About Rehob (of Asher)

Two cities that belonged to the tribe of Asher (Joshua 19:28–30). One of these cities was given to the Levites from the family of Gershon (Joshua 21:31). It became a city of refuge (1 Chronicles 6:75). The other city remained under the control of the Canaanites (Judges 1:31). Some scholars think these references might actually be talking about the same city.
