There are actually "two" Jordan rivers: the one from the slopes of Mt. Hermon to the Kineret (Sea of Galilee), and its continuation from the Kineret to the Dead Sea. The main importance of the Jordan River is in its first portion, which is the Kineret's major supply of fresh water.
Because the country of Jordan is arid, it (like Israel) sees the river as one of its water-sources. Also, the river is Jordan's western border.
For Syria, besides fresh water, the river has the significance that some of its northern stream-tributaries used to be within the borders of Syria and are now in the Israeli Golan Heights.
