Tavor
Опис
Tabor — visina. (1.) Sada Jebel et-Tur, planina u obliku konusa, 11 milja zapadno od Galilejskog mora. Visoka je oko 1.843 stope. Pogled s njenog vrha se smatra izuzetno širokim i veličanstvenim. Ovo se pominje u [Ps 89:12 ]; [Jer 46:18 ]. Ovde je Barak logorovao pre bitke sa Siserom (vidi) [Sud 4:6 –14]. Postoji stara tradicija, koja je, međutim, neosnovana, da je to bilo mesto preobraženja našeg Gospoda. (Vidi HERMON.) “Istaknutost i izolovanost Tabora, koji stoji, kako to čini, na granici između severnih i južnih plemena, između planina i centralne ravnice, učinila ga je značajnim mestom u svim vekovima, i očigledno je navela psalmistu da ga poveže sa Hermonom, jednim simbolom juga, a drugim severa.” Postoje neki koji i dalje veruju da je ovo bilo mesto preobraženja (vidi).

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).
