‘ And Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried at Pirathon, in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.'
Here was another Pirathonite who lived and died in honour and was gathered to his fathers. The ‘hill country of the Amalekites' may have commemorated a great battle with the Amalekites, or have been their former dwelling place, or there may even have been a small group who dwelt there.
