AHLAB.A city of Asher (Jdg_1:31). The site has been Identified with the later Gush Halab or Giscala, now el-Jîsh in Upper Galilee; but this is, of course, uncertain.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909
A city of Asher, whence the Canaanites were not driven out (Jdg_1:31). More recently Gush Chaleb, or Giscala, whence came John, son of Levi, leader in the siege of Jerusalem; said to be the birthplace of Paul's parents. Now Eljish, near Safed, in the hills N.W. of the lake of Tiberias.

Ah'lab. (fertile). A city of Asher from which the Canaanites were not driven out. Jdg_1:31.
Smith's Bible Dictionary

a?lab (אחלב, 'aḥlābh, ?fat or fruitful?): A town of Asher. It is clear, however, that the Israelites failed to drive away the original inhabitants (Jdg_1:31). Some have identified Ahlab with Gush Halab or Geschila, Northwest of the Sea of Galilee.

Ahlab
(Hebrew Achlab', אְְחלָב, fatness, i e. fertile; Sept. Α᾿χλάβ v. r. Δαλάφ), a town of Asher, apparently near Zidon and Achzib, the native inhabitants of which the Israelites were unable to expel (Jdg_1:31). Its lying thus within the unconquered Phoenician border may be the reason of its omission in the list of the Asherite cities (Jos_19:24-31). It is supposed (see Schwarz, Palest. p. 198) that Achlab reappears in later history as Gush-Chalab (גּוּשׁ חָלבְ) or Giscala (Reland, Palest. p. 813, 817), a place lately identified by Robinson under the abbreviated name of el-Jish, near Safed, in the hilly country to the northwest of the sea of Galilee (Researches, new ed. 2:446; 3, 73). This place was in rabbinical times famous for its oil, and the old olive-trees still remain in the neighborhood (Reland and Robinson, ib.). From it came the famous John, son of Levi, the leader in the siege of Jerusalem (Joseph. Life, 10; War, 2, 21, 1), and it had a legendary celebrity as the birth-place of the parents of no less a person than the Apostle Paul (Jerome, Comment. ad Ep. ad Philem.). But this cannot be the Ahlab of Asher. SEE GISCHALA.
