NOBAH

(Heb. nōḇaḥ)

(PLACE)

1. A region in Gilead conquered by Nobah the Manassite (Num. 32:40-42). After the Amorite kings Sihon and Og were defeated by the Israelites, the land was divided among the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh. This particular area belonged to Kenath and was renamed after Nobah. Its location is not certain, but modern Qanawât (302241) is possible.

2. A city in eastern Gilead near Jogbehah (Judg. 8:10-11). Gideon used the caravan route E of Nobah and Jogbehah to surprise Midianites at Karkor. Its location is not known, although it may be the same as Nobah 1 above.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
