Dabbasheth
Dabbasheth
(Heb. Dabbe’sheth, , a camel’s hump, as in Isa 30:6, q. d. Camel- hump Hill; Sept. , Alex. , Vat. ; Vulg. Debbaseth), a place on the boundary-line of the tribe of Zebulon, between Maralah and Jokneam (Jos 19:11; see Keil, Comment. in loc.); apparently the modern Jebata, which seems likewise to correspond to one of the places named Gabatha (Euseb. and ), located, by Jerome (Onomast. s.v. Gabathon) near Diocaesarea, in the plain of Legio (Robinson, Researches, 3, 201, whose map places it east of Uknufis, apparently by an error; see Van de Velde, Memoir, p. 1-10). It was again visited by Dr. Robinson (Later Res. p. 113), but is not described by him (comp. Ritter, Erdkunde, 16:748). Knobel suggests (Jos. Erklart, p. 458) that the name in the Onomasticon may have arisen from a Hebrew epithet (, i.e. Gibeath, q. d. the hill of the plain), a view which its isolation from the camel ridge seems to confirm (Ritter, 16:700), although the modern village seems to be upon a very slight, if any eminence.

Dabbasheth (2)
Tristram (Bible Places, page 252) thinks this is “the modern Duweibeh,” “between Joknean (Keimfln) and the sea, along the south boundary of Carmel,” thus making the line of Zebulun include the crest of Carmel, and doubtless referring to Khurbet ed-Duweibeh, which the Ordnance Map lays down at one and one half miles north-west from Tell-Keimln, and which the Memoirs (1:311) describe as “heaps of stones, well cut and of good size, apparently Byzantine work;” but Trelawney Saunders (Map of the Old Test.) adopts the suggestion of Jebata, as in volume 2, page 638, described in the Memoirs (1:274) as “a small mud hamlet in the plain, said only to contain eighty souls.”
