About this place
Edrei is named once, among the cities of the inheritance of the tribe of Naphtali (Joshua 19:32; Joshua 19:39): “The fortified cities were Ziddim, Zer, Hammath, Rakkath, Chinnereth, Adamah, Ramah, Hazor, Kedesh, Edrei, En Hazor, Iron, Migdal El, Horem, Beth Anath, and Beth Shemesh; nineteen cities with their villages” (Joshua 19:35–38). It is a different town from Edrei in Bashan, east of the Jordan, where Og king of Bashan reigned (Joshua 13:12). Its site has not been identified with certainty.
