<p> '''''bō´sor''''' ( Βοσόρ , <i> '''''Bosór''''' </i> ): </p> <p> (1) A city named among those taken by [[Judas]] Maccabeus "in the land of Gilead" (1 Macc 5:26, 36). From the towns named it is evident that this phrase is elastic, covering territory beyond what is usually called the land of Gilead.
