It is used in the Bible as the name of a well and a city. The term signifies a place of expansion and freedom, often associated with God's provision and blessing.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near East, wells were vital for survival, especially in arid regions. They were often sources of conflict due to their importance for sustaining life. The naming of wells and cities often reflected significant events or characteristics of the location. Rechoboth, as a name, suggests a place where there is ample space and resources, symbolizing peace and prosperity.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/7337.htm">rachab</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"broad places," a well dug by Isaac, also two cities of unc. location<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Rehoboth (3), Rehoboth-Ir (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">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">רְחֹבוֺת</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, of a location 1.</b></font> <font class="hebrew2">רְחֹבֹת עִיר</font> near Nineveh <a href="/interlinear/genesis/10-11.htm">Genesis 10:11</a> (J), <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">τῆν Ροωβως[θ] πόλιν</font>; Dl<sup>Pa 261</sup> compare Assyrian <i><em>rêbit Ninâ</em></i>, but see COT<sup>Genesis 10:11.</sup> <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>2</b></font> <font class="hebrew2">רְחֹבוֺת</font>, name of well <a href="/interlinear/genesis/26-22.htm">Genesis 26:22</a> (J), <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Εὐρυχωρία</font> (compare interpretation of <a href="/interlinear/genesis/26-22.htm">Genesis 26:22</a>); Palmer<sup>Desert 296 f.</sup> identification with <i>er-Ruµaibeh</i> (in Wady R.) approximately 45 miles southwest of Hebron, north of latitude 31°. </p><p style="sub1"><p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>3</b></font> <font class="hebrew2">הַנָּהָר</font> <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">ר</font>, home of a king of Edom <a href="/interlinear/genesis/36-37.htm">Genesis 36:37</a> (P) = <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/1-48.htm">1 Chronicles 1:48</a>, <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ροωβωθ τῆς παρὰ ποταμόν</font>, P. <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">τοῦ ποταμοῦ</font> (i.e. on Euphrates ? here improbable; conjectures in Di Holz Wkl<sup>Geschichte.
