Resen is a town in the Bible, about 906 km (563 miles) north-east of Jerusalem. The King James Version names it in 1 verse, Genesis 10:12.
Head of the stream; bridle, one of Nimrod’s cities (Gen. 10:12), “between Nineveh and Calah.” It has been supposed that the four cities named in this verse were afterwards combined into one under the name of Nineveh (q.v.). Resen was on the east side of the Tigris. It is probably identified with the mound of ruins called Karamless.
