Strong's Lexicon Towb Adoniyahuw: Tob-Adonijah Original Word: טוֹב אֲדֹנִיָּהוּ Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Towb Adoniyahuw Pronunciation: tove a-do-nee-yah-hoo Phonetic Spelling: (tobe ado-nee-yah'-hoo) Definition: Tob-Adonijah Meaning: "Good is my lord Yahweh" or "Yahweh is my good lord." Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew words טוֹב (tov, meaning "good") and אֲדֹנִיָּהוּ (Adonijah, meaning "my lord is Yahweh"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew name טוֹב אֲדֹנִיָּהוּ (Tob-Adonijah) in the Strong's Greek lexicon, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun. However, the Greek equivalent for the name Adonijah (Αδωνιας) can be found in Strong's Greek Number 80 (Ἀδωνίας, Adonias), which may be used in the Septuagint or other Greek translations of the Hebrew Bible. Usage: This proper noun is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It is a compound name that reflects a theophoric element, indicating a relationship or attribute of Yahweh. Context: • Tob-Adonijah is a compound name found in the Hebrew Bible, combining the elements "Tob" (good) and "Adonijah" (my lord is Yahweh). This name is indicative of the cultural and religious practice of embedding the name of God (Yahweh) within personal names, reflecting the individual's faith or the parents' dedication to Yahweh. • The name is not widely mentioned in the biblical text, suggesting it may have been a less common name or used in specific genealogical or historical contexts. The use of such compound names was prevalent in ancient Israel, serving both as a personal identifier and a testament to the individual's or family's devotion to God. • The name Tob-Adonijah would have been understood by contemporaries as a declaration of the goodness and lordship of Yahweh, aligning with the broader theological themes of the Hebrew Scriptures that emphasize God's benevolence and sovereign rule.
