Etymology

The name "Elifelet" belongs to several characters in the Hebrew Bible, for example one of the sons of King David (Script error: No such module "Bibleverse".) and a repatriate after the Babylonian Captivity (Script error: No such module "Bibleverse".).[1]

History

The moshav was founded in 1949 by immigrants from Yemen belonging to the Moshavim Movement on the former village grounds of the depopulated Palestinian village of al-Zanghariyya.[2] Although it was abandoned after several years, it was resettled during the 1950s by immigrants from North Africa and Iraq.

The moshav is known for producing edible grasshoppers for culinary use.[3]
