Berean Strong's Lexicon Qoa: Qoa Original Word: קוֹעַ Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to vomit or to spew out. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for Qoa in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew place name without a corresponding mention in the Greek New Testament. Usage: Qoa is a place name mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. It is referenced as a location in the land of Israel, though specific details about its significance or characteristics are sparse in the biblical text. Cultural and Historical Background: The mention of Qoa in the Bible is limited, and as such, it does not have a well-documented historical or cultural background. It is one of the many place names that appear in the genealogical and territorial listings in the Old Testament, reflecting the ancient practice of recording land divisions and settlements. The name itself, derived from a root meaning "to vomit," may suggest a place that was considered undesirable or rejected, though this is speculative.
