English Dictionary: Suph by the DICT Development Group
1 result for Suph
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Suph
      (Deut. 1:1, R.V.; marg., "some ancient versions have the Red
      Sea," as in the A.V.). Some identify it with Suphah (Num. 21:14,
      marg., A.V.) as probably the name of a place. Others identify it
      with es-Sufah = Maaleh-acrabbim (Josh. 15:3), and others again
      with Zuph (1 Sam. 9:5). It is most probable, however, that, in
      accordance with the ancient versions, this word is to be
      regarded as simply an abbreviation of Yam-suph, i.e., the "Red
      Sea."
