DABERATH
A Levitical town in the borders of Zebulun and Issachar, Jos 19:25 ; 21:28; 1Ch 6:72 . Its site is probably that of the modern Deburieh, a small village at the foot of mount Tabor on the northwest.

Daberath
(Heb. Daberath’, [once, Jos 19:12, with the art. had- Daberath’, ; once, 1Ch 6:72, Dobrath’, ], according to Furst a fem. form of , pasture; Sept. in Joshua and v. r. , in Chron. v. r. ; Vulg. Dabereth), a town in the tribe of Issachar (Jos 21:28, where the A.V. has Dabareh), near the border of Zebulon (Jos 19:12, where it is named next to Chisloth-tabor), and assigned to the Levites (1Ch 6:72). It is probably the same with the village Dabira (), mentioned by Eusebius and Jerome (Onomast. s.v.) as lying near Matthew Tabor, in the region of Diocaesarea (Reland, Paloest. p. 737); and also the Dabaritta, repeatedly mentioned by Josephus ( , War, 2:21, 3; , Life, 26; v. r. , Life, 62) as lying in the great plain on the confines of Galilee (Reland, Paloest. p. 737, too nicely objects that the border between Issachar and Zebulon would not be assigned to Galilee). In exact agreement with these notices there still exists, on the side of a ledge of rocks just at the base of Matthew Tabor, on the north-west, the village Deburieh, a small, poor, and filthy place, containing the bare walls of an old church, based upon massive foundations of a still older date. The situation, however, is beautiful, with the wooded heights of Tabor rising behind, and in front the plain of Esdraelon expanding like a sea of verdure (Robinson, Res. 3, 210; Maundrell, Early Trav. p. 479, Ritter, Erdk. 16:679; De Saulcy, Narrative, 1:75; Schwarz, Palest. p. 166,167). Tradition (Van de Velde, 2:374) incorrectly makes this the scene of the miracle on the lunatic child performed by our Lord after his descent from the Mount of Transfiguration (Mat 17:14).

The Memoirs (1:363) accompanying the Ordnance Map of Western Palestine contain the following additional notice of this place: “Deburieh a small village built of stone, with inhabited caves; contains about two hundred Moslems, and is surrounded by gardens of figs and olives. It is situated on the slope of the hill. Water is obtained from cisterns in the village.” “It has several Protestant families, the fruits of the English Church mission” (Tristram, Bible Places, page 235).
