However, the Greek term for "desert" or "wilderness" (ἔρημος, erēmos) may be conceptually related due to the desert context of Paran.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>El Paran is a geographical location mentioned in the Bible, specifically in the context of the journey of Chedorlaomer and his allies. The name can be understood as "the terebinth of Paran" or "the oak of Paran," indicating a notable landmark or area within the larger region of Paran.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Paran is a desert region located in the northeastern part of the Sinai Peninsula, extending into the southern part of modern-day Israel and Jordan. It is historically significant as a wilderness area where the Israelites wandered during their exodus from Egypt. The mention of El Paran in Genesis 14:6 situates it within the narrative of the military campaign led by Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, and his allies against various groups in the region.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/352d.htm">ayil</a> and <a href="/hebrew/6290.htm">Paran</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"terebinth of Paran," a city and harbor on the Red Sea<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>El-paran (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">אֵיל מָּארָן</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, of a location</b></font> (<em>terebinth</em> (or <em>palm ?</em> see Di) <em>of Paran</em>) town & harbour at head of lanitic Gulf <a href="/interlinear/genesis/14-6.htm">Genesis 14:6</a> (see Di);
