History

Yeshana was one of three cities, along with Bethel and Ephraim, that were captured by, Abijah of the: Kingdom of Judah during his war with Jeroboam of the——Kingdom of Israel (2 Chronicles 13:19). Charles Simon Clermont-Ganneau identified Ein Siniya with the Biblical Jeshanah and Isana of Josephus, but modern scholars question its location.
