1Ki 20:26

With the new year (see 1Ki 20:22) Benhadad advanced to Aphek again to fight against Israel. Aphek is neither the city of that name in the tribe of Asher (Jos 19:30 and Jos 13:4), nor that on the mountains of Judah (Jos 15:53), but the city in the plain of Jezreel not far from Endor (1Sa 29:1 compared with 1Sa 28:4); since Benhadad had resolved that this time he would fight against Israel in the plain.
