LASSHARON . A town taken by Joshua ( Joshua 12:18 ). LXX [Note: Septuagint.] B reads here ‘the king of Aphek in Sharon.’ The Onomasticon gives the name of ‘Sharon’ to a second district, viz. that between Mount Tabor and Tiberias. The name Sarôna attaches to an ancient site on the plateau, 6 1 / 2 miles S.W. of Tiberias, which may possibly represent Lassharon (Conder).
