Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Paddan Aram in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific geographical location mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. Usage: Paddan, often referred to as Paddan Aram, is a region in Mesopotamia. It is primarily known as the homeland of the patriarchs, particularly in the context of the narratives involving Abraham's descendants. The term is used to describe the area where Abraham's family originated and where Jacob fled to find refuge with his uncle Laban. Cultural and Historical Background: Paddan Aram is located in the northern part of Mesopotamia, which is modern-day Syria and Turkey. It was a significant region during the patriarchal period, serving as a cultural and familial link for the Hebrew patriarchs. The area was known for its pastoral lifestyle, which is reflected in the biblical accounts of shepherding and livestock management. The region's significance is underscored by its role in the ancestral narratives of the Hebrew Bible, particularly in the stories of Isaac, Rebekah, Jacob, and Rachel.
