Rehob

Rehob ("broad place") appears twice in Joshua's catalog of Asher's coastal inheritance (Joshua 19:28, 19:30) — likely two distinct settlements with the same name within Asher. It was also the northernmost point of the twelve spies' reconnaissance: "they spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, near Lebo-hamath" (Numbers 13:21). Asher failed to drive out the inhabitants of either Rehob during the conquest (Judges 1:31). The southern Rehob is identified with Tell el-Berweh in the Plain of Acco at the foot of the western Galilee mountains.
