	Machon Helkat haSadeh- Joshua's Altar
		Ebal is a huge mountain—about six and a half square miles (18 square kilometers)—in the southern part of Manasseh.
		Ebal, known from Deuteronomy, chapters 27 and 28, as the mountain where the curses were pronounced, is separated on the south from Mt. Gerizim, the mountain of the blessings, by the deep narrow valley of Shechem.
		The building of an altar on Mt. Ebal is described in two places in the Bible, once in Deuteronomy, when the Israelites are commanded to build the altar after they pass into the Promised Land, and again in the book of Joshua, when the altar is actually built.

	Discussion: 42. Tur Gobel (Mount Ebal) - (Jabal Islamiyah)
		In the days of Joshua, Mt. Ebal was the location of a major Israelite ceremony associated with the stone inscription of the Mosaic law, the building of an altar of unhewn stones, sacrifices, and a special liturgy of blessing and cursing (Josh 8:30-35; cf.
		Although the biblical passages attesting to the Mt. Ebal ceremony are clearly Deuteronomistic (and therefore late), their reference to an important ceremony outside Jerusalem and in the heart of N territory is in sharp contrast with the so-called "main theme" of the Deuteronomistic historian: namely, the centralization of the cult in Jerusalem.
		The possible correlation between the abandonment of Ebal and the foundation of Shiloh (mid-12th century B.C.E.) may be interpreted as the movement of the national and religious focus of the Israelites from the north to the south, or from Manasseh to Ephraim.

	Mount Ebal - Walking in Their Sandals - location profile
		The Vale of Shechem, in central Samaria, separates two important mountains, Ebal on the north and Gerizim on the south.
		Mount Ebal, the higher of the two, is a prominent mound of rock with little vegetation that reaches a height of 3,080 feet above sea level and nearly 1,500 feet above the valley floor.
		In addition to the chanting of the curses and blessings, Joshua wrote a copy of the law on stones at Mount Ebal, further reinforcing the absolute authority of God’s word to His people and their responsibility to obey it.

		Adam Zertal identified a structure on Mt Ebal as an altar and suggested it might be the altar mentioned in Joshua.
		Perhaps it was, but it was probably the altar standing on Mount Ebal when Joshua was written in the fifth century, not one that actually played the historical role offered it in the twelfth century in the bible.
		So maybe my mother was, as you suggest the Ebal site may be, “coincidentally” having nightmares every night for as long as I could remember, not based on her experiences during the Holocaust.

	Mount Ebal - by A. Zertal
		Many a time an archaeologist faces the difficult riddle of discovering the name of a lost city or identifying the people who inhabited it.

		The mountain is an inclined area descending steeply to the south towards the valley of Shechem.

	Philologos \| The Holy Land and the Bible by Cunningham Geikie \| Chapter 35
		Mount Ebal, steep, but terraced almost to the top into gardens of prickly pear, which is grown for its fruit, lay behind Him, the little hamlet of Balata, where Abraham's altar once stood under the sacred tree, the mud-huts of Sychar and the dome of Joseph's tomb being at its foot.
		The slope of the strata being to the north, Ebal is prevented from contributing in the same way to the local fertility.
		The natural amphitheatre formed by the receding of Mounts Ebal and Gerizim at the same point in the valley below, is wonderfully suited to such an incident as that of reading the law to the Hebrews, at the great assembly of the nation after the taking of Ai by Joshua (Deut 27:12ff; Josh 8:34).

	Bible Study - Mount Ebal
		Mount Ebal, from the Hebrew word pronounced ay-bawl, meaning rocky, is a mountain in Samaria, in central Israel.
		Mount Gerizim was to the south of Shechem on the opposite side of the valley.
		This difference was used in a ceremony to symbolize the blessings for those who obey God, and the curses for those who disobey - a principle that applies as much now as at any other time during Bible History.

		The mountain (Arabic el-Iclamiyeh) reaches a height of 1,402 ft. above the floor of the valley, and 3,077 ft. above the level of the Mediterranean.
		These two mountains overhang the pass through which runs the main artery of intercourse between East and West, the city of Nablus lying in the throat of the valley to the West.
		The lower slopes of Ebal as one ascends from Nablus are covered with gardens and orchards, the copious streams from the fountains under Gerizim washing its foot, and spreading fertility and beauty.

		Shechem was located at the eastern end of the narrow pass between Mount Ebal to the north and Mount Gerizim to the south (see photos above), these mountains at their base being only some 500 yards apart.
		The city was built mainly on the slope, or shoulder, of Mount Ebal (thus the probable derivation of the name Shechem, which means "shoulder" or "back").
		Built in the 2nd century AD on the main east-west road which passed by the foot of Mount Ebal, it was apparently constructed outside the city limits.

	Mount Ebal - by A. Zertal
		The pottery findings in both phases were very similar, so much so that we believe the same people, or the same generation, built both phases of the site.
		There is no difference in the pottery; but, in contrast, there is a fundamental difference in the perception of the site, which may be put briefly as follows: in the second half of the 13th century, as far as we can tell, a modest cultic site was established on Mt. 'Ebal.
		It stands to reason that founding a cultic center on Mt. 'Ebal was intended as nothing other than a counter-weight to the presence of Canaanite Shechem and its cultic sites.
