A town W of Mt. Tabor, in Issachar’s territory (1 Chron 6:72) allotted to the Bershonite Levites (Josh 21:27, 28 KJV DABAREH, and apparently on Zebulun’s border (Josh 19:10, 12).

A city in the territory of Issachar, on the boundary between that tribe and Zebulun (Jos 19:12). It was assigned to the Gershonite Levites (Jos 21:28; 1Ch 6:72). The most probable identification is with Dabuiriyeh, a village on the lower western slopes of Tabor.
