Strong's Lexicon Nodab: Nodab Original Word: נוֹדָב Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root נָדַב (nadab), meaning "to volunteer" or "to offer willingly." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Nodab in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text. However, the concept of voluntary offering or willingness can be related to Greek words like ἑκούσιος (hekousios - G1635), meaning "voluntary" or "willing." Usage: Nodab is a proper noun used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to a specific group or tribe. The name itself suggests a connotation of willingness or voluntary action, possibly indicating a characteristic or historical action associated with this group. Cultural and Historical Background: The mention of Nodab in the Bible is limited, and thus, specific historical details about this group are sparse. However, the context in which Nodab is mentioned suggests they were a nomadic or semi-nomadic tribe, possibly involved in regional conflicts or alliances during the time of the Israelite settlement in Canaan. The root of the name implies a cultural emphasis on voluntary service or offerings, which may reflect their societal values or practices.
