Strong's Lexicon I-kabod: Ichabod Original Word: אִי־כָבוֹד Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew words אִי (i), meaning "no" or "not," and כָבוֹד (kabod), meaning "glory" or "honor." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Ichabod in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun with a unique historical context. Usage: The name "Ichabod" means "no glory" or "the glory has departed." It is used to signify the departure of God's glory from Israel, particularly in the context of the Ark of the Covenant being captured by the Philistines. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the Ark of the Covenant symbolized God's presence and favor. The capture of the Ark by the Philistines was a devastating event for Israel, indicating a severe spiritual and national crisis. The name "Ichabod" reflects the deep sense of loss and despair felt by the Israelites at this time.
