Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine
Transliteration: Nowdab
Pronunciation: noh-DAHB
Phonetic Spelling: (no-dawb')
Definition: Nodab
Meaning: Nodab is a proper noun referring to a people or tribe mentioned in the Old Testament.

Word Origin: Derived from the root נָדַב (nadab), which means "to incite, impel, make willing."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew proper noun נוֹדָב (Nodab), as it is a specific name not translated into Greek in the Septuagint or New Testament texts.

Usage: The term "Nodab" appears in the context of a nomadic tribe or group associated with the Ishmaelites.

Context: Nodab is mentioned in the context of the genealogies and tribal associations found in the Old Testament. Specifically, Nodab is referenced in 1 Chronicles 5:19, where it is listed among the tribes that the Reubenites, Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh fought against. The passage reads: "They waged war against the Hagrites, Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab." This indicates that Nodab was a group or tribe that was part of the broader nomadic and semi-nomadic peoples inhabiting the region east of the Jordan River. The mention of Nodab alongside other tribes suggests that they were part of the complex socio-political landscape of the ancient Near East, often involved in conflicts and alliances with the Israelites and other neighboring groups.
