EZEL . The spot where Jonathan arranged to meet David before the latter’s final departure from the court of Saul ( 1 Samuel 20:19 ). The place is not mentioned elsewhere, and it is now generally admitted that the Heb. text of this passage is corrupt. The true reading seems to have been preserved by the LXX [Note: Septuagint.] , according to which we should read in 1 Samuel 20:19 ‘yonder cairn,’ and in 1 Samuel 20:41 ‘from beside the cairn.’
