Arabic Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to "bear fruit" or "produce."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Nob, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun referring to a location in the Old Testament. Usage: Nob is mentioned in the context of biblical narratives, particularly in the books of 1 Samuel and Isaiah. It is known as a city where priests resided and where significant events involving King David and King Saul took place. Context: Nob was a city in the territory of Benjamin, known for being a city of priests. It is most notably mentioned in 1 Samuel 21-22, where David, fleeing from King Saul, visits Ahimelech the priest in Nob. David receives consecrated bread and the sword of Goliath from Ahimelech. Subsequently, Saul, upon learning of this, orders the massacre of the priests of Nob, carried out by Doeg the Edomite, resulting in the death of 85 priests and the destruction of the city (1 Samuel 22:18-19). Nob is also referenced in Isaiah 10:32, where it is mentioned in the context of an Assyrian invasion, indicating its proximity to Jerusalem. The city's exact location is uncertain, but it is believed to have been near Jerusalem, possibly on the Mount of Olives or in its vicinity.
