Hazor (castle). 1. A fortified city, which on the occupation of the country was allotted to Naphtali. Jos 19:36 Its position was apparently between Ramah and Kedesh, ibid. Jos 12:19 on the high ground overlooking the Lake of Merom. There is no reason for supposing it a different place from that of which Jabin was king. Jos 11:1; Jud 4:2,17; 1Sa 12:9 It was the principal city of the whole of north Israel. Jos 11:10 It was fortified by Solomon, 1Ki 9:15 and its inhabitants were carried captive by Tiglath-pileser. 2Ki 15:29 The most probable site of Hazor is Tell Khuraibeh. 2. One of the "cities" of Judah in the extreme south, named next in order to Kedesh. Jos 15:23 3. Hazor-Hadattah = "new Hazor" another of the southern towns of Judah. Jos 15:25 4. A place in which the Benjamites resided after their return from the captivity. Ne 11:33 |
