Geshur: Jos 13:13; Sa2 13:38 Kenath: Kenath was situated in the tribe of Manasseh, east of Jordan. Eusebius says it was called in his time Καναθα, Kanatha; and was a town in the Trachonitis, near Bozra. Josephus places it in Coelo-syria; and Pliny reckons it among the cities of the Decapolis. It was also called Nobah, after Nobah an Israelite, who conquered it ( Num 32:42); which is placed by Eusebius, eight miles south of Heshbon. see note on Jdg 8:11. 1 Chronicles 2:24
