Dophkah
(Hebrews Dophkah’, , according to Gesenius, a knocking; accord. to Frst, cattle-driving; Sept. , by error of for ; Vulg. Dapaca), the eighth place of encampment of the Israelites in coming out of Egypt (Num 33:12). It was situated in the desert of Sin, on the eastern shore of the western arm of the Red Sea, probably at the mouth of Wady Feiran. SEE EXODE. Pococke (East, 1:235) thinks it lies east of Thor, in Wady Hibran; but this is apparently conjecture. Furst (Hebrews Handw. s.v.), after Seetzen (Zach’s Correspond. 27:71), says it is the modern el- Tobbacha; which, if the el-Tubukah of Robinson (Res. 2:388, 648), is far away, and probably the ancient Tagoba (q.v.); but if in the valley Kineh (Keil, Exodus page76), would be precisely opposite our location (Robinson, 1:121, 122).

This station and the next one, Alush, which lie between the encampment by the sea and Rephidim, have not been identified, and they are not alluded to in Exodus. It is possible that Dophkah is an erroneous transcription of Mafkah, the name of an Egyp. district near the Wady Maghara.
