(2) A town in the territory of Ephraim (Joshua
16:7). It appears as "Naaran" in 1
Chronicles 7:28 (Codex Vaticanus Naarnan; Codex Alexandrinus Naaran). Eusebius,
Onomasticon (s.v. "Noorath") places it 5 Roman miles from Jericho. The name has
not been recovered, and no identification is certain. The position would agree
with that of el-'Aujeh, about 5 miles Northeast of Jericho.
