NAPHATH-DOR

(Heb. nāpa dôr),

NAPHOTH-DOR

(Heb. nāpô dôr)

A city in the territory of Manasseh that participated in the league of northern kings led by Jabin, king of Hazor (Josh. 11:2; Naphoth-dor). It is considered to be the same as Dor. Although the ruler of Dor was defeated by Joshua (Josh. 12:23), Manasseh apparently did not take possession of the city (17:11-12; Judg. 1:27) and no Israelite cities were established. David conquered Dor during his reign, and Solomon later appointed Ben-abinadab as its district governor (1 Kgs. 4:11). Dor is identified with modern Khirbet el-Burj (142224), 14.5 km. (9 mi.) N of Caesarea and 19 km. (12 mi.) S of Mt. Carmel.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
