Overview
Nobah was a warrior from the half-tribe of Manasseh who played a role in Israel's conquest of the land east of the Jordan River. He captured a city and named it after himself, Nobah, which became a landmark in the region. This incident occurred during the time of Moses when the Israelites were claiming their inheritance in Transjordan.
Key Scriptures
