Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew proper noun רַבִּית (Rabbith), as it is a specific place name unique to the Hebrew Bible.

Usage: The term "Rabbith" is used in the context of a geographical location within the biblical narrative. It is mentioned in the context of the tribal allotments in the Book of Joshua.

Context: Rabbith is identified as a town located in the tribal inheritance of Issachar, as recorded in the Old Testament. The mention of Rabbith is found in the Book of Joshua, which details the division of the Promised Land among the twelve tribes of Israel. In Joshua 19:20, the town is listed among the cities given to the tribe of Issachar: "And Rabbith, Kishion, Ebez," (BSB). The exact location of Rabbith is not definitively known today, and it is not frequently mentioned in other biblical or extrabiblical sources. The name itself suggests a place of abundance or multiplication, possibly indicating a fertile or prosperous area. The historical and archaeological details about Rabbith remain limited, and it is primarily recognized through its biblical mention.
