Hazar-Enan

VIEW:36 DATA:01-04-2020
HAZAR-ENAN (once Eze_47:17 Hazar-enon).—A place mentioned in Num_34:9-10 as the northern boundary of Israel, and in Eze_47:17; Eze_48:1 as one of the ideal boundaries. It was perhaps at the sources of the Orontes. See also Hazer-hatticon.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


("village of springs".) Here the northern boundary terminated (Num_34:9-10), and the eastern boundary began. Identified with Ayun ed Dara, a fountain in the midst of the central chain of Antilibanus; in Van de Velde's map, latitude 33 degrees 49', longitude 36 degrees 12'. Ruins mark the spot. Thus, the E. and W. declivities of the northern part of the Antilibanus range, excluding the Damascus plain and its contiguous valleys, were included in the borders of the promised land (Speaker's Commentary, Num_34:9).

Hazar-enan
(Heb. Chatsar'-Eynan', חֲעִר עֵינָן, village of fountains, also [in Eze_47:17] HA'ZARE'NON, Chatsar'-Eynon', חֲצִר עֵינוֹןid.; Sept. Α᾿σερναϊvν or ἡ αὐλή τοῦ Αἰναν), a place on the boundary of Palestine, apparently at the north-eastern corner, between Ziphron and Shepham (Num_34:9-10), not far from the district of Hamath, in Damascene Syria (Eze_47:17; Eze_48:1). Schwarz (Palestine, p. 20, note) thinks it identical with the village DeirHanon, in the valley of the Fijeh or Amana, near Damascus; but there is no probability that this was included within the limits of Canaan. “Porter would identify Hazar-enan with Kuryetein=‘the two cities,' a village more than sixty miles east-north- east of Damascus, the chief ground for the identification apparently being the presence at Kuryetein of ‘large fountains,' the only ones in that ‘vast region,' a circumstance with which the name of Hazar-enan well agrees (Damascus, 1, 252; 2, 358). The great distance from Damascus and the body of Palestine is the main impediment to the reception of this identification” (Smith). We must therefore seek for Hazar-enan somewhere in the well-watered tract at the northwestern foot of Mount Hermon, perhaps the present Hasbeya, near which are four springs (Ain Kunieb, A. Tinta, A. Ata, and A. Hersha). SEE HASPETA.
