The meaning of Elon (2) in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)e'-lon ('elon, a "terebinth"; Ailon): An unidentified town in the territory of Dan. named between Ithlah and Timnah (Joshua 19:43). It is possibly identical with Elon-beth-Hanan which, along with Shaalbim and Bethshemesh, formed one of Solomon's commissariat districts (I Kings 4:9). Conder has suggested Beit' Anan, about 4 miles Northwest of Neby Samwil: it is quite uncertain.
