Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root יָשֵׁן (yashen), meaning "old" or "ancient." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Jeshanah, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew Bible and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts. Usage: Jeshanah is used in the context of a geographical location, specifically a town or city mentioned in the Old Testament. Context: Jeshanah is identified as a town in the territory of the tribe of Ephraim. It is mentioned in the context of King Abijah of Judah's reign. In 2 Chronicles 13:19, Jeshanah is one of the cities captured by Abijah from Jeroboam, the king of Israel. The passage reads: "Abijah pursued Jeroboam and captured some cities from him: Bethel, Jeshanah, and Ephron, along with their villages." This indicates that Jeshanah was a strategically significant location during the divided monarchy period. The exact location of Jeshanah is not definitively known today, but it is believed to have been situated in the central hill country of ancient Israel, within the region traditionally associated with the tribe of Ephraim.
