Strong's Lexicon Beeroth Bene-yaaqan: Beeroth Bene-jaakan Original Word: בְּאֵרֹת בְּנֵי־יַעֲקַן Word Origin: Derived from בְּאֵר (be'er, meaning "well") and בְּנֵי־יַעֲקָן (Bene-yaaqan, meaning "sons of Jaakan") Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for Beeroth Bene-yaaqan, as it is a specific Hebrew place name not translated into Greek in the Septuagint or New Testament. Usage: Beeroth Bene-yaaqan means "wells of the sons of Jaakan." It is a location mentioned in the Old Testament, specifically in the context of the Israelites' wilderness wanderings. The name suggests a place associated with water sources, which were vital for survival in the desert. Cultural and Historical Background: Beeroth Bene-yaaqan is one of the stations in the Israelites' journey from Egypt to the Promised Land. The mention of "wells" indicates the presence of water, a crucial resource in the arid wilderness. The "sons of Jaakan" likely refers to a clan or family group associated with this region. Understanding the geography and the significance of water sources in the ancient Near East helps illuminate the challenges faced by the Israelites during their travels.
