Places › Bor-ashan
Bor-ashan is a town in the Bible, about 69 km (43 miles) south-west of Jerusalem. The King James Version names it in 1 verse, 1 Samuel 30:30.
Smoking furnace, one of the places where “David himself and his men were wont to haunt” (1 Sam. 30:30, 31). It is probably identical with Ashan (Josh. 15:42; 19:7), a Simeonite city in the Negeb, i.e., the south, belonging to Judah. The word ought, according to another reading, to be “Bor-ashan.”
