(Hebrew Amad’, , people of duration; Sept. v. r. , Vulg. ), a town near the border of Asher mentioned between Alammelech and Misheal, as if in a southerly or westerly course (Jos 19:26). Schwarz (Palest. p. 192) thinks it is the modern village Al-Mead, a few miles north of Acco, meaning apparently the place called Em el-Amed, with extensive ruins near the sea-coast, the identity of which with the ancient Amad is also suggested by Thomson (Land and Book, 1, 469); but we should otherwise look for a more south-easterly position, and one on the boundary. The same objection applies to the location proposed by Van de Velde (Memoir, p. 284) at Um el-‘Amad, on the shore south of Tyre, which, however, contains no ruins (Robinson, later Researches, 3, 113). It may not improbably be identified with Shefa ‘Omar or Shefa ‘Amar (perhaps for ), a large market-town on a ridge east of Haifa, with streets of shops and a large deserted castle (Robinson, later Researches, 3, 103).<\/p>\n
Amad<\/p>\n
Tristram thinks this is the little mound with traces of ruins, called Un el- Amad, five miles west of Wady el-Malek (Bible Places, p. 215); meaning the Um el-Amvad of Robinson (Later Researches, p. 113, note), who, however, observes that the people of Bethlehem [Beit-lahm of Zebulun adjoining] said there were no columns there, as the name (mother of columns) would imply. The place is laid down on the Ordnance Map as Umm el-Amed, a village without any signs of ruins, one mile south of west from Beit-lahm, in the hills north of the plain of Esdraelon; but the situation is rather far east to have been included in the territory of Asher.<\/p>\n
