Two cities of Judah, both in the shephelah or low hills.

2. Between Jiphtah and Nezib, S.W. of Jerusalem (Jos_15:43), now Esna.
Fausset's Bible Dictionary

Ash'nah. The name of two cities, both in the Shefelah, or lowlands of Judah:
(1) named between Zoreah and Zanoah, and therefore, probably northwest of Jerusalem, Jos_15:33, and
(2) between Jiptah and Nezib, and therefore, to the southwest of Jerusalem. Jos_15:43. Each, according, to Robinson's map (1857), would be about 16 miles from Jerusalem.
Smith's Bible Dictionary
By Dr. William Smith.Published in 1863


ash?na (אשׁנה, 'ashnāh): Two sites, (1) Jos_15:33, a site in the lowlands of Judah, probably near Estaol and Zorah. The small ruin Aslin between those two places may retain an echo of the old name; (2) Jos_15:43 an unknown site farther south.

Ashnah
(Heb. Ashnah', אִשְׁנָה, fortified, otherwise bright; Sept. Α᾿σνά), the name of two cities, both in the "plain" of the tribe of Judah.
1. One mentioned between Zorah and Zanoah (Jos_15:33), apparently in the region north of Eleutheropolis and west of Jerusalem (see Keil, Comment. in loc.), and near the boundary-line, almost within the territory afterward assigned to Dan (see Jos_19:41), and probably near Beth-Shemesh, possibly at the site of the modern "large village Deir Aban" (Robinson, Researches, new ed. iii 154). It is probably the Asan (Α᾿σάν) or Bethasan (Θηβασά) placed I y Eusebius and Jerome (Onomast. s.v.) at 15 or 16 Roman miles west of Jerusalem.
2. Another town, certainly in Judah, mentioned between Jiphtah and Nezib (Jos_15:43); apparently in the region immediately south and east of Eleutheropolis (comp. Keil, Comment. in loc.), probably not very far from this last; possibly the present Beit Alanm, a ruined village on a low mound (Robinson, Researches. ii, 403). Eusebius and Jerome also speak of an Asna (Α᾿σνά, Onomast. s.v.), but without any particulars.
