<p> Ash'nah. The name of two cities, both in the Shefelah, or lowlands of Judah: </p> <p> (1) named between [[Zoreah]] and Zanoah, and therefore, probably northwest of Jerusalem, Joshua 15:33, and </p> <p> (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. </p> | |||

<p> (Heb. Ashnah', אִשְׁנָה, fortified, otherwise bright; Sept. Ἀσνά ) , the name of two cities, both in the "plain" of the tribe of Judah. </p> <p> 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. </p> <p> 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. </p> | |||
