Where is Koa in the Bible?

Koa is a people group mentioned in the Book of Ezekiel, specifically in Ezekiel 23:23, where the prophet references them among the nations and peoples. The exact geographical location of Koa is not definitively identified in biblical scholarship, though scholars generally associate them with ancient Mesopotamian peoples, possibly in the region of modern-day Iraq. Koa appears in Ezekiel's prophecies as part of the judgment narrative against Jerusalem and Samaria, highlighting the various foreign powers and peoples known to ancient Israel. While limited biblical information exists about Koa, their mention underscores the geopolitical context of the ancient Near East during the period of the Hebrew prophets.
