Hazar-Enan
Open directlyEaston's Bible Dictionary · 1897
Village of fountains, a place on the north-east frontier of Palestine (Num. 34:9, 10). Some have identified it with Ayan ed-Dara in the heart of the central chain of Anti-Libanus. More probably, however, it has been identified with Kuryetein, about 60 miles east-north-east of Damascus. (Comp. Ezek. 47:17; 48:1.)

HA'ZAR-E'NAN (fountain, village), a boundary of the Promised Land. Num 34:9-10; Eze 47:17; Eze 48:1. Porter would identify it with Kuryetein, 60 miles east-north-east of Damascus, where are large fountains, fragments of columns, and other ruins, but this is too far north; Canon Cook suggests Ayon ed-Dara, a fountain in the heart of the central chain of Anti-Libanus.
