It is located to the east of the Jordan River, extending from the Golan Heights in the north to the Yarmuk River in the south. The region is characterized by its lush landscapes and was renowned for its cattle and oak trees.<br><br><b>Biblical References and Historical Context</b><br><br>Bashan is first mentioned in the context of the conquests of the Israelites under Moses. The region was ruled by King Og, one of the last of the Rephaim, a race of giants. The Bible records the defeat of Og and the conquest of Bashan in <a href="/numbers/21-33.htm">Numbers 21:33-35</a>: "Then they turned and went up by the way of Bashan. And Og king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei. But the LORD said to Moses, 'Do not fear him, for I have delivered him into your hand, with all his people and his land. And you shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon.' So they struck him, his sons, and all his people, until there was no survivor left to him. And they took possession of his land."<br><br>The territory of Bashan was allotted to the half-tribe of Manasseh (<a href="/joshua/13-29.htm">Joshua 13:29-31</a>). It became known for its fortified cities, including Ashtaroth and Edrei, and its fertile plains, which were ideal for agriculture and livestock.<br><br><b>Geographical and Agricultural Significance</b><br><br>Bashan's geographical features contributed to its reputation as a land of abundance. The region's volcanic soil and ample rainfall made it one of the most fertile areas in the ancient Near East. This fertility is highlighted in <a href="/ezekiel/39-18.htm">Ezekiel 39:18</a>, where the cattle of Bashan are noted for their quality: "You will eat the flesh of mighty men and drink the blood of the princes of the earth as though they were rams, lambs, goats, and bulls&#8212;all of them fattened animals from Bashan."<br><br>The oak trees of Bashan are also mentioned in <a href="/isaiah/2-13.htm">Isaiah 2:13</a>, symbolizing strength and majesty: "against all the cedars of Lebanon, lofty and lifted up; and against all the oaks of Bashan."<br><br><b>Symbolism and Prophetic References</b><br><br>In biblical literature, Bashan often symbolizes strength and prosperity. The "bulls of Bashan" mentioned in <a href="/psalms/22-12.htm">Psalm 22:12</a> are metaphorically used to describe powerful adversaries: "Many bulls surround me; strong bulls of Bashan encircle me." This imagery underscores the might and intimidation associated with the region.<br><br>Prophetically, Bashan is referenced in the context of judgment and restoration. In <a href="/micah/7-14.htm">Micah 7:14</a>, the prophet speaks of God's care for His people, likening it to shepherding them in the fertile lands of Bashan: "Shepherd Your people with Your staff, the flock of Your inheritance, who dwell alone in a forest. Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead as in days of old."<br><br><b>Cultural and Theological Insights</b><br><br>Bashan's historical and agricultural wealth made it a symbol of God's provision and blessing. Its conquest by the Israelites demonstrated God's power and faithfulness in fulfilling His promises to His people. The region's repeated mention in prophetic and poetic texts highlights its enduring significance in the biblical narrative.<br><br>Throughout Scripture, Bashan serves as a testament to the richness of God's creation and the strength of His deliverance. Its legacy as a land of giants, fertile pastures, and mighty oaks continues to evoke themes of divine power and providence.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Bashan</span><p>in the tooth, in ivory<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Bashan</span><p>(<i>fruitful</i>), a district on the east of Jordan. It is sometimes spoken of as the "land of Bashan," (<a href="/1_chronicles/5-11.htm">1 Chronicles 5:11</a>) and comp. Numb 21:33; 32:33 And sometimes as "all Bashan." (<a href="/deuteronomy/3-10.htm">3:10,13</a>; <a href="/joshua/12-5.htm">Joshua 12:5</a>; <a href="/joshua/13-12.htm">13:12,30</a>) It was taken by the children of Israel after their conquest of the land of Sihon from Arnon to Jabbok. The limits of Bashan are very strictly defined. It extended from the "border of Gilead" on the south to Mount Hermon on the north, (<a href="/deuteronomy/3-3.htm">3:3,10,14</a>; <a href="/joshua/12-5.htm">Joshua 12:5</a>; <a href="/1_chronicles/5-23.htm">1 Chronicles 5:23</a>) and from the Arabah or Jordan valley on the west to Salchah (<i>Sulkhad</i>) and the border of the Geshurites and the Maachathites on the east. (<a href="/joshua/12-3.htm">Joshua 12:3-5</a>; <a href="/deuteronomy/3-10.htm">3:10</a>) This important district was bestowed on the half-tribe of Manasseh, (<a href="/joshua/13-29.htm">Joshua 13:29-31</a>) together with "half Gilead." This country is now full of interesting ruins, which have lately been explored and from which much light has been thrown upon Bible times. See Porter's "Giant Cities of Bashan."<a name="amt" id="amt"></a><div class="vheading2">ATS Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Bashan</span><p>Fat, fruitful, <a href="/context/numbers/21-33.htm">Numbers 21:33</a>, a rich hilly district lying east of the Jordan, and between the mountains of Hermon on the north, and those of Gilead and Ammon on the south. The country takes its name from its soft and sandy soil. It is celebrated in Scripture for its rich pasturage: "Rams, of the breed of Bashan," De 32:14; "Rams, bulls, goats, all of them fatlings of Bashan," <a href="/ezekiel/39-18.htm">Ezekiel 39:18</a>. The oaks of Bashan are mentioned in connection with the cedars of Lebanon, <a href="/isaiah/2-13.htm">Isaiah 2:13</a>. Modern travelers describe the country as still abounding with verdant and fertile meadows, valleys traversed by refreshing streams, hills crowned with forests, and pastures offering an abundance to the flocks that wander through them. In the time of Joshua, Argob, one of its chief districts, contained sixty walled towns, De 4:43 <a href="/joshua/20-8.htm">Joshua 20:8</a> 21:27. Bashan was assigned, after the conquest of Og and his people, <a href="/context/joshua/12-4.htm">Joshua 12:4</a>, to the half tribe of Manasseh. David drew supplies from this region, <a href="/1_kings/4-13.htm">1 Kings 4:13</a>. It was conquered by Hazael, but Joash recovered it, <a href="/2_kings/10-33.htm">2 Kings 10:33</a> 13:25. From Bashan came the Greek name Batanaea, in modern Arabic El-Bottein. But this latter only included its southern part. The ancient Bashan covered the Roman provinces named Gaulonitis, trachonitis, Auranitis, Batanaea, and Ituraea. </p><a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>Bashan, Hill of: (<a href="/psalms/68-15.htm">Psalm 68:15</a>), probably another name for Hermon, which lies to the north of Bashan. <p>Light soil, first mentioned in <a href="/genesis/14-5.htm">Genesis 14:5</a>, where it is said that Chedorlaomer and his confederates "smote the Rephaim in Ashteroth," where Og the king of Bashan had his residence. At the time of Israel's entrance into the Promised Land, Og came out against them, but was utterly routed (<a href="/numbers/21-33.htm">Numbers 21:33</a>-35; <a href="/deuteronomy/3-1.htm">Deuteronomy 3:1</a>-7). This country extended from Gilead in the south to Hermon in the north, and from the Jordan on the west to Salcah on the east. Along with the half of Gilead it was given to the half-tribe of Manasseh (<a href="/joshua/13-29.htm">Joshua 13:29</a>-31). Golan, one of its cities, became a "city of refuge" (<a href="/joshua/21-27.htm">Joshua 21:27</a>). Argob, in Bashan, was one of Solomon's commissariat districts (<a href="/1_kings/4-13.htm">1 Kings 4:13</a>). The cities of Bashan were taken by Hazael (<a href="/2_kings/10-33.htm">2 Kings 10:33</a>), but were soon after reconquered by Jehoash (<a href="/2_kings/13-25.htm">2 Kings 13:25</a>), who overcame the Syrians in three battles, according to the word of Elisha (19). From this time Bashan almost disappears from history, although we read of the wild cattle of its rich pastures (<a href="/ezekiel/39-18.htm">Ezek. 39:18</a>; <a href="/psalms/22-12.htm">Psalm 22:12</a>), the oaks of its forests (<a href="/isaiah/2-13.htm">Isaiah 2:13</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/27-6.htm">Ezek. 27:6</a>; <a href="/zechariah/11-2.htm">Zechariah 11:2</a>), and the beauty of its extensive plains (<a href="/amos/4-1.htm">Amos 4:1</a>; <a href="/jeremiah/50-19.htm">Jeremiah 50:19</a>). Soon after the conquest, the name "Gilead" was given to the whole country beyond Jordan. After the Exile, Bashan was divided into four districts, <p>(1.) Gaulonitis, or Jaulan, the most western; <p>(2.) Auranitis, the Hauran (<a href="/ezekiel/47-16.htm">Ezek. 47:16</a>); <p>(3.) Argob or Trachonitis, now the Lejah; and <p>(4.) Batanaea, now Ard-el-Bathanyeh, on the east of the Lejah, with many deserted towns almost as perfect as when they were inhabited. (see <a href="../h/hauran.htm">HAURAN</a>.) <a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">BASHAN</span><p>ba'-shan (ha-bashan, "the Bashan"; Basan): This name is probably the same in meaning as the cognate Arabic bathneh, "soft, fertile land," or bathaniyeh (batanaea), "this land sown with wheat" ("wheatland").<br><br>1. Boundaries:<br><br>It often occurs with the article, "the Bashan," to describe the kingdom of Og, the most northerly part of the land East of the Jordan. It stretched from the border of Gilead in the South to the slopes of Hermon in the North. Hermon itself is never definitely included in Bashan, although Og is said to have ruled in that mountain (<a href="/joshua/12-5.htm">Joshua 12:5</a>; <a href="/joshua/13-11.htm">Joshua 13:11</a>). In <a href="/deuteronomy/3-10.htm">Deuteronomy 3:10</a> Salecah and Edrei seem to indicate the East and West limits respectively. This would agree with <a href="/joshua/12-5.htm">Joshua 12:5</a>; <a href="/joshua/13-11.htm">Joshua 13:11</a>, which seem to make Geshur and Maacath the western boundary of Bashan. If this were so, then these unconquered peoples literally "dwelt in the midst of Israel." On the other hand <a href="/deuteronomy/4-47.htm">Deuteronomy 4:47</a> may mean that the Jordan formed the western boundary; while <a href="/deuteronomy/33-22.htm">Deuteronomy 33:22</a> makes Bashan extend to the springs of the Jordan. If Golan lay in the district in which its name is still preserved (el Jaulan), this also brings it to the lip of the Jordan valley (<a href="/deuteronomy/4-43.htm">Deuteronomy 4:43</a>). "A mountain of summits," or "protuberances" (<a href="/psalms/68-15.htm">Psalm 68:15, 16</a>: Hebrew), might describe the highlands of the Jaulan, with its many volcanic hills as seen from the West. "A mountain of God" however does not so well apply to this region. Perhaps we should, with Wetzstein (Das batanaische Giebelgebirge) take these phrases as descriptive of Jebel Chauran, now usually called Jebel ed-Druze, with its many striking summits. This range protected the province from encroachment by the sands of the wilderness from the East. On the South Bashan marched with the desert steppe, el-Chamad, and Gilead. Of the western boundary as we have seen there can be no certainty. It is equally impossible to draw any definite line in the North.<br><br>2. Characteristics:<br><br>Bashan thus included the fertile, wooded slopes of Jebel ed-Druze, the extraordinarily rich plain of el-Chauran (en-Nuqrah-see HAURAN), the rocky tract of el-Leja', the region now known as el-Jedur, resembling the Chauran in character, but less cultivated; and, perhaps, the breezy uplands of el-Jaulan, with its splendid reaches of pasture land. It was a land rich in great cities, as existing ruins sufficiently testify. It can hardly be doubted that many of these occupy sites of great antiquity. We may specially note Ashtaroth and Edrei, the cities of Og; Golan, the city of refuge, the site of which is still in doubt; and Salecah (Calkhad), the fortress on the ridge of the mountain, marking the extreme eastern limit of Israel's possessions.<br><br>The famous oaks of Bashan (<a href="/isaiah/2-13.htm">Isaiah 2:13</a> <a href="/ezekiel/27-6.htm">Ezekiel 27:6</a>) have their modern representatives on the mountain slopes. It seems strange that in Scripture there is no notice of the wheat crops for which the country is in such repute today. Along with Carmel it stood for the fruitfulness of the land (<a href="/isaiah/33-9.htm">Isaiah 33:9</a> etc.); and their languishing was an evident mark of God's displeasure (<a href="/nahum/1-4.htm">Nahum 1:4</a>). The "bulls of Bashan" represent blatant and brutal strength (<a href="/psalms/22-12.htm">Psalm 22:12</a>, etc.). It is long since the lion deserted the plateau (<a href="/deuteronomy/33-22.htm">Deuteronomy 33:22</a>); but the leopard is still not unknown among the mountains (<a href="/songs/4-8.htm">Songs 4:8</a>).<br><br>3. History:<br><br>In pre-Israelite days Bashan was ruled by Og the Amorite. His defeat at Edrei marked the end of his kingdom (<a href="/numbers/21-33.htm">Numbers 21:33</a> <a href="/joshua/13-11.htm">Joshua 13:11</a>), and the land was given to the half tribe of Manasseh (<a href="/joshua/13-30.htm">Joshua 13:30</a>, etc.). In the Syrian wars Bashan was lost to Israel (<a href="/1_kings/22-3.htm">1 Kings 22:3</a> <a href="/2_kings/8-28.htm">2 Kings 8:28</a>; <a href="/2_kings/10-32.htm">2 Kings 10:32 f</a>), but it was regained by Jeroboam II (<a href="/2_kings/14-25.htm">2 Kings 14:25</a>). It was incorporated in the Assyrian empire by Tiglath-pileser III (<a href="/2_kings/15-29.htm">2 Kings 15:29</a>). In the 2nd century B.C. it was in the hands of the Nabateans. It formed part of the kingdom of Herod the Great, and then belonged to that of Philip and Agrippa II.<br><br>W.
