What is Halak?
HA'LAK
, THE MOUNT (the smooth or the bald mountain), the name of a mountain marking the southern limit of Joshua's conquests. Josh 11:17; Acts 12:7. It has been variously identified with the range of hills parallel with Beer-sheba, with the modern Jebel el-Mukrek, 60 miles south of the Dead Sea, and with the range of white hills 8 miles south of the Dead Sea, and which divides the Ghor, to the north, from the Arabah, to the south. HALE means to haul, to drag by force, before magistrates. Luke 12:58; Acts 8:3.
