Na'arath. (juvenile). (The Hebrew is equivalent to Naarah, which is, therefore, the real form of the name.) A place named in Joshua 16:7 only, as one of the landmarks on the southern boundary of Ephraim. It appears to have lain between Ataroth and Jericho, in the Jordan valley: Eusebius and Jerome speak of it as if well known to them - "Naorath, a small village of the Jews, five miles from Jericho."
