Subjects in this Topic:
LASSHARON.—A town taken by Joshua (Jos_12:18). LXX [Note: Septuagint.] B reads here ‘the king of Aphek in Sharon.’ The Onomasticon gives the name of ‘Sharon’ to a second district, viz. that between Mount Tabor and Tiberias. The name Sarôna attaches to an ancient site on the plateau, 61/2 miles S.W. of Tiberias, which may possibly represent Lassharon (Conder).
