(Heb. Ornan', אָרְנָן; Sept. Ο᾿ρνᾶ ; Targum usually אַרוְוָן, but also אַרְנוֹן,

אַרְנָן, אָרוֹוָן, and niM; Vulg. Ornan), the form in which the name of the Jebusite king, who in the older record of the book of Samuel is called Araunah, Aranyah, Ha-avarnah, or Haornah, is given in Chronicles (1 Chronicles 21:15; 1 Chronicles 21:18; 1 Chronicles 21:20-25; 1 Chronicles 21:28; 2 Chronicles 3:1). (See ARAINAH). In some of the Greek versions of Origen's Hexapla collected by Bahrdt, the threshing-floor of Ornan (Ε᾿ρνὰ τοῦ Ι᾿εβουσαίου ) is named for that of Nachon in 2 Samuel 6:6.
