Usage: Nogah is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It appears in genealogical contexts.

Context: Nogah is listed as one of the sons of King David in the Old Testament. The name appears in the genealogical records of David's descendants, specifically in 1 Chronicles 3:7. This passage is part of a larger genealogical listing that traces the lineage of the royal house of Judah. Nogah is mentioned among the sons born to David in Jerusalem, highlighting his place within the royal family. However, unlike some of his brothers, Nogah does not have a prominent role or narrative associated with him in the biblical text. His mention serves primarily to complete the genealogical record of David's offspring.

Biblical Reference:
• 1 Chronicles 3:7 (BSB): "Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia,"

The context of this passage is a genealogical listing, which is significant for understanding the lineage and heritage of the Davidic dynasty. The inclusion of Nogah in this list underscores the importance of family and lineage in the biblical narrative, even when individual stories are not elaborated upon.
