Old Testament
Raphu
An Israelite of the tribe of Ephraim and the father of Palti, one of the twelve spies sent to Canaan.
Raphu is mentioned in Numbers 13:9 as the father of Palti, the representative from the tribe of Ephraim chosen by Moses to scout the land of Canaan. His significance in the biblical record is limited to his role as a genealogical link identifying Palti among the twelve tribal leaders tasked with this mission.
