Tahtim Hodshi, the Land of
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
TAHTIM HODSHI, THE LAND OF . A place east of Jordan, which Joab and his officers visited when making the census for David ( 2 Samuel 24:6 ). It is mentioned between Gilead and Dan-jaan. The MT [Note: Massoretic Text.] , however, is certainly corrupt. In all probability we should read ha-Hittim-Kâdçshâh = ‘to the land of the Hittites, towards Kadesh [ sc. Kadesh on the Orontes ].’
