Places › Helbon
Helbon is a town in the Bible, about 230 km (143 miles) north-east of Jerusalem. The King James Version names it in 1 verse, Ezekiel 27:18.
Fat; i.e., “fertile”, (Ezek. 27: 18 only), a place whence wine was brought to the great market of Tyre. It has been usually identified with the modern Aleppo, called Haleb by the native Arabs, but is more probably to be found in one of the villages in the Wady Helbon, which is celebrated for its grapes, on the east slope of Anti-Lebanon, north of the river Barada (Abana).
