TOWER - T>@ - Watch-towers or fortified posts in frontier or exposed situations are mentioned in Scripture, as the tower of Edar, etc., kjv@Genesis:35:21; kjv@Isaiah:21:5 kjv@Isaiah:21:8,11; kjv@Micah:4:8) etc.; the tower of Lebanon. (2 Samuel kjv@8:6) Besides these military structures, we read in Scripture of towers built in vineyards as an almost necessary appendage to them. ( kjv@1Samuel:5:2; kjv@Matthew:22:33; kjv@Mark:12:1) Such towers are still in use in Palestine in vineyards, especially near Hebron, and are used as lodges for the keepers of the vineyards.
