NAAMAH. 1 . Sister of Tubal-cain ( Genesis 4:22 ). 2 . Mother of Rehoboam ( 1 Kings 14:21; 1 Kings 14:31 , 2 Chronicles 12:13 ). 3 . A town of Judah in the Shephçlah ( Joshua 15:37-41 ). There is no notice of it elsewhere. Zophar the Naamathite is mentioned in Job ( Job 2:11 etc.), but there is nothing to connect him with this town. Possibly we may identify Naamah with Naneh , a small mud village on low ground 6 miles south of Ludd (Lydda).
