Goshen
   (1.) A district in Egypt where Jacob and his family settled, and
   in which they remained till the Exodus (Gen. 45:10; 46:28, 29,
   31, etc.). It is called "the land of Goshen" (47:27), and also
   simply "Goshen" (46:28), and "the land of Rameses" (47:11; Ex.
   12:37), for the towns Pithom and Rameses lay within its borders;
   also Zoan or Tanis (Ps. 78:12). It lay on the east of the Nile,
   and apparently not far from the royal residence. It was "the
   best of the land" (Gen. 47:6, 11), but is now a desert. It is
   first mentioned in Joseph's message to his father. It has been
   identified with the modern Wady Tumilat, lying between the
   eastern part of the Delta and the west border of Palestine. It
   was a pastoral district, where some of the king's cattle were
   kept (Gen. 47:6). The inhabitants were not exclusively
   Israelites (Ex. 3:22; 11:2; 12:35, 36).
   
     (2.) A district in Palestine (Josh. 10:41; 11:16). It was a
   part of the maritime plain of Judah, and lay between Gaza and
   Gibeon.
   
     (3.) A town in the mountains of Judah (Josh. 15:51).
