James Hastings Dictionary of the Bible: Lasha


Subjects in this Topic:

LASHA (Gen_10:19 marked the S.E. boundary of the land of the Canaanites. Jerome identified it with the hot springs of Callirrhoë, in the Wâdy Zerqâ Ma‘în. Wellhausen would identify it with Laish, on the N. frontier. There is nothing to support this but the resemblance in the name. Against it is the order in which the names occur. It cannot now be identified.
