The Jews reoccupied the place after the exile ( Nehemiah 11:30 ). Here it is named between [[Jarmuth]] and Adullam.

[[Eusebius]] (in <i> Onomasticon </i> ) places it at Zanna, in the district of [[Eleutheropolis]] on the [[Jerusalem]] road.

It may be identified with <i> '''''Zenūtā''''' </i> , a ruined site on a hill about 12 miles South of Hebron. </p> | <p> 1.

Zanua in Jerome's Onomasticon as in the district of [[Eleutheropolis]] on the way to Jerusalem. In [[Van]] de Velde's map N. of the wady Ismail, two miles E. of [[Zareah]] and four N. of Yarmuk. [[Jekuthiel]] father or founder of Zanoah, was son of [[Jehudijah]] the [[Jewess]] and Mered; Mered's other wife being Bithiah, Pharaoh's daughter. (See BITHIAH.) [[Israelites]] from [[Egypt]] probably colonized Zanoah. </p> <p> 2.

<p> Zano'ah. (marsh). </p> <p> 1. A town of [[Judah]] in the Shefelah or plain, Joshua 15:34; Nehemiah 3:13; Nehemiah 11:30, possibly identical with Zanu'a. </p> <p> 2. A town of Judah in the highland district, Joshua 15:66, not improbably identical with Sanute, about 10 miles south of Hebron. </p> <p> 3. In the genealogical lists of the tribe of Judah in 1 Chronicles, [[Jekuthiel]] is said to have been the father of Zanoah. 1 Chronicles 4:18. As [[Zanoah]] is the name of a town of Judah, this mention of [[Bithiah]] probably points to some colonization of the place by [[Egyptians]] or by [[Israelites]] directly from Egypt. </p> | |||

<p> (Heb. Zano'ach, זָנוֹחִ [Nehemiah 11:30, זָנֹחִ ], prob. marsh), the name of two towns in the tribe of Judah. </p> <p> 1. (Sept. Ζανώ ) v.r. Τανώ , Vulg. Zano.) A place in the lowland (Shephelah), named in connection with [[Zoreah]] and [[Jarmuth]] (Joshua 15:34), in the group occupying the north-western corner of the district. (See [[Judah]]). The name recurs in its old connection in the lists of Nehemiah, both of the towns which were reinhabited by the people of [[Judah]] after the [[Captivity]] (Nehemiah 11:30), and of those which assisted in repairing the wall of [[Jerusalem]] (Joshua 3:13). [[Jerome]] says (Onomnast. s.v. "Zanohua") that it was still called Zanua in his day, and lay in the region of [[Eleutheropolis]] on the way to Jerusalem. The name and position tolerably correspond to those of Zanu'a, a site which was pointed out to Dr. Robinson from Beit Nettif (Bib. Res. 2, 16), and which in the maps of [[Van]] de Velde and of Tobler (Dritte Wamderung) is located on the north side of the [[Wady]] Ismail, two miles east of Zareah, and four miles north of Yarmuk. [[Rabbi]] Schwarz inaccurately calls it Zamea (Palest. p. 102). </p> <p> 2. (Sept. [in Joshua, taking in the following name] Ζανωακείμ v.. Ζακαναείμ, Vulg. Zanoel; in Chronicles Ζαμών, Vulg. Zanoa.) A town in the highland district, the mountain proper (Joshua 15:56), named in the same group with Maon, Carmel, Ziph, and other places known to lie south of Hebron. It is (as Van de Velde suggests, Memoir, p. 354) not improbably identical with Sanute which is mentioned by Seetzen (Reisen, 3, 29) as below Senula, and appears to be about ten miles south of Hebron. At the time of his visit it was the last inhabited place to the south. Robinson (Bibl. Res. 2, 204, note) gives the name differently, Za'nfutah; and it will be observed that, like Zanu'ah above mentioned, it contains the Ain, which the [[Hebrew]] name does not. The English engineers found (Quar. Report. of the "Pal. Explor. Fund," Jan. 1875, p. 15) an ancient site called Khirbet Sanut (written with an Elif= א ), situated immediately west of Khirbet Yekin (the [[Cain]] of the context), which Tristram prefers as the representative of this [[Zanoah]] (Bible Places, p. 62). </p> <p> In the genealogical lists of the tribe of Judah in 1 Chronicles, [[Jekuthiel]] is said to have been the father (i.e. founder or rebuilder) of Zanoah (4, 18); and, as far as the passage can be made out, some connection appears to be intended with "Bithiah, the daughter of Pharaoh." This mention of [[Bithiah]] probably points to some colonization of the place by [[Egyptians]] or by [[Israelites]] directly from Egypt. In Seetzen's account of Sanuite (Za'nfitah) there is a curious token of the influence which events in [[Egypt]] still exercised on the place (Reisen, 3, 29). Here it is also mentioned with [[Socho]] and Eshtemoa, both of which places are recognizable in the neighborhood of Za'nutah. The [[Jewish]] interpreters considered the, whole of this passage of 1 Chronicles 4 to refer to Moses, and interpret each of the names which- it contains as titles of him. "He was chief of Zanoach," says the Targum, "because for his sake [[God]] put away (זָנִח ) the sins of Israel." </p> | |||

<p> Zano´ah (marsh, bog), one of the towns of [[Judah]] 'in the valley' (); which [[Jerome]] identifies with a village called in his time Zanua, on the borders of Eleutheropolis, on the road to Jerusalem. The name of Zanua is still connected with a site on the slope of a low hill not far east of [[Ain]] Shems (Beth-shemesh). </p> | |||
