However, the concept of God establishing or making straight can be related to Greek words like κατευθύνω (kateuthynō, Strong's G2720), meaning "to make straight" or "to direct."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Elteqon is a place name mentioned in the Bible, signifying "God is established" or "God establishes." It is a town located in the territory allotted to the tribe of Judah.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Elteqon is one of the towns listed in the inheritance of the tribe of Judah. The allocation of land to the tribes of Israel was a significant event, as it represented the fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham regarding the land of Canaan. The towns and cities within each tribal territory were important for establishing the identity and heritage of the tribes.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain derivation<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a city in Pal.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Eltekon (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">אֶלְתְּקן</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, of a location</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>a city in the tribe of Judah north of Hebron</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/joshua/15-59.htm">Joshua 15:59</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>Eltekon <p>From <a href="/hebrew/410.htm">'el</a> and <a href="/hebrew/8626.htm">taqan</a>; God (is) straight; Eltekon, a place in Palestine -- Eltekon. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/410.htm">'el</a> <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/8626.htm">taqan</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>וְאֶלְתְּקֹ֑ן ואלתקן veelteKon wə’eltəqōn wə·’el·tə·qōn<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/joshua/15-59.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Joshua 15:59</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/joshua/15.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">וּבֵית־ עֲנ֖וֹת <b> וְאֶלְתְּקֹ֑ן </b> עָרִ֥ים שֵׁ֖שׁ</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/joshua/15.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> and Beth-anoth <span class="itali">and Eltekon;</span> six<br><a href="/kjvs/joshua/15.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> and Bethanoth, <span class="itali">and Eltekon;</span> six<br><a href="/interlinear/joshua/15-59.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> and Maarath and Beth-anoth <span class="itali">and Eltekon</span> cities six<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_515.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_515.htm">Strong's Hebrew 515<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/veeltekon_515.htm">wə·’el·tə·qōn — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/514.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="514"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="514" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/516.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="516"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="516" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
