Where this word comes from
Derived from Latin Palaestīna (“Palestine”), from Ancient Greek Παλαιστίνη (Palaistínē, “Philistia and the surrounding region”). The Greek name probably reflects a Semitic ethnonym or place name connected with Biblical Hebrew פְּלֶשֶׁת (Pəlešet, “Philistia, land of the Philistines”), possibly transmitted through Aramaic. The precise route into Greek is uncertain. Compare Norwegian Nynorsk Palestina, Danish Palæstina, Swedish Palestina, German Palästina and English Palestine.
