    The form is tagged Noun · Proper in both occurrences. In Joshua 19:20 the APB renders it within the list “Rabbith, Kishion, and Ebez”; in Joshua 21:28 it appears among places given from Issachar, with “Kishion and its pasture.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name as “Kishion” in both verses: first in a place list and then in a statement that includes its pasture. It confirms the verse contexts rather than isolating the term beyond its proper-name use.
