" house of Aphrah"), a place named (only in  Micah 1:10, where there is evidently a play upon the word as if for עָפָר , dust) in connection with other places of the Philistine coast (e.g. Gath, Accho [ weep ye"], Saphir, etc.), and not to be confounded (as by Henderson, in loc., after Gesenius and Winer) with the Benjamite Ophrah ( Joshua 18:23), but probably identical with the present village Beit-Affia, 6 miles south-east of Ashdod (Robinson's Researches, 2, 369 note; Van de Velde, Map).
