Easton's Bible Dictionary [1]

1 Chronicles 13:92 Samuel 6:6

Fausset's Bible Dictionary [2]

("javelin"): 1 Chronicles 13:9. Elsewhere Nachon's ("firm") threshingfloor (2 Samuel 6), where Uzza touched the shaking ark.

Holman Bible Dictionary [3]

1 Chronicles 13:9 2 Samuel 6:6Nacon

Hitchcock's Bible Names [4]

Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [5]

CHIDON . The name, acc. to 1 Chronicles 13:9 , of the threshing-floor where Uzzah was struck dead for rashly touching the ark (see Uzzah). In 2 Samuel 6:6 the name is given as Nacon . No locality has ever been identified with either name.

Morrish Bible Dictionary [6]

See NACHON.

Smith's Bible Dictionary [7]

Chi'don. (a javelin). The name which in 1 Chronicles 13:9, is given to the threshing-floor, at which the accident to the Ark took place. In the parallel account, in 2 Samuel 6, the name is given as Nachon.

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [8]

(Hebrews Kidon´, כַּירֹן a dart; Sept. Χειδών, but some omit), the name which in 1 Chronicles 13:9 is given to the threshing-floor at which the accident to the ark, on its transport from Kirjath-jearim to Jerusalem, took place, and the death of Uzzah; on this account it was afterwards known as PEREZ-UZZAH. In the parallel account in 2 Samuel 6, the name is given as NACHON (See Nachon) (q.v.), which is nearly equivalent in sense. Whether there were really two distinct names for the same spot, or whether the one is simply a corruption or alteration of the other, is quite uncertain (see Gesenius, Thesaur. p. 683; Simonis, Onom. p. 339-40). Josephus (Ant. 7:4, 2) has "Chidon" (Χειδών ). Some have even ventured to identify the spot with the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, on Mount Moriah. The Jewish tradition (Jerome, Quaest. Heb. on 1 Chronicles 11:9) was that Chidon acquired its name from being the spot on which Joshua stood when he stretched out the weapon of that name (A. V. "spear") towards Ai (Joshua 8:18). But this is irreconcilable with all our ideas of the topography of the locality, which was evidently not far N.W. of Jerusalem, possibly at the present ruins Khurbet el-Bistun (Van de Velde's Map).
