Usage: Nepheg is a personal name found in the Hebrew Bible. It is used to identify one of the sons of David, the second king of Israel. The name itself does not carry a specific meaning in the biblical text, but it is part of the genealogical records that highlight the lineage and family of King David.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, genealogies were significant for establishing tribal affiliations, inheritance rights, and fulfilling God's covenant promises, particularly those related to the Davidic line.
