of Northern Israel, van Kasteren and Buhl seek to identify [[Hethlon]] with <i> ''''''Adlun''''' </i> on the river <i> '''''Qasmiyeh''''' </i> . Much more in harmony with the line of the other border towns given is its identification with <i> '''''Heitala''''' </i> to the Northeast of Tripoli. The "way of Hethlon" would then coincide with the [[Eleutherus]] valley, between Homs and the Mediterranean, through which the railway now runs, and to this identification the Septuagint seems to give testimony, indicating some path of "descent" from the <i> '''''Biqa'a''''' </i> . </p>

<p> <strong> HETHLON </strong> . A place mentioned by Ezekiel ( Ezekiel 47:15; Ezekiel 48:1 ) as situated on the ideal northern boundary of Israel. Furrer identifies it with the present <em> Heiteta </em> , N.E. of Tripoli; and von Kasteren and others favour <em> ’Adlun </em> , north of the mouth of the Kasimiyyeh. </p> <p> W. M. Nesbit. </p>

<p> Place spoken of as 'the way of Hethlon:' only mentioned as the border of the land in the north to be possessed by [[Israel]] in the future. It is in the locality of Hamath. It is supposed to be identified with 'the entrance of Hamath.' Ezekiel 47:15; Ezekiel 48:1 . </p>

<p> Heth'lon. (hiding-place). The name of a place on the northern border of Palestine. Ezekiel 47:15; Ezekiel 48:1. In all probability, the "way of Hethlon", is the pass at the northern end of Lebanon, and is, thus, identical with "the entrance of Hamath", in Numbers 34:8 etc. </p>

<p> (Heb. Chethlon', חֶתְלֹן, wrappedup, i.e. a hiding-place; Vulg. Hethalon), a place the approach (דֶּרֶךְ, "way") to which lay on the northern border of Palestine, between the [[Mediterranean]] and Zedad, in the direction of [[Hamath]] (Ezekiel 47:15; Ezekiel 48:1). In all probability the "way of Hethlon" is the pass at the (N. or S.) end of Lebanon, from the sea-coast of the Mediterranean to the great plain of Hamath, and is thus identical with "the entrance of Hamath" (q.v.)in Numbers 34:8, etc. See Porter, [[Five]] Years in Damascus, 2, 356. </p>
