Usage: Shepham is a geographical location mentioned in the Bible, specifically in the context of the territorial boundaries of the Israelites. It is noted as a point on the northern border of the land allocated to the tribes of Israel. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near East, territorial boundaries were crucial for defining the extent of a tribe's or nation's land.
