En-dor

Listen from:
City with its towns, possessed by Manasseh though situated in Issachar. It was apparently the scene of the death of Sisera and of Jabin; and it was the residence of the woman with a familiar spirit consulted by Saul (Josh. 17:11; 1 Sam. 28:7; Psa. 83:9-10). Identified with Endor, 32° 38' N, 35° 23' E. The rock on which it stands has many caves, in one of which the witch may have carried on her incantations. From Gilboa it is distant 7 or 8 miles across difficult ground.
