Abron

A stream or dry riverbed mentioned in the Book of Judith. It was located on the path that Nebuchadnezzar’s general, Holofernes, took during his attack (Judith 2:24).

Some early scholars thought it with the biblical Jabbok (Numbers 21:24). Others called it the Cherbon, maybe because of a misreading of Habor (2 Kings 17:6).
