It is called a “mother in Israel”, i.e., a metropolis (2 Sam. 20:19<\/span>). It was besieged by Joab (2 Sam. 20:14<\/span>), by Benhadad (1 Kings 15:20<\/span>), and by Tiglath-pileser (2 Kings 15:29<\/span>) about B.C. 734. It is elsewhere called Abel-maim, meadow of the waters, (2 Chr. 16:4<\/span>). Its site is occupied by the modern Abil or Abil-el-kamh, on a rising ground to the east of the brook Derdarah, which flows through the plain of Huleh into the Jordan, about 6 miles to the west-north-west of Dan.<\/p>\n We meet with this name, 2Sa 20:15.
