Translations: Ephraim, of Ephraim

Part of Speech: Proper Noun
Explanation: Ephraim is a proper noun referring to the younger son of Joseph and the ancestor of one of the twelve tribes of Israel. It can also refer to the territory occupied by this tribe or the tribe itself. The apostrophe at the end indicates a keraia, which can mark a number, but in this context, it is more likely an elision of a final vowel, or simply a scribal mark. In this case, it is likely the genitive form of Ephraim.
