Where is Yiron in the Bible?

Yiron was a town located in the territory of Naphtali in ancient Israel, situated in the northern region of the Promised Land. It appears in the biblical record in Joshua 19:38 as part of the list of cities allotted to the tribe of Naphtali during Joshua's division of the Promised Land among the twelve tribes of Israel. While Yiron is mentioned only briefly in scripture, its inclusion in this territorial allocation demonstrates the systematic distribution of the land to Israel's tribes and Yiron's place within the northern boundaries of ancient Israel. The town's exact modern location remains uncertain, though it would have been situated somewhere in what is now northern Israel or southern Lebanon.
