SHEN (‘the tooth or crag’).—A well-known place ‘the Shen,’ named with Mizpah to indicate the position of the stone which was set up by Samuel to commemorate the defeat of the Philistines (1Sa_7:12). The site is unknown.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


1Sa_7:12. Samuel set up the memorial of the Lord's deliverance from the Philistines, the stone Ebenezer, between Mizpah and Shen, i.e. the teeth, a projecting point of rock (compare 1Sa_14:4-5 margin).
Fausset's Bible Dictionary

Shen. (tooth). A place mentioned only in 1Sa_7:12. Nothing is known of it.
Smith's Bible Dictionary
By Dr. William Smith.Published in 1863


shen (ההשׁן, ha-shēn, ?the tooth? or ?peak?; τῆς παλαιᾶς, tḗs palaiás): A place named only in 1Sa_7:12 to indicate the position of the stone set up by Samuel in connection with the victory over the Philistines, ?between Mizpah and Shen.? The Septuagint evidently reads yāshān, ?old.? Probably we should here read yeshānāh, as in 2Ch_13:19 (OHL, under the word). Then it may be represented by ‛Ain Sı̄nia, to the North of Beitı̄n.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

(Heb. with the art., hash-Shen, הִשֵּׁ, the tooth Sept. ἡ παλαι¡α Vulg. Sen), a place mentioned only in Samuel 7:12, defining the spot at which Samuel set up the stone Ebenezer to commemorate the rout of the Philistines. The pursuit had extended to “below Bethcar,” and the stone was erected “between the Mizpah and between the Shen.” The Targum has Shinna. The Peshito-Syriac and Arabic versions render both Bethcar and Shen by Beit- Jasan, evidently following the Sept., which appears to have read ישׁ yashan, i.e. old. The name indicates not a village, but merely a sharp rock or conspicuous crag in the vicinity, like Seneh (1Sa_14:4). SEE EBENEZER.
