 II. צוּף noun masculine Ephraim ancestor of Elkanah and Samuel, ׳בֶּןצֿ 1 Samuel 1:1 (ἐν Νασειβ, ᵐ5 L υιὁῦ Σωφ), 1 Chronicles 6:20 Qr ᵐ5ᵑ9 (Kt ציף); apparently = צוֺפַי v. 1 Chronicles 6:11 (Levite), Σουφ(ει): hence probably אֶרֶץ צוּף 1 Samuel 9:5 (in Benjamin, τὴν(γὴν)Σ(ε)ιφ(α)).

צוּפִי adjective, of a people Suphite; — so read probably for צוֺפִים 1 Samuel 1:1 (We Klo Dr and most modern, after ᵐ5 Σ(ε)ιφα, A Σωφιμ).
