Usage: Arpad is a city mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, often in the context of Assyrian conquests. It is typically referenced alongside other cities as part of the Assyrian campaigns against the northern kingdom of Israel and surrounding regions. The name Arpad itself does not have a specific meaning in Hebrew, as it is of foreign origin.

Cultural and Historical Background: Arpad was an ancient city located in what is now modern-day Syria. It was a significant city-state during the Neo-Assyrian period and is frequently mentioned in Assyrian records. The city was known for its resistance against Assyrian expansion but was eventually conquered by the Assyrian king Tiglath-Pileser III in the 8th century BC. This conquest is reflected in the biblical narrative, where Arpad is often mentioned as a symbol of Assyrian military might and the futility of resisting their power.
