Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root נָדַב (nadav), meaning "to be willing" or "to volunteer."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Greek entries for the Hebrew name Nadab, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew Bible. However, the concept of willingness or generosity can be related to Greek terms such as ἑκούσιος (hekousios), meaning "voluntary" or "willing," though this is not a direct translation of the name Nadab.

Usage: Nadab is used as a proper noun in the Hebrew Bible, referring to specific individuals.

Context: • Nadab, Son of Aaron: Nadab was the eldest son of Aaron, the brother of Moses, and served as a priest. He is mentioned in the context of the consecration of the priests and the tabernacle. Nadab, along with his brother Abihu, offered unauthorized fire before the LORD, which led to their death as a divine judgment (Leviticus 10:1-2). This incident underscores the importance of obedience to God's commands in worship.
• Nadab, King of Israel: Nadab was the son of Jeroboam I and became the second king of the northern kingdom of Israel. His reign was marked by continued idolatry and evil in the sight of the LORD, following the sins of his father. Nadab reigned for two years before being assassinated by Baasha, who then took the throne (1 Kings 15:25-28). His short reign is a testament to the instability and moral decline in the northern kingdom during this period.
• Nadab, Son of Shammai: A lesser-known figure, Nadab is listed in the genealogies of the tribe of Judah (1 Chronicles 2:28, 30). His mention is primarily for genealogical purposes, contributing to the chronicling of the descendants of Judah.
