Tappuah is mentioned in Joshua 15:34 as one of the towns in the Shephelah (lowlands) of Judah, along with other towns such as Zanoah, Enam, and Jarmuth. It is listed among the cities allotted to the tribe of Judah during the division of the Promised Land. The exact location of this Tappuah is uncertain, but it is distinguished from the Tappuah on the border of Ephraim and Manasseh.
A town in the valley or lowland of Judah; formerly a royal city of the Canaanites (Josh. 12:17; 15:34). It is now called Tuffuh, about 12 miles west of Jerusalem.
