It is mentioned in the context of the allotment of land to the tribe of Judah. The name Dannah means "judgment" or "he judged," which may reflect the town's role or significance in the region. The exact location of Dannah is not definitively known today, but it is believed to be near Hebron, a significant city in biblical history. Hebron was a city of refuge and a place where Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob had connections, adding historical depth to the region.<p><b>Kiriath-sannah (that is, Debir)</b><br>Kiriath-sannah, also known as Debir, is another town in the hill country of Judah. The name Kiriath-sannah means "City of the Book," which may indicate a place of learning or record-keeping. Debir, meaning "oracle" or "sanctuary," suggests a place of religious significance. Debir was previously known as Kiriath-sepher, which also means "City of the Book," reinforcing the idea of its scholarly or religious importance. This town was conquered by Joshua as part of the Israelite campaign to take possession of the Promised Land (<a href="/joshua/10-38.htm">Joshua 10:38-39</a>). The conquest of Debir is significant as it demonstrates the fulfillment of God's promise to give the land to the Israelites.
