<p> [some E'she '''''Ä''''' n] (Hebrews Eshan', '''''אֶשׁעְן''''' '','' a ''Prop;'' Sept. '''''Ε᾿Σάν''''' v.r. '''''Σομά''''' , Vulg. ''Esaan),'' a city in the mountains of Judah, mentioned between [[Dumah]] and [[Janum]] ( Joshua 15:52), situated in the group west by south of [[Hebron]] (Keil, ''Comment.'' in loc.). Vai de Velde thinks ''(Memoir,'' pages 310, 311) the place may be the same as [[Ashan]] (q.v.); but this is inadmissible, partly because of the difference in the name ( '''''עַשַׁן''''' ), and partly because the only Ashan mentioned in [[Scripture]] lay in the low country ( Joshua 15:42; comp. Joshua 15:33), while [[Eshean]] is expressly placed in the hill country of Judah ( Joshua 15:48; Joshua 15:52). To escape this last and fatal objection, [[Van]] de Velde follows Von Raumer (Palist. page 173) in supposing two Ashans, one in the mountains of Judah, and the other in the southern plain of Palestine, belonging to Simeon; but that the Ashen of Judah and that of [[Simeon]] were one and the same, is evident from comparing Joshua 15:42; Joshua 19:9, where [[Ether]] appears as in the vicinity of both, and Joshua 19:7 with 1 Chronicles 4:32, where the same is the case with Ain-Rimilon. Still, although Eshean cannot thus be identified with the Chor-ashan of 1 Samuel 30:30, we may perhaps adopt Van de Velde's location of the former at the ruins of ''Khursa'' (Robinson's ''Researches,'' in, Append. page 116), not far south-west of Hebron (Stewart, ''Tent,'' page 224). </p> | |||
