A town in the territory of Issachar. The name means 'two pits' or 'double pit,' possibly referring to wells or excavation sites. It appears in the list of cities allotted to the tribe of Issachar during the division of the Promised Land under Joshua.
While Chapharayim is a place name, its inclusion in Joshua's land allotment reminds us that God's promises are specific and detailed. Every village, every plot was part of the covenant inheritance. The meticulous land records demonstrate that God's faithfulness extends to the smallest details of His promises.
