Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from עַיִן (H5869) meaning "spring" or "fountain" and חָצוֹר (H2674) meaning "village" or "enclosure."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for En-Chatsor, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun referring to a geographical location in the Old Testament. Usage: En-Chatsor is a proper noun used to denote a specific location in the territory of Naphtali, mentioned in the context of the allotment of land to the tribes of Israel. Context: En-Chatsor is referenced in the Old Testament as a town within the inheritance of the tribe of Naphtali. It is listed among the fortified cities in Joshua 19:37: "Kedesh, Edrei, En-Hazor." The name suggests a location characterized by a natural water source, likely a spring, which was significant for the settlement and sustenance of the inhabitants. The prefix "En" indicates the presence of a spring, which was a common feature for settlements in ancient Israel, providing essential water resources. The association with Hazor, a prominent Canaanite city, suggests that En-Chatsor may have been a satellite village or a nearby settlement that shared its name. The strategic importance of such locations often lay in their access to water and their role in regional defense and agriculture.
