two cities; a double city.
(1.) A city of refuge in Naphtali (1Chr 6:76).
(2.) A town on the east of Jordan (Gen 14:5 ; Deut 2:9 ; 2:10). It was assigned to the tribe of Reuben (Num 32:37 ). In the time of Ezekiel (Ezek 25:9 ) it was one of the four cities which formed the "glory of Moab" [comp. (Jer 48:1 ; 48:23)].
