Strong's H392 Akzib (אַכְזִיב) is the proper name of two distinct towns in the Old Testament: one in the Shephelah of Judah (near Adullam, mentioned in Joshua 15:44 and Micah 1:14) and one in the territory of Asher in northern Canaan (Joshua 19:29; Judges 1:31). The name shares the same root as H391, meaning "deceptive" or "lying."
The northern Akzib in Asher is notable because Judges 1:31 records that the tribe of Asher failed to drive out its Canaanite inhabitants — one of many failures of Israel to complete the conquest of Canaan. This partial obedience had long-term consequences, as the remaining Canaanite populations became snares of idolatry. The southern Akzib's prophetic wordplay (Micah 1:14) turned the town's name into a judgment oracle: what was built in pride would become a source of disappointment and shame. Place names in Scripture often carry prophetic weight.
