Judges 18:13

And they passed thence unto Mount Ephraim
Steering their coast still northward; this, according to Bunting F2, was eight miles from Kirjathjearim, or Mahanehdan, in which Micah's house was, for as yet they were not come to it, see ( Judges 18:15 ) .

Judges 18:13 In-Context

11 Six hundred men of the Danite clan, armed with weapons of war, set out from Zorah and Eshtaol,
12 and went up and encamped at Kiriath-jearim in Judah. On this account that place is called Mahaneh-dan to this day; it is west of Kiriath-jearim.
13 From there they passed on to the hill country of Ephraim, and came to the house of Micah.
14 Then the five men who had gone to spy out the land (that is, Laish) said to their comrades, "Do you know that in these buildings there are an ephod, teraphim, and an idol of cast metal? Now therefore consider what you will do."
15 So they turned in that direction and came to the house of the young Levite, at the home of Micah, and greeted him.
