Elon (Judges)

Elon (Hebrew:  ʼĒlōn, "oak")  was a leader (judge) of the ancient Israelites according to the biblical Book of Judges.

Elon appears in Judges 12:11–12. He was a member of the Tribe of Zebulun who served as a judge of Israel for ten years. He was preceded by Ibzan and succeeded by Abdon. Elon, along with Tola, Yair, Ibzan, and Abdon are only briefly mentioned and may be the names of clans.

Elon is translated as "Ahialon" in the Douay–Rheims Bible and other translations.
