Strong’s Greek Lexicon
feminine of G2453 (with G1093 implied); the Judaean land (i.e. Judaea), a region of Palestine:—Judaea.
Owing to changes in the enumeration while in progress, there were no words left for numbers 2717 and 3203–3302, which were therefore silently dropped out of the vocabulary and references as redundant.
