Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: Derived from פַּתְרוֹס (Pathros), which refers to a region in Upper Egypt.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew term פַתְרֻסִי (Pathrusi) as it specifically refers to a group associated with an Egyptian region, and the Greek New Testament does not directly address this term. However, the broader concept of Egypt and its regions may be referenced in Greek under terms related to Egypt (e.g., Αἴγυπτος • Strong's Greek 125).

Usage: The term "Pathrusite" is used to denote individuals originating from or associated with the region of Pathros in Upper Egypt. It appears in genealogical and geographical contexts within the Hebrew Bible.

Context: The Pathrusites are mentioned in the context of genealogies and territorial descriptions in the Hebrew Bible. Pathros, the region from which the Pathrusites originate, is identified as a part of Upper Egypt. This area is historically significant as it represents one of the ancient divisions of Egypt, often associated with the Thebaid or the southern part of the country.

In the Bible, the Pathrusites are listed among the descendants of Mizraim, the son of Ham, indicating their Egyptian heritage. This connection is found in the genealogical records of Genesis 10:13-14, where the descendants of Mizraim are enumerated. The Pathrusites are also mentioned in 1 Chronicles 1:12, which parallels the genealogical account in Genesis.

The mention of Pathros and its inhabitants highlights the broader narrative of the dispersion of nations and peoples following the events at Babel. The Pathrusites, as part of the Egyptian lineage, contribute to the understanding of the ancient world's ethnic and geographical divisions.

In prophetic literature, Pathros is referenced in the context of God's judgment and restoration of Egypt. For instance, in Ezekiel 29:14, the prophet speaks of the future restoration of Egypt, including the land of Pathros, indicating its continued significance in the biblical narrative.
