Strong's Lexicon Vophsi: Vophsi Original Word: וָפְסִי Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Vophciy Pronunciation: VOHF-see Phonetic Spelling: (vof-see') Definition: Vophsi Meaning: Vophsi is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to add or increase. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name Vophsi, as it is a unique proper noun specific to the Hebrew text. Usage: Vophsi is mentioned in the context of genealogies and tribal affiliations within the Israelite community. Context: Vophsi is identified as the father of Nahbi, who was one of the twelve spies sent by Moses to explore the land of Canaan. This account is found in the Book of Numbers. Vophsi is associated with the tribe of Naphtali, as Nahbi is listed as a representative from this tribe. The mention of Vophsi is brief, appearing in Numbers 13:14: "from the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi son of Vophsi." This reference situates Vophsi within the larger narrative of the Israelite journey through the wilderness and their preparation to enter the Promised Land. The name Vophsi itself does not appear elsewhere in the biblical text, and little is known about him beyond his paternal connection to Nahbi.
