The name "Ephraim" is derived from the Hebrew root meaning "fruitful," reflecting the blessing and prophecy given to him by his grandfather Jacob. Ephraim holds a prominent place in the history of Israel, both as an individual and as a tribe. Ephraim, the Individual: Ephraim was the second son of Joseph and Asenath, born in Egypt during the years of plenty before the famine (<a href="/genesis/41-52.htm">Genesis 41:52</a>). Joseph named him Ephraim, saying, "For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction" (<a href="/genesis/41-52.htm">Genesis 41:52</a>). Ephraim, along with his brother Manasseh, was adopted by Jacob as his own sons, thus receiving an inheritance among the tribes of Israel (<a href="/genesis/48-5.htm">Genesis 48:5</a>). Jacob's Blessing: In <a href="/bsb/genesis/48.htm">Genesis 48</a>, Jacob blesses Ephraim and Manasseh, but he places his right hand on Ephraim's head, signifying a greater blessing, despite Ephraim being the younger. Jacob declares, "His younger brother will be greater than he, and his descendants will become a multitude of nations" (<a href="/genesis/48-19.htm">Genesis 48:19</a>). This blessing set the stage for Ephraim's future prominence among the tribes of Israel. The Tribe of Ephraim: The tribe of Ephraim became one of the most powerful and influential tribes in Israel. It played a central role in the history of the nation, often leading the northern tribes. The territory allotted to Ephraim was fertile and strategically located in the central hill country of Canaan, including significant cities such as Shiloh, where the tabernacle was located for many years (<a href="/joshua/16-5.htm">Joshua 16:5-10</a>). Ephraim in the Conquest and Settlement: During the conquest of Canaan, the tribe of Ephraim was instrumental in the battles and settlement of the land. Joshua, a prominent leader and successor to Moses, was from the tribe of Ephraim (<a href="/numbers/13-8.htm">Numbers 13:8</a>). Under his leadership, the Israelites successfully entered and took possession of the Promised Land. Ephraim's Role in the United Kingdom: In the period of the united monarchy, Ephraim continued to hold a significant position. The tribe's influence is evident in the reigns of Saul, David, and Solomon. However, tensions between Ephraim and other tribes, particularly Judah, began to surface, foreshadowing future divisions. The Division of the Kingdom: After Solomon's reign, the kingdom of Israel split into two: the northern kingdom, often referred to as "Ephraim" or "Israel," and the southern kingdom of Judah. Jeroboam, the first king of the northern kingdom, was from the tribe of Ephraim (<a href="/1_kings/11-26.htm">1 Kings 11:26</a>). Ephraim's leadership in the northern kingdom was both a fulfillment of Jacob's blessing and a source of conflict with Judah. Prophetic References and Symbolism: Ephraim is frequently mentioned in the prophetic books as a symbol of the northern kingdom. The prophets often used Ephraim to represent the spiritual and moral state of Israel. Hosea, for example, speaks of Ephraim's idolatry and calls for repentance: "Ephraim is joined to idols; leave him alone!" (<a href="/hosea/4-17.htm">Hosea 4:17</a>). Ephraim in the New Testament: While the New Testament does not focus extensively on the tribe of Ephraim, its legacy continues as part of the broader narrative of Israel. The spiritual heritage of Ephraim, along with the other tribes, is woven into the account of redemption fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Conclusion: Ephraim's account is one of blessing, leadership, and complexity. As both an individual and a tribe, Ephraim's legacy is marked by fruitfulness, influence, and a pivotal role in the unfolding history of God's people.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div>Ephraimfruitful; increasing<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div>Ephraim(double fruitfulness), the second son of Joseph by his wife Asenath. (B.C. 1715-1708.) The first indication we have of that ascendancy over his elder brother Manasseh which at a later period the tribe of Ephraim so unmistakably possessed is in the blessing of the children by Jacob.

The portion of Ephraim was large and central, and embraced some of the most fertile land in all Canaan. It extended from the Mediterranean across to the Jordan, north of the portions of Dan and Benjamin and included Shiloh, Shechem, etc. A range of mountainous country, which runs through it, is called "the mountains of Ephraim," or "mount Ephraim." This extends also farther south into the portion of Judah, and is there called "the mountains of Judah." Samaria, the capital of the ten tribes, being in Ephraim, this latter name is often used for the kingdom of Israel, <a href="/isaiah/11-13.htm">Isaiah 11:13</a> <a href="/jeremiah/31-6.htm">Jeremiah 31:6</a> 50:19.

The intention of Joseph was that the right hand of the aged patriarch should be placed on the head of the elder of the two; but Jacob set Ephraim the younger before his brother, "guiding his hands wittingly." Before Joseph's death, Ephraim's family had reached the third generation (<a href="/genesis/50-23.htm">Genesis 50:23</a>). Ephraim, Gate ofOne of the gates of Jerusalem (<a href="/2_kings/14-13.htm">2 Kings 14:13</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/25-23.htm">2 Chronicles 25:23</a>), on the side of the city looking toward Ephraim, the north side.

In Joshua's time (<a href="/joshua/17-18.htm">Joshua 17:18</a>) these hills were densely wooded. They were intersected by well-watered, fertile valleys, referred to in <a href="/jeremiah/50-19.htm">Jeremiah 50:19</a>. Joshua was buried at Timnath-heres among the mountains of Ephraim, on the north side of the hill of Gaash (<a href="/judges/2-9.htm">Judges 2:9</a>). This region is also called the "mountains of Israel" (<a href="/joshua/11-21.htm">Joshua 11:21</a>) and the "mountains of Samaria" (<a href="/jeremiah/31-5.htm">Jeremiah 31:5</a>, 6: <a href="/amos/3-9.htm">Amos 3:9</a>).

The descendants of Joseph formed two of the tribes of Israel, whereas each of the other sons of Jacob was the founder of only one tribe. Thus there were in reality thirteen tribes; but the number twelve was preserved by excluding that of Levi when Ephraim and Manasseh are mentioned separately (<a href="/numbers/1-32.htm">Numbers 1:32</a>-34; <a href="/joshua/17-14.htm">Joshua 17:14</a>, 17; <a href="/1_chronicles/7-20.htm">1 Chronicles 7:20</a>).Territory of. At the time of the first census in the wilderness this tribe numbered 40,500 (<a href="/numbers/1-32.htm">Numbers 1:32</a>, 33); forty years later, when about to take possession of the Promised Land, it numbered only 32,500. During the march (see <a href="../c/camp.htm">CAMP</a>) Ephraim's place was on the west side of the tabernacle (<a href="/numbers/2-18.htm">Numbers 2:18</a>-24). When the spies were sent out to spy the land, "Oshea the son of Nun" of this tribe signalized himself.The boundaries of the portion of the land assigned to Ephraim are given in <a href="/joshua/16-1.htm">Joshua 16:1</a>-10. It included most of what was afterwards called Samaria as distinguished from Judea and Galilee. It thus lay in the centre of all traffic, from north to south, and from Jordan to the sea, and was about 55 miles long and 30 broad. The tabernacle and the ark were deposited within its limits at Shiloh, where it remained for four hundred years. During the time of the judges and the first stage of the monarchy this tribe manifested a domineering and haughty and discontented spirit. "For more than five hundred years, a period equal to that which elapsed between the Norman Conquest and the War of the Roses, Ephraim, with its two dependent tribes of Manasseh and Benjamin, exercised undisputed pre-eminence. Joshua the first conqueror, Gideon the greatest of the judges, and Saul the first king, belonged to one or other of the three tribes. It was not till the close of the first period of Jewish history that God `refused the tabernacle of Joseph, and chose not the tribe of Ephraim, but chose the tribe of Judah, the Mount Zion which he loved' (<a href="/psalms/78-67.htm">Psalm 78:67</a>, 68). When the ark was removed from Shiloh to Zion the power of Ephraim was humbled."Among the causes which operated to bring about the disruption of Israel was Ephraim's jealousy of the growing power of Judah. From the settlement of Canaan till the time of David and Solomon, Ephraim had held the place of honour among the tribes. It occupied the central and fairest portions of the land, and had Shiloh and Shechem within its borders. But now when Jerusalem became the capital of the kingdom, and the centre of power and worship for the whole nation of Israel, Ephraim declined in influence. The discontent came to a crisis by Rehoboam's refusal to grant certain redresses that were demanded (<a href="/context/1_kings/12.htm">1 Kings 12</a>). Ephraim, Wood ofA forest in which a fatal battle was fought between the army of David and that of Absalom, who was killed there (<a href="/2_samuel/18-6.htm">2 Samuel 18:6</a>, 8).

The Patriarch: The younger of the two sons of Joseph and Asenath, born in Egypt. He and his brother Manasseh were adopted by Jacob, and ranked as his own sons, each becoming the ancestor of a tribe in Israel. In blessing his grandchildren, despite their father's protest, Jacob preferred the younger, foreshadowing the future eminence of his descendants (<a href="/genesis/41-50.htm">Genesis 41:50</a>; <a href="/genesis/48-20.htm">Genesis 48:20</a>). In the Blessing of Jacob however, the two are included under the name of Joseph (<a href="/genesis/49-22.htm">Genesis 49:22 f</a>). 2. The Tribe: At the first census on leaving Egypt, Ephraim's men of war numbered 40,500; and at the second census they are given as 32,500 (<a href="/numbers/1-33.htm">Numbers 1:33</a>; <a href="/numbers/26-37.htm">Numbers 26:37</a>). See , however, article NUMBERS. The head of the tribe at the Exodus was Elishama, son of Ammihud (<a href="/numbers/1-10.htm">Numbers 1:10</a>). With the standard of the tribe of Ephraim on the West of the tabernacle in the desert march were Manasseh and Benjamin (<a href="/numbers/2-18.htm">Numbers 2:18</a>). The Ephraimite among the spies was Hoshea (i.e. Joshua), the son of Nun (<a href="/numbers/13-8.htm">Numbers 13:8</a>). At the division of the land Ephraim was represented by prince Kemuel, son of Shiphtan (<a href="/numbers/34-24.htm">Numbers 34:24</a>). The future power of this tribe is again foreshadowed in the Blessing of Moses (<a href="/deuteronomy/33-17.htm">Deuteronomy 33:17</a>). When Moses died, a member of the tribe, Joshua, whose faith and courage had distinguished him among the spies, succeeded to the chief place in Israel. It was natural that the scene of national assemblies, and the center of the nation's worship, should be chosen within the land occupied by the children of Joseph, at Shechem and Shiloh respectively. The leadership of Ephraim was further emphasized by the rule of Samuel. From the beginning of life in Palestine they enjoyed a certain prestige, and were very sensitive on the point of honor (<a href="/judges/7-24.htm">Judges 7:24</a>; <a href="/judges/8-1.htm">Judges 8:1</a>; <a href="/judges/12-1.htm">Judges 12:1</a>). Their acceptance of and loyalty to Saul, the first king chosen over Israel, may be explained by his belonging to a Rachel tribe, and by the close and tender relations existing between Joseph and Benjamin. But they were never reconciled to the passing of the scepter to Judah in the person of David (<a href="/2_samuel/2-8.htm">2 Samuel 2:8 f</a>). That Israel would have submitted to the sovereignty of Absalom, any more than to that of David, is not to be believed; but his revolt furnished an opportunity to deal a shrewd blow at the power of the southern tribe (<a href="/2_samuel/15-13.htm">2 Samuel 15:13</a>). Solomon's lack of wisdom and the crass folly of Rehoboam in the management of the northern tribes fanned the smoldering discontent into a fierce flame. This made easy the work of the rebel Jeroboam; and from the day of the disruption till the fall of the Northern Kingdom there was none to dispute the supremacy of Ephraim, the names Ephraim and Israel being synonymous. The most distinguished of Ephraim's sons were Joshua, Samuel and Jeroboam I. 3. The Territory: The central part of Western Palestine fell to the children of Joseph; and, while the boundaries of the territory allotted to Ephraim and Manasseh respectively are given in <a href="/nasb/joshua/16.htm">Joshua 16</a>; <a href="/joshua/17-1.htm">Joshua 17:1</a>, it seems to have been held by them in common for some time (17:14). The Canaanites in certain cities of both divisions were not driven out. It was probably thought more profitable to enslave them (16:10; 17:13). The boundaries of Ephraim cannot be followed with accuracy, but roughly, they were as follows: The southern boundary, agreeing with the northern border of Benjamin, started from Bethel, and passed down westward by nether Beth-horon and Gezer toward the sea (16:3; in verse 5 it stops at upper Beth-horon); it turned northward to the southern bank of the brook Kanah (Wady Kanah) along which it ran eastward (17:10) to Michmethath (the plain of Mukhneh); thence it went northward along the western edge of the plain to Shechem. It then bent eastward and southward past Taanath-shiloh (Ta`ana), Janoah (Yankun) to Ataroth and Naarah (unidentified) and the Jordan (16:7). From Ataroth, which probably corresponds to Ataroth-addar (16:5), possibly identical with the modern et-Truneh, the southern border passed up to Bethel. Along the eastern front of the land thus defined there is a steep descent into the Jordan valley. It is torn by many gorges, and is rocky and unfruitful. The long slopes to the westward, however, furnish much of the finest land in Palestine. Well watered as it is, the valleys are beautiful in season with cornfields, vineyards, olives and other fruit trees. The uplands are accessible at many points from the maritime plain; but the great avenue of entrance to the country runs up Wady esh-Sha`ir to Nablus, whence, threading the pass between Gerizim and Ebal, it descends to the Jordan valley. In this favored region the people must have lived in the main a prosperous and happy life. How appropriate are the prophetic allusions to these conditions in the days of Ephraim's moral decay (<a href="/isaiah/28-1.htm">Isaiah 28:1, 4</a> <a href="/jeremiah/31-18.htm">Jeremiah 31:18</a> <a href="/hosea/9-13.htm">Hosea 9:13</a>; <a href="/hosea/10-11.htm">Hosea 10:11</a>, etc.)! W. EwingEPHRAIM (2)(1) A position apparently of some importance, since the position of Baal-hazor (probably = Tell `Asur) where Abraham's sheep-farm was located, is determined by relation to it (<a href="/2_samuel/13-23.htm">2 Samuel 13:23</a>). That it lay North of Jerusalem seems to be indicated in <a href="/2_samuel/13-34.htm">2 Samuel 13:34</a>. It may be identical with the Ephraim of Eusebius, Onomasticon, 20 Roman miles North of Jerusalem, and therefore to be sought somewhere in the neighborhood of Sinjil and el-Lubban. Connected with this may have been the name Aphaerema, a district in Samaria mentioned in 1 Maccabees 11:34; Ant, XIII, iv, 9. (2) The town near the wilderness to which Jesus retired after the raising of Lazarus (<a href="/john/11-54.htm">John 11:54</a>). This probably corresponds to Ephrem of Eusebius, Onomasticon (s.v. "Afra") 5 Roman miles East of Bethel. This may be the place named along with Bethel by Josephus (BJ, IV, ix, 9). It probably answers to eT-Taiyebeh, a large village about 4 miles North of Beitin. The antiquity of the site is attested by the cisterns and rock tombs. It stands on a high hill with a wide outlook including the plains of Jericho and the Dead Sea. See <a href="../e/ephron.htm">EPHRON</a>. W. EwingEPHRAIM, FOREST OF(ya`ar 'ephrayim): The word ya`ar (Hebrew) probably agrees in meaning with the Arabic wa`r, which indicates a rough country, abounding in rocks, stones and scrub, with occasional trees; not a "forest," as we understand the term. Here Absalom was defeated and slain (<a href="/2_samuel/18-6.htm">2 Samuel 18:6</a>, the King James Version "wood of Ephraim"). It must be sought, therefore, East of the Jordan, in the neighborhood of Mahanaim; but no identification is yet possible.EPHRAIM, MOUNT(har 'ephrayim): Means that part of the mountain which fell to Ephraim (<a href="/joshua/19-50.htm">Joshua 19:50</a>, etc.). The natives speak today of Jebel Nablus, Jebel Cafed, etc., meaning that section of the central range which is subject to each city. It is better therefore to retain the rendering of the King James Version, and not to read with the Revised Version (British and American) "hill-country of Ephraim."WOOD OF EPHRAIM(<a href="/2_samuel/18-6.htm">2 Samuel 18:6</a>).
