Textual variant Iesrael (Greek).
The LXX has this place name where the MT only has "fountain in Israel." It is in the vicinity of Mt.Thabor (K. 22:4, 98:23). The name is perpetuated at 'Andūr . Perhaps the same as Eddēr (K. 94:22) of Saul which is located near Nain and so also near Thabōr. 'Andūr has no ancient ruins and is not a tell. It has been suggested that nearby Kh es safsafeh is the place and it does have evidence of lengthy occupation.
In Interpretation of Hebrew Names "Aendor, eye or well of the generation" (102) and "Endor well of the generation" (93).
151. Aphek (Afec). I Samuel 29:1; K. 34:11; L. 243:28.
Textual variant Apher (Greek).
One of the many confused Apheks in Scripture and the Onomasticon . By inference this is said to be near the above Aendōr. Eusebius gives no location data which is not directly from the Bible.
152. Arma. I Samuel 30:26, 30; K. 34:13; L. 243:30.
In Samuel there are a number of towns which are listed in the Onomasticon with no other information than the biblical reference to David's spoils (I Samuel 30:26f.). This may possibly be identical with K. 88:1 below.
153. Athach. I Samuel 30:26, 30; K. 34:14; L. n/a; Lacuna in Greek Text.
Textual variant Athlac (Latin).
This entry is missing in the Vatican manuscript. Only information is on the spoils as in the above Arma. LXX also has Athach for Ether (K. 88:3) in Joshua 15:42.
154. Amma. II Samuel 2:24; K. 34:15; L. 243:31.
One of the entries where only the Scripture is quoted for location and identity.
155. Aeththam Adassai (Aethon Adasai). II Samuel 24:6; K. 34:16; L. 243:32.
Textual variant Arnmeiththa (Greek).
Perhaps the same as Thaad in K. 100:19. Only Hexaplaric information.
In Interpretation of Hebrew Names "Ammeta, light" (89) and "Adasa, new" (89).
156. Alōn Area Orna. II Samuel 24:16; K. 34:17; L. 243:33.
Textual variant 'orion (Greek).
This is not a place in the MT but refers to a person who is a Jebusite and is connected with Jerusalem. The identification of Eusebius is in the biblical passage Joshua 18:28 (cf. K. 106:7 below). 'Alōn and Area both are proper translations of MT "threshing floor."
157. Assour. I Kings 9:15; K. 34:18; L. 243:34.
This item is out of order and may be an editorial addition. The Roman Ioudaia is indicated here rather than the Old Testament Jouda. If this is one of the cities Solomon built it is a textual variant for Hazōr (K. 20:1). This same annotation occurs in K. 90:9, 132:2 and 134:1, 3.
In Interpretation of Hebrew Names "Assur, directing or beauty or stepping or accusing" (60) and "Assur beauty or step" (78).
158. Abelmaelai (Abelmaula). I Kings 4:12; K. 34:20; L. 243:35.
Textual variant Bethaula (Latin).
