Strong's Lexicon Nophach: Nophach Original Word: נֹפַח Part of Speech: Proper Name Location Transliteration: Nophach Pronunciation: NO-fakh Phonetic Spelling: (no'-fakh) Definition: Nophach Meaning: Nophach is a proper noun referring to a location or a person in the biblical narrative. Word Origin: Derived from the root נָפַח (nafakh), meaning "to breathe" or "to blow." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for נֹפַח (Nophach) as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew Bible and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts. Usage: The term נֹפַח (Nophach) is used in the context of a geographical location or a person associated with the conquest narratives in the Old Testament. Context: Nophach is mentioned in the context of the Israelite conquest of the Transjordan region. Specifically, it is referenced in Numbers 32:42, where it is noted as a city captured and renamed by Nobah, a leader of the tribe of Manasseh. The passage states: "Nobah went and captured Kenath and its villages and called it Nobah after his own name." The city of Nophach, therefore, is associated with the territorial expansions of the Israelites as they settled in the land east of the Jordan River. The renaming of cities was a common practice in ancient times, signifying control and possession. Nophach's exact location is not definitively known today, but it is understood to be in the region of Bashan, which was known for its fertile lands and strategic importance.
