Usage: The name Baana appears in the context of several individuals in the Old Testament. It is used to identify specific people, often in genealogical or administrative lists. Context: • Baana is a name mentioned in the Old Testament, associated with several individuals: 1. Baana, the son of Ahilud: He was one of Solomon's twelve district governors, responsible for providing food for the king and his household for one month each year. His jurisdiction included the region of Taanach, Megiddo, and all Beth Shan, which is near Zarethan below Jezreel, from Beth Shan to Abel Meholah, and across to Jokmeam (1 Kings 4:12, BSB). 2. Baana, the father of Zadok: He is mentioned in the context of the return from the Babylonian exile. His son, Zadok, was one of the leaders who returned with Zerubbabel (Nehemiah 3:4, BSB). 3. Baana, the son of Hushai: He is listed among the officials who served King Solomon (1 Kings 4:16, BSB). • The name Baana reflects the common practice in ancient Israel of using theophoric elements in personal names, although the specific meaning of Baana is not detailed in the biblical text.
