Strong's Lexicon Pi Hachiroth: Pi Hachiroth Original Word: פִּי הַחִרֹת Word Origin: Derived from Hebrew words פֶּה (peh, meaning "mouth" or "opening") and חִירֹת (chiroth, possibly related to "gorges" or "canals") Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Pi Hachiroth in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew place name. However, related concepts of "crossing" or "passage" might be linked to Greek terms used in the New Testament for similar events or ideas. Usage: Pi Hachiroth is a geographical location mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, specifically in the context of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. The name is often interpreted to mean "mouth of the gorges" or "opening of the canals," suggesting a place near water or narrow passages. Cultural and Historical Background: Pi Hachiroth is significant in the biblical narrative as one of the last encampments of the Israelites before they crossed the Red Sea. It is described as being located between Migdol and the sea, opposite Baal Zephon. The exact location of Pi Hachiroth is uncertain, but it is traditionally thought to be in the northeastern part of the Sinai Peninsula, near the Gulf of Suez. This area was part of the route taken by the Israelites during their escape from Egyptian bondage, a pivotal event in Jewish history.
