Secu (place name, location near Ramah)
A geographical name appearing in 1 Samuel 19:22, identifying a location near Ramah where Saul inquired about David's whereabouts during his pursuit. The site's exact identification remains uncertain. The LXX renders it as Sephi or Sephei, suggesting variant textual traditions. Some scholars propose emending the text to read 'Shephi' (שְׁפִי), while others defend the Masoretic reading. The name may relate to a root meaning 'outlook' or 'watchtower,' fitting a site where one would scan for fugitives. This location marks a point in the dramatic narrative of Saul's deteriorating pursuit of David.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — This proper noun identifies a place near Ramah where Saul sought intelligence about David's location. The phrase 'in Secu' (בְּשֵׂכוּ) indicates arrival at this site. English, Spanish, French, and German all transliterate the name differently, reflecting textual uncertainty: 'Sekhu,' 'Secu,' 'Sekhu.' The LXX's 'Sephi' suggests the Greek translators encountered a different consonantal text. The domain assignment to 'Properties, Relations' seems inappropriate—this clearly belongs to geographical locations or place names. The narrative context positions Secu as a waypoint in Saul's obsessive hunt. 1×
