Taphnis, or Tanis, famous for the miracles of Moses. (Calmet)
Alexandria. In the Hebrew No, which was the ancient name of that city, which was afterwards rebuilt by Alexander the Great, and from his name called Alexandria. (Challoner)
Septuagint, "Memphis or Diospolis;" (Calmet) or Thebes, capital of Higher Egypt; (Bochart) though it seems rather a maritime town, Nahum iii. 8. (Calmet)
