Endor
a village of Palestine, 4 miles S. of Tabor; a poor mud hamlet.
It was the place which Saul visited (I Sam. xxviii: 7), to consult the "woman with a familiar spirit" previous to his fatal engagement with the Philistines.
ENDYMION (-dim'i-on), a shepherd, son of Æthlios and Calyce. It is stated that he asked Jupiter to grant him to be always young, and to sleep as much as he would; whence came the proverb, "to sleep the sleep of Endymion." Diana, or the moon, saw him unclothed as he slept on Mount Latmos, and became enamored of his great beauty, coming down from heaven every night to visit him.
