Zuph

• A Kohathite Levite, ancestor of Elkanah and Samuel ; called also Zophai and Ziph.
• Land of Zuph, a district in which lay Samuel's city, Ramathaim-Zophim. It was probably so named after Zuph. Zuph and the city of Ramathaim-Zophim are mentioned in the bible together with Mount Ephraim, suggesting that they shared a similar locality.
