About Hazer-hatticon
Hazer-hatticon, meaning "the middle village," was a place mentioned in the prophet Ezekiel's vision of the restored land of Israel (Ezk.47.16). It was located on the ideal northern border of the land, between the territories of Damascus and Hamath. The context suggests that Hazer-hatticon is another name for Hazar-enan, a town also mentioned in the description of Israel's borders (Num.34.9-10). Its exact location is uncertain, but it was likely situated in the region of modern-day Lebanon or Syria.
