Gora Tabor

Opis

Taborvišina. (1.) Zdaj Jebel et-Tur, stožčasta izstopajoča gora, 11 milj zahodno od Galilejskega morja. Visoka je približno 1.843 čevljev. Pogled z njenega vrha je znan kot izjemno obsežen in veličasten. To je omenjeno v [Ps 89:12 ]; [Jer 46:18 ]. Tukaj je Barak taboril pred bitko s Siserom (glej) [Sod 4:6 –14]. Obstaja stara tradicija, ki pa je neutemeljena, da je bila to prizorišče Jezusove spremenitve. (Glej HERMON.) “Izpostavljenost in osamljenost Tabora, ki stoji na meji med severnimi in južnimi plemeni, med gorami in osrednjo ravnino, sta ga v vseh obdobjih naredila za pomembno mesto in očitno spodbudila psalmista, da ga poveže s Hermonom, enim emblematičnim za jug, drugim za sever.” Nekateri še vedno verjamejo, da je bilo to prizorišče spremenitve (glej).

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).
