Strong's Lexicon Gidoni: Gidoni Original Word: גִּדְעֹנִי Word Origin: Derived from the root גָּדַע (gada), meaning "to cut down" or "to hew." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "Gidoni," but the Greek name "Gedeon" (Γεδεών) corresponds to the Hebrew "Gideon" and is found in the New Testament in Hebrews 11:32, where Gideon is listed among the heroes of faith. Usage: The name "Gidoni" is not directly found in the canonical texts of the Hebrew Bible. It is likely a derivative or variant of the name "Gideon," which means "hewer" or "one who cuts down." Gideon is a well-known judge of Israel, famous for his military leadership and faith in God. Cultural and Historical Background: The name Gideon is associated with the period of the Judges in Israel's history, a time characterized by cycles of apostasy, oppression, repentance, and deliverance. Gideon, as a judge, was called by God to deliver Israel from the oppression of the Midianites. His account is a testament to God's power working through human weakness and faith.
