Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to overturn or ruin.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Ivvah, as it is a specific proper noun related to a geographical location in the Hebrew Bible. Usage: The term appears in the context of a geographical location, specifically a city or region that was involved in historical events during the Assyrian period. Context: Ivvah, also known as Avva, is mentioned in the context of the Assyrian conquests. It is referenced in the Bible as a city whose gods were unable to protect it from the Assyrian empire. The city is listed among others that were conquered by the Assyrians, illustrating the futility of relying on false gods for deliverance. In 2 Kings 18:34 and 19:13, as well as Isaiah 37:13, Ivvah is mentioned alongside other cities such as Hamath and Arpad, which were also unable to withstand the Assyrian forces. The historical and geographical details of Ivvah remain uncertain, but it is generally understood to be located in Mesopotamia, possibly near the Euphrates River. The mention of Ivvah serves as a rhetorical device to emphasize the power of the Assyrian empire and the ineffectiveness of the gods of the conquered peoples.
