However, the general term for "Pharaoh" in Greek is Φαραώ (Pharaō), which is used in the Septuagint and the New Testament to refer to Egyptian rulers. Usage: This proper noun is used to denote the Egyptian Pharaoh Hophra, who reigned during the 26th Dynasty of Egypt. He is mentioned in the context of biblical prophecy and historical events involving Egypt and Judah. Context: Pharaoh Hophra, known in Egyptian history as Wahibre Haaibre, was a ruler of Egypt during the 26th Dynasty, approximately from 589 to 570 BC. In the biblical narrative, he is mentioned in the Book of Jeremiah. Jeremiah 44:30 (BSB) states: "This is what the LORD says: 'I am about to hand Pharaoh Hophra king of Egypt over to his enemies who seek his life, just as I handed Zedekiah king of Judah over to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, the enemy who was seeking his life.'" This prophecy highlights the political turmoil and divine judgment pronounced upon Egypt during Hophra's reign. Hophra's rule was marked by internal strife and external threats, ultimately leading to his downfall. His reign is significant in the biblical context as it reflects the shifting power dynamics in the region and the fulfillment of prophetic declarations concerning the nations surrounding Israel and Judah.
