<p> (Heb. Yano'ach, יָנוֹח , rest; 2 Kings 15:29; Sept. Ἀνώχ v.r. Ι᾿ανώχ; but in Joshua cvi, 6,7 with ה local, Yano'chah, יָנוֹחָה, to Janoah; Sept. Ι᾿ανωχά v. r. Ι᾿ανωκά and Ι᾿ανώ, or even ᾿Μαχώ ; Vulg. Janzoe; A.V. "Janohah"), the name probably of two places. </p> <p> 1. A town on the N.E. border of [[Ephraim]] (see Keil and Delitzsch, Comment. on Joshua, etc., p. 177, Clarke's ed.), and consequently in or near the [[Jordan]] valley (Joshua 16:6-7). Euseb. and [[Jerome]] state that in their time it was still a village in the district of Acrabatine, twelve miles east of Neapolis, the ancient [[Sichem]] (Onomasticon s. v Ι᾿ανώ, Janon). About three and a half hours (12 miles) east by south of Nablus stands the little village of Yanon, situated in a vale which descends the eastern slope of the mountains of Ephraim to the Jordan. The village is' now mostly in ruins, but it has a few houses inhabited, and its ancient remains "are extensive and interesting. [[Entire]] houses and walls are still existing, but covered with immense heaps of earth and rubbish. The- dwellings of the present inhabitants are built upon and between the dwellings of the ancient Janohah" (Van de Velde, Travels, 2, 303). [[Janohah]] being situated on the side of the mountain range, the border "went down" to Ataroth, which lay in the valley of the Jordan. About a mile up the vale of Janohahis a little fountain, and upon a hill above it the prostrate ruins of another ancient town which is now called Khirbet Yanun ("ruined: Yaniun") (Robinson, B. R. 3:297): </p> <p> 2. A town of [[Northern]] Palestine, situated apparently between Abel-beth- [[Maachah]] and Kedesh, and within the boundaries of Naphtali. It was taken, with several other cities; on the first invasion of [[Palestine]] by TiglathPileser, king of [[Assyria]] (2 Kings 15:29). It is mentioned by [[Eusebius]] and Jerome, but they strangely confound it with Janohah, a town of Ephraim (Onomasticon, s.v.; Janon), and in this they are followed by Reland: (Palestina, p. 826), [[Gesenius]] (Thesaurus, s.v.), Schwarz Palest. p. 147), and others. The modern village of Hunin, which stands on the brow of a mountain between [[Abel]] and Kedesh, and which contains the massive ruins of a large and strong castle, would answer to the situation, and the names have some slight radical affinity. For a description of Hunin, see Porter, Handbook for [[Syria]] and Palestine, p. 444. — Kitto, s.v. ‘ A ruin called Yanuh, on a hill S.W. of Haddata (Robinson, [[Later]] Researches, p.58), seems' by its name to have more correspondence to Jalnoah than Huinnin; but it lies in the center of [[Gentile]] Galilee, and Tiglath-Pileser's march seems rather to have followed the hills along the [[Huleh]] plain, [[Van]] de Velde, Memoir, p. 324. </p> | |||
