REHOB
REHOB (
Ῥοώβ,
al. Ῥαάβ, al.
Ἐρεώ), a town in the tribe of Asher, occupied by the Canaanites. (
Josh. 19.28;
Judg. 1.31.)
A second city of the
[p. 2.698]same name is reckoned among the 22 cities of the same tribe (
Josh. 19.30); but neither of these can be identified with the Rhoob (
῾ποῶβ) noticed by Eusebius, 4 miles distant from Scythopolis.
