Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Cor-Ashan, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts.

Usage: Cor-Ashan is a proper noun used to refer to a specific location mentioned in the Old Testament.

Context: Cor-Ashan is a location mentioned in the context of the tribal allotments and settlements in the Old Testament. It appears in the list of towns within the territory of the tribe of Judah. The name itself suggests a place characterized by smoke, possibly indicating a site known for its furnaces or smelting activities. The specific biblical reference to Cor-Ashan is found in 1 Samuel 30:30, where it is listed among the towns to which David sent spoils after his victory over the Amalekites. The exact location of Cor-Ashan is not definitively known today, and it is not frequently mentioned in biblical texts, which suggests it may have been a smaller or less significant settlement during the biblical period.
