The Hebrew root of "Hukok" suggests a place of enclosure or boundary, which may indicate its geographical or spiritual significance as a place set apart for the Levites. Historically, Hukok is believed to be located in the region of Naphtali, emphasizing the integration of the Levites into the broader community of Israel, serving as spiritual leaders and teachers.<p><b>Rehob</b><br />The name "Rehob" is derived from the Hebrew root "rachab," meaning "broad" or "spacious." This suggests a place of openness and perhaps prosperity. Rehob's inclusion as a Levitical city underscores the importance of providing for the Levites, who had no inheritance of their own, ensuring they had ample space and resources to carry out their priestly duties. Archaeologically, Rehob is associated with several sites, reflecting its historical significance and the enduring legacy of the Levitical cities.<p><b>with their pasturelands</b><br />The phrase "with their pasturelands" highlights the practical provision for the Levites, who relied on these lands for sustenance. The Hebrew term for "pasturelands" (migrash) indicates open lands surrounding the cities, designated for grazing and agriculture. This provision reflects God's care for the Levites, ensuring they had the necessary resources to support themselves and their families while they focused on their spiritual responsibilities. Scripturally, this allocation of pasturelands symbolizes the balance between spiritual service and practical needs, reminding believers of the importance of supporting those dedicated to ministry.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/h/hukok.htm">Hukok</a></b><br>A town allotted to the tribe of Asher, mentioned in the context of the Levitical cities.
