Ephrain

VIEW:17 DATA:01-04-2020
A city of Israel which, with its dependent villages, Abijah and the men of Judah took from Jeroboam (2Ch_13:19). Possibly = Ephraim city above; also = EPHRON, MOUNT, on the northern bound of Judah (Jos_15:9).
Fausset's Bible Dictionary
By Andrew Robert Fausset, co-Author of Jamieson, Fausset and Brown's 1888.


E'phra-in. (hamlet). A city of Israel which Judah captured from Jeroboam. 2Ch_13:19. It has been conjectured that this Ephrain or Ephron is identical with the Ephraim, by which Absalom's sheep-farm of Baal-hazor was situated; with the city called Ephraim near the wilderness, in which our Lord lived for some time; and with Ophrah, a city of Benjamin, apparently not far from Bethel. But nothing more than conjecture can be arrived at on these points.

By Dr. William Smith.Published in 1863


ē?fra-in (2Ch_13:19), the Revised Version (British and American) EPHRON.

Ephrain
(Hebrews in the margin Ephra'yin, עֶפְרִיַן, but in the text Ephron', עֶפְרִוַֹן. ְe. עֶפְרוֹן, which latter appears to be the genuine reading, SEE EPHRON; Sept. Ε᾿φρών, Vulg. Ephron), a city of Israel, which, with its dependent hamlets ( בָּנוֹת= “daughters," A.V. "towns"), Abijah and the army of Judah captured from Jeroboam with Bethel and Jeshanah (2Ch_13:19). It appears to be mentioned in the Talmud (Menach. 9:1) as Ephraim (עֶפְרִיַם). It has been conjectured that this Ephrain or Ephron is identical with the EPH-RAIM by which Absalom's sheep-farm of Baalhazor was situated (2Sa_13:23); also with the city called EPHRAIM, near the wilderness in which our Lord lived for some time (Joh_11:54); and with OPHRAH (עָפְרָה), a city of Benjamin, apparently not far from Bethel (Jos_18:23; comp. Josephus, War, 4:9, 9), and which has been located by Dr. Robinson (Researches, new ed. 1:447), with much probability, at the modern village of et-Taiyibeh. (See Ewald, Geschichte, 3:219, 466; 5:365; Stanley, Palestine, page 210.) SEE EPHRAIM 3.
