Ono [1]
ō´nō ( אונו , 'ōnō ; Codex Vaticanus Ωνάν , Ōnán ; Codex Alexandrinus Ωνώ , Ōnṓ , and other forms): A town mentioned along with Lod as fortified by certain Benjamites ( 1 Chronicles 8:12 ). The Mishna ( ‛Ǎrākhı̄n ix.6) says that Joshua fortified it, but there is no such early notice of it in Scripture. It was occupied by Benjamites after the return from exile ( Ezra 2:33; Nehemiah 7:37; Nehemiah 11:35 ). In one of the villages in the plain of Ono, Sanballat and his friends vainly tried to inveigle Nehemiah into a conference ( Nehemiah 6:2 ). It is represented by the modern Kefr ‛Anā , which lies to the Northwest of Lydda. In 1 Esdras 5:22, the name appears as "Onus."
