👉 The word "Belford" appears in the Bible to be the name of an ancient city, most likely located on a peninsula between two rivers. It's used metaphorically to denote a person or place. In Genesis 25:18-20, this term is associated with Benjamin, who is said to have been "belforded" by the angel Gabriel as he was about to be crowned king. The word "Belford" is often translated into English and means "to shine forth" or "to appear before." It could also refer to the city of Bethel in 1 Samuel 2:5, where David is said to have been "belfored" by God after he had been given a vision.
