HALAK, THE MOUNT
Open directlyHastings Dictionary of the Bible · 1898
HA'LAK, THE MOUNT (the smooth or the bald mountain), the name of a mountain marking the southern limit of Joshua's conquests. Josh 11:17; Acts 12:7. It has been variously identified with the range of hills parallel with Beer-sheba, with the modern Jebel el-Mukrek, 60 miles south of the Dead Sea, and with the range of white hills 8 miles south of the Dead Sea, and which divides the Ghor, to the north, from the Arabah, to the south.
