Strong's Lexicon Tsiqelag: Ziklag Original Word: צִקְלַג Word Origin: Of uncertain derivation Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Ziklag in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text. Usage: Ziklag is a town mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, primarily associated with the narratives of David. It served as a place of refuge for David when he fled from King Saul. The town is noted for its strategic location and its role as a base for David and his men during their time in Philistine territory. Cultural and Historical Background: Ziklag was a town located in the Negev region, which was under Philistine control during the time of David. It was given to David by Achish, the Philistine king of Gath, as a place for him and his followers to reside. This period was marked by David's complex relationship with the Philistines, as he sought refuge from Saul while maintaining his loyalty to Israel. Ziklag's location made it a significant site for military and political maneuvers.
