BOHAN.A son of Reuben, acc. to Jos_15:6; Jos_18:17 (both P [Note: Priestly Narrative.] ). The stone of Bohan is mentioned in these two passages as forming a mark of division between Judah and Benjamin. It is impossible to identify the site where it stood.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909
("the thumb".) A son of Reuben (not mentioned in Exo_6:14; Num_26:5; 1Ch_5:3), after whom a stone was named. Probably commemorating some achievement of his in the conquest of Palestine (Jos_15:6; Jos_18:17). It was a boundary mark between Judah and Benjamin, the exact point where the mountains W. of the Dead Sea change their direction to the eye. Now called "the stone of the finger," Hadjar el Asbah. Ganneau observes that a rock on an isolated peak on the hill side resembles a fist closed with the thumb raised; the name of this peak probably was transferred to the fallen block close by, namely, Hadjar el Asbah.

Bo?han (a thumb), a Reubenite, in whose honor a stone was erected which afterwards served as a boundary-mark on the frontier between Judah and Benjamin (Jos_15:6; Jos_18:17). It does not appear from the text whether this stone was a sepulchral monument, or set up to commemorate some great exploit performed by this Bohan in the conquest of Canaan.

Bohan
(Heb. Bohan', בֹּהִן, a thumb; Sept. Βαιών), a Reubenite, SEE BEN- BOHAN, in whose honor a stone was erected which afterward served as a boundarymark on the frontier of Judah and Benjamin (Jos_15:6; Jos_18:17). It does not appear from the text whether this stone was a sepulchral monument, or set up to commemorate some great exploit performed by this Bohan in the conquest of Canaan (comp. 1Sa_7:12). See STONE. Bunting(Itinerar. tot. S. Script. p. 144), mentioning Bahurim, says that near to it, in the valley, is a stone called Bohan, of extraordinary size, and shining like marble; but this wants confirmation (yet comp. Schwarz, Palest. p. 94). It was situated in the valley of Achor, between Beth-Arabah and Debir, apparently along the eastern side of the present Wady Dabr running into the Dead Sea. SEE TRIBE.
