Horem

Horem ("consecrated" or "devoted") was one of the nineteen fortified cities of Naphtali's tribal inheritance named in the catalog at Joshua 19:38: "And Iron, and Migdal-el, Horem, and Beth-anath, and Beth-shemesh." The town appears only in this single boundary list and is uncertain in location. It lay somewhere in the upper Galilee fortified-town belt that filled Naphtali's territory between the Sea of Galilee and the Lebanon mountains — country repeatedly contested with the Aramean kingdoms to the north.
