Hannathon (town in Zebulun)
This place name designates a town allotted to the tribe of Zebulun in the land division. Joshua 19:14 locates it on the border of Zebulun's territory. The exact site is uncertain, though some scholars have proposed identification with Kefr 'Anan in Galilee, on the border between Upper and Lower Galilee. The name may be related to words for grace or favor, a common element in place names.
Senses
1. sense 1 — Joshua 19:14 places Hannathon at the northern boundary of Zebulun's inheritance. The multilingual glosses preserve the name form: English 'Hannathon,' Spanish 'Hanatón,' French and German also 'Hannathon.' The boundary description traces the border to Hannathon and then to the Valley of Iphtahel. The Septuagint variations (Amoth, Ennathoth, Anathoth) suggest textual uncertainty in transmission, but the Hebrew form is stable. Geographic precision is difficult, as many ancient Galilean sites remain unidentified. 1×
