Name of God’s Son

ΝΕΦΘΑΛΕΙΜʼ, νεφθαλειμʼ

NEPHTHALEIMʼ, nephthaleimʼ

Sounds Like: NEF-tha-lim

Translations: Naphtali, of Naphtali

From the root: ΝΕΦΘΑΛΕΙΜ

Part of Speech: Proper Noun

Explanation: This word refers to Naphtali, one of the twelve sons of Jacob, or the tribe descended from him, or the territory allotted to that tribe in ancient Israel. The final apostrophe (keraia) indicates that this is a numerical value, specifically 5000, but in this context, it is almost certainly a proper noun referring to Naphtali, with the keraia possibly being a scribal mark or a variant spelling.

Inflection: Singular, Masculine, Nominative or Genitive

Strong’s number: G3488 (Lookup on BibleHub)
