Strong's Lexicon Obéd: Obed Original Word: Ὠβήδ Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew name עוֹבֵד (Obed) Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H5744: עוֹבֵד (Obed) Usage: In the New Testament, Obéd is a proper noun used to refer to a specific individual in the genealogy of Jesus Christ. The name Obed means "servant" or "worshiper" in Hebrew. Obed is noted as the son of Boaz and Ruth, and the grandfather of King David. Cultural and Historical Background: Obed is a significant figure in the lineage of David, which is crucial for establishing the Messianic line leading to Jesus Christ. His account is rooted in the Book of Ruth, where his birth is seen as a blessing and a continuation of God's providence and faithfulness to His people. The inclusion of Ruth, a Moabite woman, in the genealogy highlights the theme of God's grace extending beyond Israel to the Gentiles.
