Migdal-el

Migdal-el (meaning tower of God) was a fortified city in the territory of Naphtali, listed in Joshua 19:38 among the cities allotted to that tribe. Its exact location is uncertain; various sites in upper Galilee have been proposed. The name suggests a prominent defensive tower or fortress, possibly associated with a sanctuary, that served as a regional landmark. It appears only in this single administrative list.
