na'arah; Codex Vaticanus hai komai auton; Codex Alexandrinus Naaratha; the King James Version Naarath):

(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.
