Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for יְתְנָן (Jithnan) as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun referring to a location in the Old Testament, and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the New Testament.

Usage: The term יְתְנָן (Jithnan) is used in the context of a geographical location within the biblical narrative, specifically in the allotment of land to the tribe of Judah.

Context: Jithnan is mentioned in the context of the tribal allotments in the Book of Joshua. It is listed among the towns in the hill country of Judah. The specific reference to Jithnan can be found in Joshua 15:23, where it is included in the list of towns given to the tribe of Judah as part of their inheritance in the Promised Land. The exact location of Jithnan is not definitively known today, and it is not frequently mentioned elsewhere in biblical texts. The name Jithnan itself is derived from a root meaning "to give," which may reflect the town's role or significance in the context of the land distribution among the tribes of Israel.
