| 1236 | Strong’s #6847. Tsaphenath Paneach. Egyptian scholars thought it to mean “savior of the age”. “The Hebrews interpreted the Hebrew form of the word, revealer of a secret. See Targ., Syr., Kimchi.” Cf. Gesenius. Tsaphan (#6845) means to hide (by covering over) treasure up. This was used of Moses in Exodus 2:2,3 when his mother hid him for three months. Also used in Ps. 27:5, 31:29, 119:11, Prov. 10:14 etc. |
