Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew roots שִׁן (shin) meaning "tooth" and אָב (ab) meaning "father."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the proper noun Shinab, as it is a specific Hebrew name without a Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts. Usage: Shinab is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. Context: Shinab is mentioned in the context of the narrative of the battle of the kings in Genesis 14. He is identified as the king of Admah, one of the cities of the plain, which was involved in the conflict against Chedorlaomer and his allies. The passage in Genesis 14:2 states: "that they made war with Bera king of Sodom, Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar)." This battle is significant as it sets the stage for the rescue of Lot by Abram (later Abraham). The historical and geographical context of Admah, along with its association with the other cities of the plain, suggests a location near the Dead Sea, which was later destroyed due to its wickedness as described in the biblical narrative.
