Ezekiel 47: | <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> <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 ''''' ( חתלון , <i> ''''' ḥethlōn ''''' </i> ; | <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> | ||
