Tap´puah, or Beth-Tappuah

A city in the tribe of Judah, not far from Hebron (). Robinson identifies it with an old village, called Teffuh, which he found upon the hills north-west of Hebron.

Another Tappuah lay in the plain of Judah, apparently in the vicinity of Zanoah, Jarmuth, Socoh, etc. (): which of these was the place conquered by Joshua is not very clear (; comp. 10:6).

Another place of the same name occurs on the confines of Ephraim and Manasseh ().

And in , a man of this name appears.
