Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for Zanoach in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper noun specific to Hebrew geography. Usage: Zanoach is a name used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to two distinct locations. The name itself may imply a place that is "forsaken" or "rejected," though the biblical context does not necessarily reflect this meaning in its narrative. Cultural and Historical Background: Zanoach is mentioned as a town in the tribal allotment of Judah. It is one of the towns listed in the Shephelah, a region of lowlands in ancient Israel. The Shephelah was a strategic area, often serving as a buffer zone between the coastal Philistine cities and the hill country of Judah. The towns in this region were important for agriculture and trade. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originfrom zanach Definition two cities in Judah NASB Translation Zanoah (5).
