2 Samuel 24:6. Visited by Joab in taking the census for David; lying on the route between Gilead and Zidon. Septuagint and Vulgate read "Dan in the wood" (Dan-jaar), corresponding to the country about Tel-el-Kady. Baal-jaan, a Phoenician god's name, is found upon coins. The Dan forming the northern bound of Israel at the sources of the Jordan is probably meant.
