Zanoah () is a moshav in central Israel. Located adjacent to Beit Shemesh, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Yehuda Regional Council. In it had a population of .
==Modern history== The village was established in 1950 by immigrants from Yemen, and was initially named Dayraban Gimel after the nearby depopulated Palestinian village of Dayr Aban. Subsequently, the moshav was renamed Zanoah after the ancient biblical settlement in the Judean Lowlands, mentioned in the Book of Joshua (15:33-34). It is possible that this settlement appears in the Amarna letters under the name "Zano". The ancient settlement is identified with Khurbet Zanuʻ, 1 km south of the moshav. In the following years the founders left and were replaced by immigrants from Morocco.
