Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from לוּד (Lud), which is a proper noun referring to a descendant of Shem.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew term לוּדִי (Ludi) in the Strong's Greek lexicon, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew genealogical context. However, the Greek term Λυδία (Lydia) may be considered related in terms of geographical and historical associations, though it is not a direct translation or equivalent.

Usage: The term "Ludite" is used to refer to the descendants of Lud, who are mentioned in the context of various genealogies and lists of nations in the Hebrew Bible.

Context: • The Ludites are mentioned in the genealogical records of the descendants of Noah. Lud is identified as a son of Shem, making the Ludites a Semitic people. The Ludites are often associated with the region of Lydia in Asia Minor, although some scholars suggest they may have been located in other areas of the ancient Near East.
• In the Bible, the Ludites are mentioned in the context of various prophecies and lists of nations. For example, in Isaiah 66:19, the Ludites are listed among the nations to whom God will send messengers to proclaim His glory: "I will set a sign among them, and I will send survivors from them to the nations—to Tarshish, Put, Lud, Meshech, Tubal, and Javan—to the distant islands that have not heard of My fame or seen My glory. And they will proclaim My glory among the nations."
• The Ludites are also mentioned in Ezekiel 27:10, where they are described as warriors in the army of Tyre: "Men of Persia, Lud, and Put served as warriors in your army; they hung their shields and helmets in you, bestowing splendor on you."
• The historical and geographical identification of the Ludites remains a subject of scholarly debate, with some associating them with the Lydians of Asia Minor, while others suggest connections to different regions or peoples.
