Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root סֶנֶס (senes), meaning "palm branch" or "thorn bush."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew word סַנְסַנָּה (Sansannah) as it is a proper noun specific to a location in the Hebrew Bible and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the New Testament. Usage: The term appears in the context of a geographical location within the tribal allotments of Judah. It is mentioned in the Old Testament as part of the territorial boundaries. Context: Sansannah is identified as a town located in the southern region of the tribal inheritance of Judah. It is mentioned in the book of Joshua as part of the list of towns within the territory assigned to the tribe of Judah. The specific reference is found in Joshua 15:31, where it is listed among other towns in the Negev, the southern desert region of Judah. The name "Sansannah" is thought to be related to the Hebrew word for "palm branch" or "thorn bush," suggesting a possible characteristic of the area, such as the presence of palm trees or thorny vegetation. The exact location of Sansannah is not definitively known today, and it is not mentioned elsewhere in the biblical text, making it one of the lesser-known towns of Judah. Its inclusion in the biblical record highlights the detailed nature of the territorial descriptions in the book of Joshua, which aimed to document the inheritance of the tribes of Israel following their conquest of Canaan.
