Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for נֶקֶב (Nekeb) as it is a specific proper noun referring to a location in the Hebrew Bible. Greek translations of the Old Testament, such as the Septuagint, may use transliterations or equivalent terms to refer to this location, but these are not directly linked to a specific Strong's Greek number. Usage: The term נֶקֶב (Nekeb) is used in the context of a geographical location within the biblical narrative, specifically as a city in the inheritance of the tribe of Naphtali. Context: • Nekeb is mentioned in the context of the division of the Promised Land among the tribes of Israel. It is listed as one of the cities in the territory allotted to the tribe of Naphtali. The city is noted in the biblical text as part of the inheritance that was distributed to the descendants of Naphtali, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. The specific mention of Nekeb highlights its significance as a recognized settlement during the period of the conquest and settlement of Canaan. The exact location of Nekeb is not definitively known today, and it is not frequently mentioned in other historical or archaeological records outside of the biblical text. The reference to Nekeb underscores the detailed nature of the territorial divisions described in the Old Testament, reflecting the historical and cultural context of the ancient Israelites.
