Tabori mägi
Kirjeldus
Tabor — kõrgus. (1.) Praegu Jebel et-Tur, koonusetaoline silmapaistev mägi, mis asub 11 miili Galilea järvest läänes. Selle kõrgus on umbes 1,843 jalga. Tippu vaade on öeldud olevat erakordselt ulatuslik ja suurejooneline. Sellele viidatakse [Ps 89:12 ]; [Jr 46:18 ]. Siin laagerdas Barak enne lahingut Siseraga (vt. Sisera) [Km 4:6 –14]. On olemas vana traditsioon, mis on siiski alusetu, et see oli meie Issanda muutumise koht. (Vaata HERMON.) “Tabori silmapaistvus ja isoleeritus, seistes nagu see teeb, põhjapoolsete ja lõunapoolsete suguharude, mägede ja keskse tasandiku piiril, tegi sellest kõigil ajastutel tähelepanuväärse koha ning ilmselgelt viis laulik seostama seda Hermoniga, üks sümboliseerides lõunat, teine põhja.” On neid, kes usuvad endiselt, et see oli muutumise koht (vt. muutmine).

Tabor
a height.
(1.) Now Jebel et-Tur, a cone-like prominent mountain, 11 miles west of the Sea of Galilee. It is about 1,843 feet high. The view from the summit of it is said to be singularly extensive and grand. This is alluded to in (Ps 89:12 ; Jer 46:18). It was here that Barak encamped before the battle with Sisera (q.v.) (Judg 4:6-14). There is an old tradition, which, however, is unfounded, that it was the scene of the transfiguration of our Lord. (See HERMON)
"The prominence and isolation of Tabor, standing, as it does, on the border-land between the northern and southern tribes, between the mountains and the central plain, made it a place of note in all ages, and evidently led the psalmist to associate it with Hermon, the one emblematic of the south, the other of the north." There are some who still hold that this was the scene of the transfiguration (q.v.).
(2.) A town of Zebulum (1Chr 6:77).
(3.) The "plain of Tabor" (1Sam 10:3) should be, as in the Revised Version, "the oak of Tabor." This was probably the Allon-bachuth of (Gen 35:8).
