IJON

Town assigned to Naphtali’s tribe in the extreme north of Palestine. Some identify it with Tell ed-Dibbon between the Litani River and Mt Hermon, but this is disputed. Ijon was one of the towns taken by Ben-hadad of Damascus during Baasha’s reign (c. 900 BC; 1 Kgs 15:20; 2 Chr 16:4). Tiglath-pileser III of Assyria captured the town and deported its people during Pekah’s reign (c. 733 BC; 2 Kgs 15:29).
