Berean Strong's Lexicon Yehonadab: Jehonadab Original Word: יְהוֹנָדָב Word Origin: Derived from יְהוֹ (Yehô, meaning "Yahweh") and נָדַב (nadab, meaning "to be willing" or "to give freely") Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Yehonadab in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, the concept of divine willingness or generosity can be related to Greek terms like χάρις (charis, G5485), meaning "grace" or "favor." Usage: Yehonadab means "Yahweh is willing" or "Yahweh has given freely." It is a theophoric name, incorporating the divine name Yahweh, indicating a person dedicated to or blessed by God. Yehonadab is primarily known as the son of Rechab, who played a significant role in the narrative of Jehu's purge of Baal worship in Israel. Cultural and Historical Background: Yehonadab was a member of the Rechabites, a nomadic clan known for their strict adherence to a lifestyle of abstinence from wine and a commitment to living in tents, as commanded by their ancestor Jonadab. This lifestyle was a protest against the Canaanite influence and a call to return to the simplicity and faithfulness of the patriarchal period. The Rechabites were respected for their faithfulness to their ancestral traditions, which were seen as a model of obedience to God's commands.
