Japhletites
About
The Japhletites are named once, in the boundary of the lot that “came out for the children of Joseph” (Joshua 16:1): “it went down westward to the border of the Japhletites, to the border of Beth Horon the lower, and on to Gezer; and ended at the sea” (Joshua 16:3). Nothing more is told of them. Scripture does not say who they were, or whether they had any tie to Japhlet of the tribe of Asher (1 Chronicles 7:32).
