nō´dab ( נודב , nōdhābh ; Ναδαβαῖοι , Nadabaı́oi ): A H agrite clan which, along with Jetur and Naphish, suffered complete defeat at the hands of the trans-Jordanic Israelites (1 Chronicles 5:19 ). It has been suggested that Nodab is a corruption of Kedemah or of Nebaioth, names which are associated with Jetur and Naphish in the lists of Ishmael's sons (Genesis 25:15; 1 Chronicles 1:31 ), but it is difficult to see how even the most careless copyist could so blunder. There is a possible reminiscence of the name in Nudébe , a village in the Ḥauran .
