MADON.A royal city of the Canaanites in the north (Jos_11:1; Jos_12:19). Khirbet Madin near Hattîn might suit. If, however, Madon he a scribal error for Maron, then Meirôn, at the foot of Jebel Jermuk, may be the place intended.

A leading Canaanite city, whose king Jobab was killed at Merom with Jabiu's confederates (Jos_11:1; Jos_12:19).

Ma'don. (strife). One of the principal cities of Canaan before the conquest, probably in the north. Its king joined Jabin and his confederates in their attempt against Joshua at the waters of Xierom, and like the rest was killed. Jos_11:1; Jos_12:19.

El-Medineh, ?the city,? on the heights West of the Sea of Galilee, with which it might possibly be identified, probably dates only from Moslem times. It seems likely that the common confusion of the Hebrew letter daleth ()ד for the Hebrew letter resh ()ר has occurred, and that we should read ?Maron.? The place may be then identified with Meirōn, a village with ancient ruins and rock tombs at the foot of Jebel Jermuk, a little to the Northwest of Ṣafed.

Madon
(Heb. hadon', מָדוֹן, strife, as in Pro_15:18, etc.; Sept. Μαδών v. r. Μαρῶν), a Canaanitish city in the north of Palestine, ruled over by a king named Jobab in the time of Joshua, who captured it (Jos_11:1; Jos_12:19). Calmet (Dict. s.v.), arbitrarily conjecturing that Maron is the true reading, refers to Maronia, a small village of Syria thirty miles east of Antioch (Jerome, Vit. Malachi 2), probably the place alluded to by Ptolemy (5:15, 8, Μαρωνιάς) as lying in the province of Chalcidtice. Schwarz infers (Palest. p. 90, 173) from labbinical notices (chiefly a statement of the early Jewish traveler hap-Parchi in Asher's Benj. of Tudela, p. 430) that the site is that of the present Kefrenda, a considerable village at the foot of the hills north of Diocaesarea, containing a very deep well and some traces of antiquity, which Dr. Robinson (new edit. of Researches, 3:109-111) is inclined to regard as marking the place of the Asochis of Josephus (Lije, 41, 45, 68; War, 1:4, 2; int. 13:12, 4), although admitting that the latter may be referred to Tell ed-Bedawiveh, in the vicinity.
In the Sept. version of 2Sa_21:20, the Hebrew words אֵישׁ מָדוֹןa man of stature,' are rendered ἀνὴρ Μαδών, a man of Madon.' This may refer to the town Madon, or may be merely an instance of the habit which these translators had of rendering literally in (Greek letters Hebrew words which they did not understand. Other instances will be found in 2Ki_6:8; 2Ki_9:13; 2Ki_12:9; 2Ki_15:16, etc.
