English Bible Dictionary

Aphek, place

 

(strength), the name of several places in Palestine.

A place at which the Philistines encamped while the Israelites pitched in Eben-ezer, before the fatal battle in which the sons of Eli were killed and the ark was taken. (1 Samuel 4:1) This would be somewhere to the northwest of and at no great distance from Jerusalem.

I could be the same as the next entry here at St-Takla.org.
