Dor (dwelling), Jos 17:11; 1Ki 4:11 an ancient royal city of the Canaanites, Jos 12:23 whose ruler was an ally of Jabin king of Hazor against Joshua. Jos 11:1,2 It appears to have been within the territory of the tribe of Asher, though allotted to Manasseh, Jos 17:11; Jud 1:27 Solomon stationed at Dor one of his twelve purveyors. 1Ki 4:11 jerome places it on the coast, "in the ninth mile from Caesarea, on the way to Ptolemais." Just at the point indicated is the small village of Tantura, probably an Arab corruption of Dora, consisting of about thirty houses, wholly constructed of ancient materials. |
