MAACAH, MAACHAH* (Place)

Small kingdom in northern Transjordan alternately named Aram-Maacah in 1 Chronicles 19:6 (KJB “Syria-maachah”). According to Joshua 13:11, the states of Geshur and Maacah were between Gilead and Mt Hermon and they bordered the kingdom of Og, ruler of Bashan (Jos 12:4-5). Its people were reckoned as descendants of Nahor (Gn 22:24) and were the southernmost of the Nahorite tribes.
