Strong's Lexicon Addan: Addan Original Word: אַדָּן Part of Speech: Proper Name Location Transliteration: Addan Pronunciation: ad-dawn' Phonetic Spelling: (ad-dawn') Definition: Addan Meaning: Addan is a proper name referring to a specific individual or family group mentioned in the post-exilic period. Word Origin: The origin of the name Addan is uncertain, but it is a proper noun used in the Hebrew Bible. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Addan, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament. Usage: Addan is used as a proper noun in the context of genealogical records in the Hebrew Bible. It appears in the context of the return of the exiles to Jerusalem and Judah. Context: Addan is mentioned in the book of Ezra as part of the genealogical records of those who returned from the Babylonian exile. Specifically, Addan is listed among the families whose lineage could not be definitively traced back to Israel. This is found in Ezra 2:59, where it states: "The following came up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addan, and Immer, but could not prove that their families were descended from Israel." This indicates that Addan was part of a group whose genealogical records were either lost or incomplete, leading to questions about their Israelite heritage. The mention of Addan in this context highlights the challenges faced by the returning exiles in re-establishing their identity and heritage after the Babylonian captivity.
