CHOBA
Village mentioned in the book of Judith as being fortified by the Jews when Assyrian commander Holofernes invaded Palestine (Jdt 4:4). The precise location cannot be identified, but it may be el-Makhubbi, three miles (4.8 kilometers) from Besan, or possibly the Hobah of Genesis 14:15. The account indicates that the Jews pursued Holofernes’ army to Choba and beyond Damascus (Jdt 15:4-5).
