<p> ''''' a ''''' - ''''' min´a ''''' - ''''' dab ''''' ( עמּינדב , <i> ''''' ‛ammı̄nādhābh ''''' </i> = "my people (or my kinsman) is generous or noble"): three persons bearing this name are mentioned in the Old Testament. </p> <p> (1) In Rth 4:19, Rth 4:20 and &nbsp;1 Chronicles 2:10 Amminadab is referred to as one of David's ancestors. He was the great-grandson of Perez, a son of Judah (&nbsp; [[Genesis]] 38:29; &nbsp;Genesis 46:12 ) and the great-grandfather of Boaz, who again was the great-grandfather of David. Aaron's wife, Elisheba, was a daughter of Amminadab (&nbsp;Exodus 6:23 ), while one of the sons, namely, Nahshon, occupied an important position in the Judah-clan (&nbsp;Numbers 1:7; &nbsp;Numbers 2:3; &nbsp;Numbers 7:12; &nbsp;Numbers 10:14 ). </p> <p> (2) In the first Book of Chronicles (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 6:22 ) Amminadab is mentioned as a son of Kohath (and therefore a grandson of Levi) and the father of Korah. But in other genealogical passages (&nbsp;Exodus 6:18; &nbsp;Numbers 3:19; &nbsp;1 Chronicles 6:2 ) the sons of Kohath are Amram, Izhar, [[Hebron]] and Uzziel, and in two places (&nbsp;Exodus 6:21; &nbsp;1 Chronicles 6:38 ) [[Izhar]] is mentioned as the father of Korah. </p> <p> (3) According to 1 Ch (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 15:10 , &nbsp;1 Chronicles 15:11 ) Amminadab was the name of a priest who took part in the removal of the ark to Jerusalem. He was the son of Uzziel, and therefore a nephew of Amminadab, son of Kohath (= Izhar). </p>
