Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root נָשָׂא (nasa), meaning "to lift, carry, or bear."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the proper noun "Massa," as it is specific to the Hebrew genealogical context and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the New Testament. Usage: The term "Massa" is used in the context of genealogies and tribal affiliations in the Hebrew Bible. It appears as a name in the list of Ishmael's descendants. Context: Massa is identified as one of the twelve sons of Ishmael, the son of Abraham and Hagar, as recorded in the genealogical lists of Genesis. In Genesis 25:14, Massa is listed among the descendants of Ishmael: "Mishma, Dumah, Massa." These names are traditionally understood to represent tribes or regions associated with the Ishmaelite lineage. The mention of Massa in 1 Chronicles 1:30 reiterates its place within the genealogical framework of the tribes descending from Ishmael. The historical and geographical identification of Massa is not explicitly detailed in the biblical text, but it is often associated with a nomadic tribe or region in the Arabian Peninsula. The name Massa, along with the other Ishmaelite names, reflects the broader narrative of the spread and influence of Abraham's descendants through Ishmael, highlighting the fulfillment of God's promise to make Ishmael a great nation.
