Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name Seled, as it is a specific proper noun found in the Old Testament genealogies. Greek equivalents would typically be transliterations or adaptations of Hebrew names when they appear in the Septuagint or New Testament contexts, but Seled does not appear in these texts.

Usage: The name Seled appears in genealogical records within the Old Testament, specifically in the context of family lineage.

Context: Seled is mentioned in the genealogical lists of the tribe of Judah. He is identified as a descendant of Jerahmeel, who was the firstborn of Hezron. The genealogies in the Bible often serve to establish tribal and familial connections, and Seled's inclusion highlights his place within the broader narrative of the Israelite people.
• In 1 Chronicles 2:30, Seled is listed as one of the sons of Nadab, who was a descendant of Jerahmeel. The passage reads: "The sons of Nadab: Seled and Appaim. Seled died without children." This brief mention indicates that Seled did not have any offspring, which is a notable detail in the context of biblical genealogies where lineage and inheritance are significant themes.
• The genealogical records in Chronicles serve to trace the lineage of the tribes of Israel, emphasizing the continuity of God's covenant with His people through successive generations. Seled's mention, though brief, contributes to this overarching narrative by situating him within the family tree of Judah.
