3. Bbth-daoon of 1 Chron. x, 10 (Sept oZcoc Aa- yctfv), in the western half-tribe of Kanasseh (some dis- tance ttom Mount Gilboa), where the Philistines, after their victory, placed SauPs head in the temple of their god — ^hiB body and those of his sons having been carried (the same distance north-east) to Bethshan, whence tiie Jabesh-Gileadites afterwards rescued them. It no doubt aids this view that we are not otherwise in- formed where the temple was in which they deposited then: ghastly trophy ; moreover, the phrase (in ver. 9) l*^iaD C^^'^Ma, denoting a circuit of the adjaemt country^ which bad been evacuated by Israel, and was then occupied by the enemy (ver. 7), very well suits the relative positions of this Bat-Dejan and Bethshan, equally distant from the fatal field, and in different directions.
4. With regard to the Bethpdagon of 1 Mace, x, 88, Gesenius (Thes, p. 194) expresses a doubt whether this passage means only Dagon's temple at Azotus, or a Beth-dagon, a town so called in the neighborhood. In that case we might regard this as a city in the vicinit>' of Azotus (or Ashdod), answering probably to Dr. Robinson's western Beit-Dejan^ and Eusebius's Caphar- dagon, already mentioned. It will be observed that in the 84th verse Beth-dagon occurs as a proper name, as it also does in the original, Brj^Baywv, whereas, in the next verse, the temple of the Philistine god is de- scribed by the appellative t6 Up6v Aaydtv, On the whole, however, there does not appear to be sufficient reason for the distinction. — Kitto, Cyclop, s. v.
Dailey, David, a Methodist Episcopal minister, was born in Gloucester County, N. J., March 1, 1792, was converted in 1805, entered the itinerancy in 1812, became superannuated in 1856, and died May 4, 1856.
