The name that is transliterated as «Chorazin» in English means «a furnace of smoke.» (Source: Cornwall / Smith 1997 )
In Libras (Brazilian Sign Language) it is translated with a sign that combines the signs for «close to Capernaum » and «river» because of the location in proximity to Capernaum and a river. (Source: Missão Kophós )
