# Ituraea: A Single Biblical Reference Ituraea appears only once in the biblical text, making it a geographically specific proper noun rather than a word with semantic range or theological development. The lexicon identifies it simply as a place name, with no definition beyond the transliteration itself. This single occurrence limits what can be determined about its significance within Scripture. The minimal data provided—a Greek transliteration of what was likely a Semitic place name—indicates that Ituraea was a region known to biblical writers and their audience. However, the lexicon offers no contextual information about its location, political status, or role in the narrative where it appears. Without additional definition or usage notes, we cannot determine whether the place carried particular theological weight or served merely as geographical notation in its solitary biblical mention. For readers seeking to understand this term, the lexicon data alone cannot explain its historical context or why it warranted inclusion in Scripture. Further investigation beyond this lexicon entry would be necessary to understand what made Ituraea significant enough to mention and what its presence in the text communicates to biblical interpretation.
