The waters of Neptoah mark a point on the boundary between the tribal territories of Judah and Benjamin, mentioned twice in the border descriptions of Joshua (Josh. 15:9; 18:15). The name is commonly linked to the spring at Lifta, just northwest of Jerusalem, whose modern Arabic name preserves a similar sound. Beyond its role as a landmark in Judah's border survey, nothing else is recorded about it.
