It is used to denote a place in the southern part of Judah and also as the name of a family that returned from the Babylonian exile.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The name "Telem" is associated with the post-exilic period when the Israelites returned to their homeland after the Babylonian captivity. The location of Telem in Judah suggests it was part of the tribal allotments given to the descendants of Judah. The return of the family of Telem highlights the restoration of the Jewish community and their re-establishment in the land of their ancestors.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from an unused word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>an Isr., also a place in the desert of Judah<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Telem (2).<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">טֶ֫לֶם</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, of a location</b></font> or <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>person</b></font> <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1. location</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>in the Negeb of Judah</b></font>, <a href="/interlinear/joshua/15-24.htm">Joshua 15:24</a> = <font class="hebrew2">טלאים</font> <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/15-4.htm">1 Samuel 15:4</a>, read perhaps <font class="hebrew2">טֵלָאם</font> We Dr. We reads <font class="hebrew2">טֵלָם</font> also for <font class="hebrew2">חוילה</font> <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/15-7.htm">1 Samuel 15:7</a>, compare Dr. <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>2. person</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>one of the porters</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/ezra/10-24.htm">Ezra 10:24</a>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Telem <p>From an unused root meaning to break up or treat violently;
