Ava
VIEW:15 DATA:01-04-2020
Ava, in Assyria; colonists thence re. peopled Samaria after the removal of the Israelites (2Ki_17:24). Probably the same as Ivah (2Ki_18:34). The Assyrians according to their usual policy, having conquered Ivah, transplanted its inhabitants to Samaria, vacated by Israel's deportation. (See IVAH.)

Ava (2Ki_17:24), also Ivah (2Ki_18:34; 2Ki_19:13; Isa_37:13), the capital of a small monarchical state conquered by the Assyrians, and from which king Shalmaneser sent colonies into Samaria. It is most probable that Ava was a Syrian or Mesopotamian town, of which no trace can now be found either in ancient writers or in the Oriental topographers.

Ava
(Hebrews Avva', עִוָּא, ruin; Sept. Αουά, 2Ki_17:24), also IVAH (Hebrews Ivvah', עִוָּה, same signif.; Sept. Α᾿ουά, 2Ki_18:34; 2Ki_19:13; but in Isa_37:13, unites with the preceding word, Α᾿ναεγγουγαυά v. r. Α᾿ναγουγάυα), the capital of a small monarchical state conquered by the Assyrians, and from which King Shalmaneser sent colonies into Samaria. The early Jewish translators (Symmachus and the Targums) understand it as a mere appellative; but it is associated with other proper names as a city. Some take it for the river, or rather the town which gave name to the river Ahava of Ezr_8:21 (Bellermann, Handbuch, 3, 374); but this name is quite different in the Hebrews (אְהִוָא). Iken (Dissertt. Philol. Theolog. p. 152) would identify it with the Phoenician town Avatha, mentioned in the Notitia Vet. Dignitatum Imper. Romans (but the reading here is rather doubtful, see Reland, Palaest. p. 232 sq.); or with the town of Abeje, between Beirut and Sidon, which Paul Lucas mentions as the seat of a Druse prince. Michaelis supposes it to be the land of the Avites between Tripoli and Beirut, because they are described as worshippers of Nibhaz (2Ki_17:31), an idol which he compares with the great stone dog that formerly stood in that quarter, on which account the Lycus obtained its name of Nahr el-Kelb, Dog River (comp. Mannert, VI, 1:380). This, however, rests upon a confusion of the Avim of 2Ki_17:31, with those of Deu_2:23; Jos_13:3. SEE AVITE. Avva or Ivvah was doubtless a city of Mesopotamia, in the region indicated by the associated names (Babylon, Cuth, Hamath, Sepharvaim), perhaps somewhere farther east, in the direction of the classical Aria.
