It is often translated as "lodging place" or "inn" in English. In the context of the ancient Near East, these were typically simple accommodations, often open-air or rudimentary shelters, where travelers could find rest and safety during their journeys.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel and the surrounding regions, travel was often arduous and dangerous due to the rough terrain and the threat of bandits. As such, "malon" served as essential waypoints for travelers. These lodging places were not like modern inns or hotels but were more akin to caravanserais or simple encampments where travelers could find basic shelter and sometimes water for themselves and their animals.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/3885.htm">lun</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a lodging
