Tahpanhes, Tehaphnehes, Tahapanes a city of Egypt, mentioned in the time of the prophets Jeremiah and Ezekiel. The name is evidently Egyptian, and closely resembles that of the Egyptian queen Tahpenes. It was evidently a town of lower Egypt, near or on the eastern border. When Johanan and the other captains went into Egypt "they came to Tahpanhes." Jer 43:7 The Jews in Jeremiah's time remained here. Jer 44:1 It was an important town, being twice mentioned by the latter prophet with Noph or Memphis. Jer 2:16; 46:14 Here stood a house of Pharaoh-hophra before which Jeremiah hid great stones. Jer 43:8-10 |
