ACHSHAPH.About 17 miles E. of Tyre, now called Iksaf or Kesaf, on N.E. border of territory assigned to Asher (Jos_19:25). Its king joined Jabins confederacy, which was defeated by Joshua, and the ruler of Achshaph was amongst the slain (Jos_11:1; Jos_12:20).

Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909
A Canaanite royal city, whose king was smitten by Joshua (Jos_11:1; Jos_12:20; Jos_19:25). Within Asher; perhaps the modern Chaifa, in the Septuagint Ceaph. Conder (Pal. Expl. Qy. Star., April, 1876) identifies with Yasif. The hieratic papyrus (Brit. Mus., 1842, pl. 35-61), mentioning Aksapou (identified by M. Chabas with Achshaph), is the account of an Egyptian officer's travels in a chariot from near Aleppo to the vicinity of the sea of Saltlee, and thence to Egypt via Joppa. He is called a Mohar; his record is at least 3,000 years old. ("Voyage d'un Egypt. en Syrie, en Phenic., en Palest.": F. Chabas, Paris, 1866.)

ak?shaf (אכשׁף, 'akhshāph, ?sorcery,? or ?fascination?): A city in the northern part of the territory conquered by Joshua. The king of Achshaph was a member of the coalition against Israel under Jabin and Sisera. It is mentioned with Hazor, Megiddo, Taanach, etc., in the list of conquered kings. It is one of the cities marking the boundaries of the tribe of Asher (Jos_11:1; Jos_12:20; Jos_19:25). Several attempts have been made to identify the site of it, but explorers are not agreed as to the identification.

Ach?shaph, a royal city of the Canaanites (Jos_11:1), has been supposed by many to be the same as Achzib, both being in the tribe of Asher. But a careful consideration of Jos_19:25; Jos_19:29, will make it probable that the places were different. There is more reason in the conjecture that Achshaph was another name for Accho or Acre, seeing that Accho otherwise does not occur in the list of towns in the lot of Asher, although it is certain, from Jdg_1:31, that Accho was in the portion of that tribe.

Achshaph
(Heb. Akshaph', אִבְשָׁ, fascination: Sept. Α᾿χασάφ) a royal city of the Canaanites, in the northern part of Palestine (Jos_11:1) whose king was overthrown by Joshua (Jos_12:20). It was situated on the eastern boundary of the tribe of Asher, and is named between Beten and Alammelech (Jos_19:25). By some (see Reland, Paloest, p. 543) it has been regarded as the same as Achzib, but this is mentioned separately (Jos_19:29). By others (e.g. Hammesveld, 3, 237) it has been assumed to be the same as Accho or Acre, and Schwarz (Palest. p. 191) thinks it is the modern village Kefr-Yasif, five miles north-east of that town; but this region is too far west for the Biblical notices. Eusebius and Jerome (Onomast. s.v. Α᾿κσαφ) locate it at the foot of Mount Tabor, eight miles from Diocaesarea; but they have evidently confounded it with Chesulloth (see Keil's Comment. on Jos_11:1). Dr. Robinson is probably correct in identifying it with the ruined village Kesaf, around a large tree, two miles north-east of Kubrikah, a little south of the Litany, and nearly midway between the Mediterranean and the Upper Jordan (new ed. of Researches, 3, 55).
Achshaph
Tristram identifies this town with the modern Khaifa, at the mouth of the Kishon, north of Carmel (Bible Places, p. 215); but with little probability, as Khaifa, seems to be the חו, choph (cove), or "haven" of Asher and Zebulon (Gen_49:13; "sea-side," Deu_1:7; shore," Jdg_5:17; Jer_47:7; "coast," Jos_9:1; Eze_25:16).
