Mount Tabor, called by the Arabs Djebel Tour, is almost
entirely insulated, and rises up in the plain of Esdraelon,
about six miles from Nazareth, in a conical form, somewhat
like a sugar-loaf. Josephus states its height to be thirty
stadia, with a plain of 26; stadia in circumference on its top,
on which was formerly a city, which was used as a military
post. It is described as an exceedingly beautiful mountain,
having a rich soil, producing excellent herbage, and adorned
with groves and clumps of trees.
