Mount Tabor
An isolated cone-shaped hill, 1000 ft. in height and clothed with olive-trees, on the NE. borders of Esdraelon, 7 m. E. of Nazareth. A tradition of the 2nd century identifies it as the scene of the Tranfiguration, and ruins of a church, built by the Crusaders to commemorate the event, crown the summit.
