It is primarily known as the location where King Saul sought the counsel of a medium or witch before his final battle against the Philistines.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>En-dor was a Canaanite city located in the territory of Issachar, near Mount Tabor. In ancient Israel, consulting mediums or necromancers was strictly forbidden by Mosaic Law (Leviticus 19:31; Deuteronomy 18:10-12). Despite this, King Saul, in desperation, visited a medium at En-dor to summon the spirit of the prophet Samuel (1 Samuel 28:7-25). This event highlights the spiritual decline and desperation of Saul's reign.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/5871.htm">ayin</a> and <a href="/hebrew/1755.htm">dor</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"spring of dwelling," a town in Manasseh<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>En-dor (3).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">עֵיןדֹּֿר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, of a location</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>in Manasseh</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/joshua/17-11.htm">Joshua 17:11</a> (J E;
