Idalah
Idalah
(Heb. Yidalah’, , probably exalted; Sept. ), a city near the western border of Zebulon, mentioned between Shimron and Bethlehem (Jos 19:15). According to Schwarz, it is called Chirii in the Talmud, and is identical with the village Kelluh al. Chire, six English miles southwest of Shimron or Semunie (Palestine, p. 172). He doubtless refers to the niace marked on Robinson’s map as Kulat el-Kireh, in the valley of the Kishon, south-west of Semunieh or imonias; a position not improbable. especially if marked by the ruins on the north side of the river. Dr. Robinson, who afterwards visited it, calls it Jeida, a miserable village with no traces of antiquity (Later Researches, p. 113); but Van de Velde shows that it actually has many marks, although now much obliterated, of being an off site (Memoir, p. 322).

For this site Tristram (Bible Places, page 242) and Conder (Tent Work, 2:337) propose ed-Dalieh, on Carmel, eight and a half miles south-east of Haifa, and. thus described in the Memoirs accompanying the Ordnance Survey (2:281): “A stone village of moderate size, on a knoll of one of the spurs running out of the main water-shed (or ridge) of Carmel. On the south there is a well, and a few springs on the west. On the north is a little plain, or open valley, cultivated with corn. The inhabitants are all Druses, numbered by consul Rogers in 1859 at 300 souls.” But this position is entirely beyond the bounds of Zebulon, and the modern name Dalieh is too indefinite for identification, being likewise applied to another village on the ridge of Carmel, six and a half miles farther south-east. The site Kefr Kireh (proposed by Schwarz) lying one and a quarter miles south by west from Tell Keimnn (Joknean), is described in the Memoirs (2:60) as “evidently an ancient site,” with traces of ruins and broken pottery on the hill and tombs in the vicinity; a good supply of water, and a small mill. The village of Jeida is an entirely different locality, two and a half miles west of Semunieh, and destitute of antiquities (Memoirs, 1:270).

Idalah
ida-la, i-dala (, yidh’alah): A town in the territory of Zebulun, named with Shimron and Beth-lehem (Jos 19:15). The Talmud identifies it with Huryeh (Talm Jerusalem on Megh., I, 1). This, Conder thinks, may be represented by the modern Khirbet el-Huwara to the South of Beit Lahm.
