Easton's Bible Dictionary

Hara:

mountainous land, a province of Assyria (1Ch 5:26), between the Tigris and the Euphrates, along the banks of the Khabur, to which some of the Israelite captives were carried. It has not been identified. Some think the word a variation of Haran.

Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary

Hara:

a hill; showing forth

International Standard Bible Encyclopaedia

Hara:

ha'-ra (hara'; Septuagint omits): A place named in 1Ch 5:26 along with Halah, Habor and the river of Gozan, whither the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh were carried by Tiglath-pileser. In 2Ki 17:6; 18:11, Hara is omitted, and in both, "and in the cities of the Medes" is added. Septuagint renders ore Medon, "the mountains of the Medes," which may represent Hebrew hare madhay, "mountains of Media," or, ‘are madhay, "cities of Media." The text seems to be corrupt. The second word may have fallen out in 1Ch 5:26, hare being changed to hara'.

Smith's Bible Dictionary

Hara:

(mountain land) (1 Chronicles 5:26) only, is either a place utterly unknown or it must be regarded as identical with Haran or Charran.
