Strong's Lexicon Bohan: Bohan Original Word: בֹּהן Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning "to be hollow" Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the proper noun "Bohan" as it is a specific Hebrew name used for a landmark. Usage: The name "Bohan" is used in the Bible to refer to a specific landmark, "the stone of Bohan," which is associated with the boundary descriptions of the tribal allotments in the land of Canaan. It is not used to describe a person or character but rather a geographical location. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, landmarks and boundary stones were significant for defining tribal territories. The stone of Bohan served as a reference point in the delineation of land allotted to the tribes of Israel. Such markers were crucial for maintaining order and clarity in land ownership and inheritance, which were central to the social and economic structure of Israelite society.
