# Japhia (H3309G): A Proper Noun in Biblical Text Based on the lexical data provided, Japhia (יָפִיעַ) is a proper noun—a name rather than a common word with semantic range. It appears exactly once in the biblical text, which limits what we can determine about its function or significance from usage patterns alone. The data indicates this is a Hebrew name, but does not specify whether it belonged to a person, place, or other entity. Without additional contextual information from the lexicon entry—such as the biblical passage where it appears, the identity of the bearer of this name, or any etymological notes—we cannot establish broader patterns of usage or theological significance. The single occurrence means there is no comparative data to show how this term was used in different contexts or what role it played in biblical narrative or genealogy. To understand the actual importance of Japhia in biblical tradition, one would need to consult the specific biblical passage containing this name and examine historical or exegetical sources beyond the lexical entry itself. The lexicon confirms its existence as a Hebrew proper noun but does not provide sufficient data for meaningful analysis of its significance.
