Textual variants: Choba and the town Coba (Latin).
This is the only mention of the Ebionites in the Onomasticon . This is probably not a correct identification of the biblical site. The name is continued in at least three locations from Byzantine times. Probably Greek text pointed to today's kokaba southwest of Damascus.
In Interpretation of Hebrew Names "Choba, condemnation" (64).
947. Chabratha. Genesis 35:16; K. 172:4; L. 289:35.
The Hexaplaric information is supplemented with the late tradition of Rachel's tomb near Bethlehem (K. 42:10 and cf. K. 146:28). In Ephata (K. 82:10) the tomb is located near a Hippodrome. In Hebrew Questions (54) Jerome notes Chabratha is not a proper name.
In Interpretation of Hebrew Names "Chabratha, as if chosen or heavy" (64).
948. Chasbi. Genesis 38:5; K. 172:6; L. 289:37.
Textual variants: dollōm (Greek) and Adollam (Latin).
Possible located in the region of Eleutheropolis (K. 8:12) about 10 miles northeast at 'Ain el Kazbeh . No indication it was a ruin in the earlier Greek text (cf. Adullam K. 24:21). In the Hexapla (not noted here) Aquila translated this word and Jerome in Hebrew Questions (46) writes 'Chasbi therefore is not the name of a place, but is a lie."

Simple listing of station.
951. Chenereth. Numbers 34:11; K. 172:12; L. 289:44.
A summary of biblical information (Joshua 19:35) with added identification with Tiberias. At the death of Agrippa II Tiberias became an autonomous city. Called "oppidum" in Latin (K. 10:25 and Appendix I). This is not an exact equation since Tiberias is quite far south of the location of Chennereth, Gennesaret at Tell el 'Oreimeh . No location is given in the Greek.
In Interpretation of Hebrew Names "Chenneroth, sign of lutes or as if lamps" (80).
952. Chepheira. Joshua 9:17; K. 172:15; L. 289:46.
