<p> <strong> AHAVA </strong> was a settlement in [[Babylonia]] lying along a stream of the same name, probably a large canal near the Euphrates. None of the conjectures as to the exact locality can be verified. It was here that Ezra mustered his people before their departure for [[Jerusalem]] ( Ezra 8:15; Ezra 8:21; Ezra 8:31 ). Some district north or north-west of Babylon, near the northern boundary of Babylonia, is most probable. </p> <p> | <p> <strong> AHAVA </strong> was a settlement in [[Babylonia]] lying along a stream of the same name, probably a large canal near the Euphrates.
