Tahpanhes
Opis
Tahpanhes = Tehaphnehes (Grki so jo imenovali “Daphne”, danes Tell Defenneh), starodavno egipčansko mesto na Tanitski veji Nila, približno 16 milj od Peluzija. Judje iz Jeruzalema so po smrti Gedalija (glej) pobegnili na to mesto in se tam za nekaj časa naselili [Jer 2:16 ; Jer 43:7 ; Jer 44:1 ; Jer 46:14 ]. Na tem mestu je bila odkrita platforma iz opeke, za katero obstaja vsak razlog verjeti, da je bila tlakovanje pri vhodu v faraonovo palačo. “Tukaj,” pravi odkritelj, gospod Petrie, “je potekala slovesnost, ki jo opisuje Jeremija [Jer 43:8 –10; “opekarna”, tj. tlakovanje iz opeke], pred poglavarji beguncev, zbranih na platformi, in tukaj je Nebukadnezar razprostrl svoj kraljevski paviljon” (R.V., “opekarna”).

Tahapanes
= Tahpanhes = Tehaphnehes, (called "Daphne" by the Greeks, now Tell Defenneh), an ancient Egyptian city, on the Tanitic branch of the Nile, about 16 miles from Pelusium. The Jews from Jerusalem fled to this place after the death of Gedaliah (q.v.), and settled there for a time (Jer 2:16 ; 43:7; 44:1; 46:14). A platform of brick-work, which there is every reason to believe was the pavement at the entry of Pharaoh's palace, has been discovered at this place. "Here," says the discoverer, Mr. Petrie, "the ceremony described by Jeremiah [(Jer 43:8 -10); "brick-kiln", i.e., pavement of brick] took place before the chiefs of the fugitives assembled on the platform, and here Nebuchadnezzar spread his royal pavilion" (R.V., "brickwork").
