A Shephelah town in the catalog of Judahs lowland inheritance
ShephelahDilean was a Shephelah town in Judah's tribal inheritance named in Joshua 15:38 in the catalog of the cities of the second lowland district: "And Dilean, and Mizpeh, and Joktheel." The town appears only in this single boundary list. It lay somewhere in the inner Shephelah between the central highlands and the Philistine plain. The site is uncertain but may be identified with Tell en-Najileh or one of several smaller tells in the southern Shephelah whose ancient names have been lost.
