Hawker's Poor Man's Concordance And Dictionary
We read Ezra 2:22 of this place; and some have thought that it was a city between Benjamin and the pleasant village of Anathoth, where Jeremiah dwelt. (Jeremiah 1:1) The name is derived from Nataph, gum or spice; probably so called from the precious gums produced there.
