Abdon

ABDON (2)ab'-don (`abhdon, perhaps "service"): One of the four Levitical cities in the tribe of Asher (Joshua 21:30 1 Chronicles 6:74). Probably the same with Ebron (in the King James Version "Hebron") in Joshua 19:28, where some copies have the reading Abdon. Now called Abdeh, a few miles from the Mediterranean and about fifteen miles south of Tyre.

Mishal (Abdon)

MISHALmi'-shal (mish'al): A town in the territory of Asher (Joshua 19:26, the King James Version "Misheal," Maasa), assigned to the Gershonite Levites (Joshua 21:30; Codex Vaticanus Bassellan; Codex Alexandrinus Masaal equals "Mashal" of 1 Chronicles 6:74). Eusebius, Onomasticon (s.v. "Masan") places it near Carmel by the sea. It is not identified.
