His name means "brightness" or "splendor," which may reflect the hope or aspirations associated with his birth. Unlike some of David's other sons, Nogah is not mentioned elsewhere in the biblical narrative, suggesting that he may not have played a significant role in the political or religious life of Israel. The inclusion of his name in the genealogies underscores the importance of lineage and heritage in the biblical text, emphasizing the fulfillment of God's promises to David regarding his descendants.<p><b>Nepheg</b><br>Nepheg is another son of David, and like Nogah, he is not prominently featured in other biblical accounts. His name means "sprout" or "shoot," which can symbolize new growth or potential. This imagery is consistent with the biblical theme of God bringing forth new life and hope through the line of David. The genealogical record in Chronicles serves to affirm the continuity of David's line, which is significant in the context of messianic prophecy. The promise of a future king from David's lineage is a central theme in the Old Testament, ultimately pointing to the coming of Jesus Christ as the fulfillment of these prophecies.<p><b>Japhia</b><br>Japhia, another son of David, is also mentioned in the genealogical lists. His name means "shining" or "enlightened," which may reflect the aspirations or characteristics hoped for by his parents. The genealogies in Chronicles are not merely historical records but are theological affirmations of God's faithfulness to His covenant with David. While Japhia himself does not play a major role in the biblical narrative, his inclusion in the genealogy highlights the broader theme of God's unfolding plan through the Davidic line. This plan finds its ultimate fulfillment in the New Testament, where Jesus is identified as the Son of David, the promised Messiah who brings salvation to all nations.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/n/nogah.htm">Nogah</a></b><br>One of the sons of David, mentioned in the genealogical records of the tribe of Judah.
