The city's mention in the Bible highlights the interaction between the Israelites and the surrounding nations, as well as God's provision and sovereignty beyond the borders of Israel.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of Hebrew origin <a href="/hebrew/6886.htm">Tsarephath</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>Sarepta, a city near Sidon<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Zarephath (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 4558: Σάρεπτα</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Σάρεπτα</span></span> (<span class="manuref">Tr</span> marginal reading <span class="greek2">Σαρεφθα</span>; <span class="manuref">Tdf.</span> in O.
