Iphtah

Iphtah was a Shephelah town in Judah's tribal inheritance, named in Joshua 15:43 in the catalog of the second lowland district: "And Iphtah, and Ashnah, and Nezib." The town appears only in this single boundary list and is uncertain in location. It lay somewhere in the inner Shephelah between the central highlands and the Philistine coastal plain, possibly identified with Tarqumiya or Khirbet et-Tabbaqah in the inner foothills southwest of Hebron.
