The meaning of Choba; Chobai in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)ko'-ba, ko'-ba-i (Choba, Judith 4:4; Chobai, 15:4 f.): A place named along with Jericho, Asora, and the valley of Salem (Judith 4:4; 15:4 f.). Reland's (Pal, 721) suggestion of Choabis, which the Peutinger Tables give as 12 Roman miles from Scythopolis, seems probable. It may be identical with el-Mekhubby, about 11 miles from Beisan (Scythepolis), and 3 miles from Tubas.
