Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for En-Tappuach, as it is a specific Hebrew place name without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts.

Usage: En-Tappuach is a proper noun used to denote a specific location in the biblical land of Canaan. It is mentioned in the context of territorial boundaries.

Context: En-Tappuach is referenced in the Old Testament as a landmark within the territorial boundaries of the tribe of Ephraim. It is mentioned in Joshua 17:7, which describes the border of the land allotted to the tribe of Manasseh, extending from Asher to Michmethath, east of Shechem, and then southward to En-Tappuach. The location is significant in delineating the tribal territories during the division of the Promised Land among the Israelites. The name suggests a place characterized by a water source, possibly surrounded by apple trees or other fruit-bearing vegetation, indicative of the fertility and agricultural potential of the region.
