ABDON
servile. (1.) The son of Hillel, a Pirathonite, the tenth judge of Israel (Judg. 12:13). He is probably the Bedan of 1-Sam 12:11. (2.) The first-born of Gibeon of the tribe of Benjamin (1-Chr 8:30;9:36). (3.) The son of Micah, one of those whom Josiah sent to the prophetess Huldah to ascertain from her the meaning of the recently discovered book of the law (2-Chr 34:20). He is called Achbor in 2-Kings 22:12. (4.) One of the "sons" of Shashak (1-Chr 8:23). This is the name also of a Levitical town of the Gershonites, in the tribe of Asher (Josh. 21:30; 1-Chr 6:74). The ruins of Abdeh, some 8 miles north-east of Accho, probably mark its site.
