From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Kishion
      hardness, a city of Issachar assigned to the Gershonite Levites
      (Josh. 19:20), the same as Kishon (21:28).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Kishon
      winding, a winter torrent of Central Palestine, which rises
      about the roots of Tabor and Gilboa, and passing in a northerly
      direction through the plains of Esdraelon and Acre, falls into
      the Mediterranean at the north-eastern corner of the bay of
      Acre, at the foot of Carmel. It is the drain by which the waters
      of the plain of Esdraelon and of the mountains that surround it
      find their way to the sea. It bears the modern name of Nahr
      el-Mokattah, i.e., "the river of slaughter" (comp. 1 Kings
      18:40). In the triumphal song of Deborah (Judg. 5:21) it is
      spoken of as "that ancient river," either (1) because it had
      flowed on for ages, or (2), according to the Targum, because it
      was "the torrent in which were shown signs and wonders to Israel
      of old;" or (3) probably the reference is to the exploits in
      that region among the ancient Canaanites, for the adjoining
      plain of Esdraelon was the great battle-field of Palestine.
     
         This was the scene of the defeat of Sisera (Judg. 4:7, 13),
      and of the destruction of the prophets of Baal by Elijah (1
      Kings 18:40). "When the Kishon was at its height, it would be,
      partly on account of its quicksands, as impassable as the ocean
      itself to a retreating army." (See {DEBORAH}.)
     

From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]:
   Kishion, hardness; soreness
  

From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]:
   Kishon, hard; sore
