Where is Anaharath in the Bible?

Anaharath was a town located on the border of the tribe of Issachar's territory in ancient Israel, situated in the region of Lower Galilee. The town is mentioned in the Book of Joshua as one of the cities assigned to Issachar during the division of the Promised Land among the twelve tribes. The name and site of Anaharath have been preserved in the modern location of En-Na'ura in Israel, helping scholars identify its exact position in the biblical landscape. While some older biblical reference sources incorrectly assigned Anaharath to the tribe of Naphtali, it is properly recognized as belonging to Issachar's territorial allotment.
