        <p> '''''a''''' -'''''bin´a''''' -'''''dab''''' ( אבינדב , <i> ''''''ăbhı̄nādhābh''''' </i> , "father of willingness," or, "my father is willing." This is according to the ordinary usage of the second word in the name - "willing" rather than "munificent" or "noble"): </p> <p> (1) The man in whose house the men of Kiriath-jearim placed the ark, after its return from the land of the Philistines, his house being either in [[Gibeah]] of [[Benjamin]] or "in the hill" ( 1 Samuel 7:1; 2 Samuel 6:3 , 2 Samuel 6:4 ). To account for the ambiguity note that <i> '''''gibh'āh''''' </i> means hill, and that the place-name Gibeah ordinarily has the definite article. It is natural to think that [[Abinadab]] was himself a man of Kiriath-jearim, though the account does not explicitly say so. The record is that the men of Kiriath-jearim were summoned to take charge of the ark at a time when no one else dared to have it ( 1 Samuel 6:20 , 1 Samuel 6:21 ); and the implication seems to be that they had no option to refuse. Possibly this was due to their being Gibeonites, and hereditary "bondmen" of "the house of my God" ( Joshua 9:17 , Joshua 9:23 ). However this may be, they "sanctified" Abinadab's son [[Eleazar]] to have charge of the ark. According to the [[Hebrew]] and some of the [[Greek]] copies, the ark was in Gibeah in the middle of the reign of King Saul ( 1 Samuel 14:18 ). </p> <p> About a century later, according to the [[Bible]] numbers, [[David]] went with great pomp to Kiriath-jearim, otherwise known as [[Baalah]] or Baale-judah, to bring the ark from Kiriath-jearim, out of the house of Abinadab in the hill (or, in Gibeah), and place it in [[Jerusalem]] ( 1 Chronicles 13:1-14; 2 Sam 6). The new cart was driven by two descendants of Abinadab. There may or may not have been another Abinadab then living, the head of the house. </p> <p> (2) The second of the eight sons of Jesse, one of the three who were in Saul's army when [[Goliath]] gave his challenge ( 1 Samuel 16:8; 1 Samuel 17:13; 1 Chronicles 2:13 ). </p> <p> (3) One of the sons of King Saul ( 1 Chronicles 8:33; 1 Chronicles 9:39; 1 Chronicles 10:2; 1 Samuel 31:2 ). He died in the battle of Gilboa, along with his father and brothers. </p> <p> (4) In 1 Kings 4:11 the King James Version has "the son of Abinadab," where the Revised Version (British and American) has [[Ben-Abinadab]] . </p>

        <p> Abin´adab (father of nobleness, or noble father). There are several persons of this name, all of whom are also called Aminadab—the letters b and m being very frequently interchanged in Hebrew. </p> <p> Abinadab, 1 </p> <p> Abinadab, one of the eight sons of Jesse, and one of the three, who followed Saul to the war with the [[Philistines]] ( 1 Samuel 16:8). </p> <p> Abinadab, 2 </p> <p> Abinadab, one of Saul's sons, who was slain at the battle of [[Gilboa]] ( 1 Samuel 31:2). </p> <p> Abinadab, 3 </p> <p> Abinadab, the [[Levite]] of Kirjath-jearim, in whose house, which was on a hill, the Ark of the [[Covenant]] was deposited, after being brought back from the land of the Philistines. It was committed to the special charge of his son Eleazer; and remained there seventy years, until it was removed by [[David]] ( 1 Samuel 7:1-2; 1 Chronicles 13:7) [ARK]. </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>

        <p> (Heb. Abinadab', אֲבַינָדָב, father of nobleness, i.e. noble; Sept. everywhere Ἀμιναδάβ, Vulg. Abinadab. [[Josephus]] Ἀβινάδαβος, Ant. 8:2, 3), the name of four men. </p> <p> 1. A [[Levite]] of Kirjath-jearim, in whose house, which was on a hill [ (See [[Gibeah]]) ], the ark of the covenant was deposited, after being brought back from the land of the [[Philistines]] ( 1 Samuel 7:1), B.C. 1124. It was committed to the special charge of his son Eleazar; and remained there eighty years, until it was removed by [[David]] ( 2 Samuel 6:3-4; 1 Chronicles 13:7). (See [[Ark]]). </p> <p> 2. The second of the eight sons of Jesse, the father of David ( 1 Samuel 16:8; 1 Chronicles 2:13), and one of the three who followed Saul to the campaign against the Philistines in which [[Goliath]] defied the army ( 1 Samuel 17:13), B.C. 1063, </p> <p> 3. The third named of the four sons of King Saul ( 1 Chronicles 8:33; 1 Chronicles 9:39), and one of the three who perished with their father in the battle at [[Gilboa]] ( 1 Samuel 31:2; 1 Chronicles 10:2), B.C. 1053. His name appears to be omitted in the list in 1 Samuel 14:49. </p> <p> 4. The father of one of Solomon's purveyors (or rather BEN-ABINIDAB is to be regarded as the name of the purveyor himself), who presided over the district of Dor, and married Taphath, Solomon's daughter ( 1 Kings 4:11), B.C. ante 1014. </p>
