Achshaph (2)

Achshaph Tristram identifies this town with the modern Khaifa, at the mouth of the Kishon, north of Carmel (Bible Places, p. 215); but with little probability, as Khaifa, seems to be the חוֹŠ, choph (cove), or "haven" of Asher and Zebulon (Ge 49:13; "sea-side," De 1:7; "shore," Jg 5:17; Jer 47,:7; "coast," Jos 9:1; Eze 25:16).
