מֵרוֹם

(mee' rahm) Place name meaning, “high place.” Place in Galilee where Joshua led Israel to defeat a coalition of Canaanite tribes under king Jabin of Hazor in a surprise attack (Joshua 11:1-7 ). The location of the site has been debated, but now appears to be the modern Merion. The town is near a wadi which is fed annually by a spring during the wet season. Thutmose III and Rameses II of Egypt claimed to have captured the area during their respective reigns.
