Meaning: Zanoach

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root זָנַח (zanach), meaning "to reject" or "to forsake."

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.
