Word Origin: Derived from the root חָקַק (chaqaq), meaning "to carve" or "to inscribe."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Chuqoq in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew place name without a direct counterpart in the Greek New Testament.

Usage: Chuqoq is a place name in the Hebrew Bible, referring to a town in the territory allotted to the tribe of Naphtali. The name itself suggests a sense of being "inscribed" or "engraved," possibly indicating a location marked by distinct geographical features or historical significance.

Cultural and Historical Background: Chuqoq was situated in the northern part of ancient Israel, within the tribal lands of Naphtali. This region was known for its fertile land and strategic location, which played a significant role in the agricultural and military activities of the Israelites. The name's root, associated with carving or inscribing, may reflect the area's natural landmarks or its importance in demarcating tribal boundaries.
