(אסירי ), a city of Manasseh, mentioned in the Talmud (Tosephtah Mikvaoth, iv), and, according to rabbi Schwarz (Palest. p. 160), identical with Azirah, a village five miles (one hour) north of Nablfs (Van de Velde, Memoir, p. 291), meaning, probably, the Asiret el-Hatab laid down on the Ordnance Map two miles north of Nablis.
