Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the root נוּחַ (nuach), meaning "to rest" or "to settle."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name נוֹחָה (Nochah), as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew genealogical context. However, the concept of "rest" or "settling" can be related to Greek terms such as ἀνάπαυσις (anapausis • G372) meaning "rest" or "repose," which captures a similar thematic element.

Usage: The name Nochah appears in genealogical contexts within the Old Testament.

Context: Nochah is mentioned in the genealogical records of the tribe of Benjamin. Specifically, he is listed as one of the sons of Benjamin in 1 Chronicles 8:2. The name is part of the chronicler's effort to document the lineage and tribal affiliations of the Israelites, emphasizing the importance of heritage and family connections in the biblical narrative. The name itself, derived from a root meaning "to rest" or "to settle," may imply a sense of stability or peace, which could reflect the character or hoped-for qualities of the individual or his descendants. The genealogical records in Chronicles serve to establish the historical and theological continuity of the Israelite people, linking them to their ancestral promises and divine covenants.
