kish´i-on, kish´yon (קש×יון, kÌ£ishyoÌ„n): A city in the territory of Issachar (), given to the Gershonite Levites (; the King James Version wrongly “Kishonâ€). The parallel passage in reads “Kedesh†instead of “Kishion.†The true reading is probably קדש×יון, kÌ£idhshoÌ„n. Conder suggests a likely identification with Tell AbuÌ„ KÌ£edes, not far from Taanach.
