H71 ʼĂbânâh
אֲבָנָה
ab-aw-naw'
Abana
Looking for Greek G71 ágō? It has the same number in Strong's Greek lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of H71. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.
ʼĂbânâh appears once in Scripture, in 2 Kings 5:12. In the Doxa app, open that verse, keep your notes on it, and ask Doxa Engage how it connects to what God has said to you.
Definition
Abanah, a river near Damascus
In the King James Version
Abana.
Derivation
perhaps feminine of H68 (אֶבֶן); stony; Compare H549 (אֲמָנָה).
Appears 1 time in Scripture
“Are not the Abanah and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not have washed in them and been cleansed?” So he turned and went away in a rage.”
