Its strategic location made it a vital center for trade and commerce, particularly in the exchange of goods between the Arabian Peninsula and the Levant. The city was known for its involvement in the trade of precious metals and other commodities. During the reign of King Solomon, Eloth was developed as a key port for his fleet, enhancing Israel's economic prosperity and international influence.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/352d.htm">ayil</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"grove of lofty trees," the same location as NH0365a<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Elath (1), Eloth (3).<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">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">אֵילַת</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, of a location</b></font> (<em>lofty tree</em> (<em>s</em> collective?) i.e. palms? compare Di <a href="/interlinear/genesis/14-6.htm">Genesis 14:6</a>) town & harbour, northeast arm of Red Sea, hence called lanitic Gulf (= Gulf of Akaba, from neighbouring fortress) <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/2-8.htm">Deuteronomy 2:8</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_kings/14-22.htm">2 Kings 14:22</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_kings/16-6.htm">2 Kings 16:6</a> (twice in verse) (perhaps later designation for fuller <font class="hebrew2">איל פארן</font> q. v.) = <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Αἰλων</font>, <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Αἰλαθ</font> Greek <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Αἰλανα</font> etc.; = <font class="hebrew2">אֵלָה</font> (? <a href="/interlinear/genesis/36-41.htm">Genesis 36:41</a> see Di), <font class="hebrew2">אֵילוֺת</font> below <p> <font class="hebrew2">אֵילוֺת</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, of a location</b></font> id.
