CHEPHIRAH

(Heb. kĕpîrâ)

One of the four Hivite cities that had made a covenant of peace with Joshua and the elders of Israel, thus escaping annihilation (Josh. 9:17). After the Exile the Israelites repopulated Chephirah, along with Kiriath-jearim and Beeroth (Ezra 2:25; Neh. 7:29). The city has been identified with modern Khirbet el-Kefîreh (160137), ca. 8 km. (5 mi.) WSW of el-Jîb (Gibeon).

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
