Joshua 19:27

and turneth toward the sunrising From the Shihor-libnath, the border, still keeping to the south of Carmel, turned in an easterly direction towards Beth-dagon, of which we know as little as of the Beth-dagon of Judah, above, Joshua 15:41.

and reacheth to Zebulun Thence it trended in a north-easterly direction, and "touched the border of Zebulun," and the valley, or ravine, of Jiphthah-el, where, according to Joshua 19:14, were "the outgoings" of the north-western boundary of the latter tribe; and passed on north of Beth-emekand Neiel(which has been identified with Mi'ar), "and went out to Cabul on the left hand," i.e. on the north side of it.

Cabul it is thought, may be considered as still existing in the modern Kabûl, found about eight or nine miles east of Akka, and thus on the very borders of Galilee. It is possible, therefore, that there may be some connection between this place and the district containing twenty cities, which was presented by Solomon to Hiram, king of Tyre (1 Kings 9:11-13). See Smith's Bibl. Dict. under Cabul.
