ASHHUR (AV [Note: Authorized Version.] Ashur).—The ‘father’ of Tekoa (1Ch_2:24; 1Ch_4:5).
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


ash?ur (אשׁחוּר, ashḥūr, the King James Version Ashur): The ?father of Tekoa? (1Ch_2:24; 1Ch_4:5), probably the founder of the village. The original meaning of the name is the ?man of Horus,? Ashurites (האשׁורי, hā-'ashūrı̄). This name occurs in the list of Ish-bosheth's subjects (2Sa_2:9). The Syriac, Arabic, and Vulgate (Jerome's Latin Bible, 390-405 ad) versions read הגּשׁוּרי, ha-geshūrı̄, ?the Geshurites,? designating the small kingdom to the South or Southeast of Damascus. This reading, though adopted by Ewald, Thenius and Wellhausen, is untenable, for during the reign of Ish-bosheth Geshur was ruled by its own king Talmai, whose daughter was married to David (2Sa_3:3; 2Sa_13:37). Furthermore Geshur was too far away from the rest of Ishbosheth's territory. A more consistent reading is האשׁרי, hā-'āshērı̄, as given in the Targum of Jonathan and accepted by K?hler, Klost, Kirkpatrick and Budde, ?those of the house of Asher? (compare Jdg_1:32). The term would, then, denote the country to the West of Jordan above Jezreel.
