Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the proper noun "Nob" in the Septuagint or New Testament, as it is a specific location name in the Hebrew Bible.

Usage: Nob is a city mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, known primarily as a priestly city in the territory of Benjamin. It is most notably referenced in the context of King Saul's reign and the narrative involving David.

Cultural and Historical Background: Nob was a significant city during the time of King Saul, serving as a sanctuary for the priests of Israel. It was located near Jerusalem, making it a strategic and religiously important site. The city is most famously associated with the tragic event where King Saul ordered the massacre of the priests of Nob, as recounted in 1 Samuel 22. This act was a result of Saul's jealousy and paranoia regarding David, who had sought refuge and assistance from Ahimelech, the priest at Nob.
