Makaz
Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature
(Heb. Ma'kats, מָקִוֹ , boundary; Septuag. Μακές v. r. Μαχυᾶς ), a place first named among those designating the district of Ben-Dekar, one of Solomon's purveyors (1 Kings 4:9). The associated names, Shaalbim, Beth-shemesh, and Elon-beth-hanan, would seem to indicate a locality in the tribe of Dan, perhaps in the plain east of Ekron.
