tō´ken (תּכן, tōkhen, “task,” “measure”; Codex Vaticanus Θόκκα, Thókka; Codex Alexandrinus Θόχχαν, Thóchchan): One of the cities of Simeon, mentioned with Rimmen and Ashan (). The name does not appear in Joshua's list (), but in that place the Septuagint gives Thokka, from which we may infer that the name has fallen out in the Hebrew. It is not identified.
