Smith's Bible Dictionary [1]
Ash'nah. The name of two cities, both in the Shefelah , or lowlands of Judah:
(1) named between Zoreah and Zanoah, and therefore, probably northwest of Jerusalem, Joshua 15:33, and
(2) between Jiptah and Nezib, and therefore, to the southwest of Jerusalem. Joshua 15:43. Each, according, to Robinson's map (1857), would be about 16 miles from Jerusalem.
Morrish Bible Dictionary [2]
1. Town in the west of Judah near Dan. Joshua 15:33 . Identified with Hasan, 34 59' E 31 47' N .
2. Town in the low hills of Judah, probably to the S.W. of Jerusalem. Joshua 15:43 .
Fausset's Bible Dictionary [3]
Two cities of Judah, both in the Shephelah or low hills.
1. Between Zorea and Zanoah, N.W. of Jerusalem, Asena ( Joshua 15:33).
2. Between Jiphtah and Nezib, S.W. of Jerusalem ( Joshua 15:43), now Esna.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [4]
Ashnah . Two unknown sites of towns in Judah ( Joshua 15:33; Joshua 15:43 ).
Holman Bible Dictionary [5]
Joshua 15:33 Joshua 15:43
Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [6]
(Heb. Ashnah', אִשְׁנָה , Fortified, otherwise Bright; Sept. Ἀσνά ) , the name of two cities, both in the "plain" of the tribe of Judah.
1. One mentioned between Zorah and Zanoah ( Joshua 15:33), apparently in the region north of Eleutheropolis and west of Jerusalem (see Keil, Comment. in loc.), and near the boundary-line, almost within the territory afterward assigned to Dan (see Joshua 19:41), and probably near Beth-Shemesh, possibly at the site of the modern "large village Deir Aban" (Robinson, Researches, new ed. iii 154). It is probably the Asan ( Ἀσάν ) or Bethasan ( Θηβασά ) placed I y Eusebius and Jerome (Onomast. s.v.) at 15 or 16 Roman miles west of Jerusalem.
2. Another town, certainly in Judah, mentioned between Jiphtah and Nezib ( Joshua 15:43); apparently in the region immediately south and east of Eleutheropolis (comp. Keil, Comment. in loc.), probably not very far from this last; possibly the present Beit Alanm, a ruined village on a low mound (Robinson, Researches. ii, 403). Eusebius and Jerome also speak of an Asna ( Ἀσνά , Onomast. s.v.), but without any particulars.
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [7]
ash´na ( אשׁנה , 'ashnāh ): Two sites, (1) Joshua 15:33 , a site in the lowlands of Judah, probably near Estaol and Zorah. The small ruin Aslin between those two places may retain an echo of the old name; (2) Joshua 15:43 an unknown site farther south.
