Опис
plodan, drevni grad na severnoj granici Palestine, 35 milja severoistočno od Baalbeca, i 10 ili 12 južno od jezera Homs, na istočnoj obali Oronta, u širokoj i plodnoj ravnici. Ovde je Nabukodonosor imao svoje sedište tokom svoje kampanje protiv Jerusalima, a ovde je i Neho postavio svoj logor nakon što je porazio Josijinu vojsku kod Megida [2 Car 23:29-35; 2 Car 25:6, 20, 21; Jer 39:5 ; Jer 52:10 ]. Nalazio se na velikom karavanskom putu iz Palestine do Karkemiša, na Eufratu. Opisan je [Br 34:11 ] kao „na istočnoj strani Aina.“ Mesto koje se i dalje zove el Ain, tj. „izvor“, nalazi se na takvom položaju oko 10 milja udaljeno. (Pogledajte JERUSALIM.)

Riblah
fruitful, an ancient town on the northern frontier of Palestine, 35 miles north-east of Baalbec, and 10 or 12 south of Lake Homs, on the eastern bank of the Orontes, in a wide and fertile plain. Here Nebuchadnezzar had his head-quarters in his campaign against Jerusalem, and here also Necho fixed his camp after he had routed Josiah's army at Megiddo (2Kings 23:29-35; 25:6; 25:20; 25:21; Jer 39:5 ; 52:10). It was on the great caravan road from Palestine to Carchemish, on the Euphrates. It is described (Num 34:11) as "on the eastern side of Ain." A place still called el Ain, i.e., "the fountain", is found in such a position about 10 miles distant. (See JERUSALEM)
