Elifelet

Elifelet (Hebrew: אֱלִיפֶלֶט) is a moshav in northern Israel.

Located on the Korazim Plateau near Rosh Pina, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mevo'ot HaHermon Regional Council.

[1] The name "Elifelet" belongs to several characters in the Hebrew Bible, for example one of the sons of King David (2 Samuel 5:16, 1 Chronicles 3:8) and a repatriate after the Babylonian Captivity (Ezra 8:13).

[2] The moshav was founded in 1949 by immigrants from Yemen belonging to the Moshavim Movement on the former village grounds of the depopulated Palestinian village of al-Zanghariyya.

[3] Although it was abandoned after several years, it was resettled during the 1950s by immigrants from North Africa and Iraq.
