However, the concept of "gift" can be related to the Greek word δῶρον (dōron, Strong's Greek 1435), meaning "gift."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The name Ethni is used in the Hebrew Bible as a proper noun, specifically as a personal name. It is understood to mean "gift" or "strong," reflecting the Hebrew root from which it is derived. In the context of the Bible, names often carry significant meanings that reflect the character or destiny of the individual.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, names were often given with the hope or expectation that the individual would embody the meaning of their name. The name Ethni, meaning "gift" or "strong," would have been a desirable attribute for a person, especially in a culture that valued strength and viewed children as gifts from God. The use of such names reflects the theological and cultural values of the time, where names were not just identifiers but also carried prophetic or aspirational significance.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain derivation<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>an Isr.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Ethni (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">אֶתְנִי</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>an ancestor of Asaph</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/6-26.htm">1 Chronicles 6:26</a> apparently identical with <font class="hebrew2">יְאָֽתְרַי</font> v.1 Chronicles 6:6. <p><font class="hebrew2">אֶתְנַן</font> see II. <font class="hebrew2">תנן</font>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Ethni <p>Perhaps from <a href="/hebrew/866.htm">'ethnah</a>; munificence; Ethni, an Israelite -- Ethni. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/866.htm">'ethnah</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>אֶתְנִ֥י אתני ’eṯ·nî ’eṯnî etNi<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/1_chronicles/6-41.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">1 Chronicles 6:41</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/6.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3"> בֶּן־ <b> אֶתְנִ֥י </b> בֶן־ זֶ֖רַח</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/1_chronicles/6.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> the son <span class="itali">of Ethni,</span> the son of Zerah,<br><a href="/kjvs/1_chronicles/6.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> The son <span class="itali">of Ethni,</span> the son of Zerah,<br><a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/6-41.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> the son <span class="itali">of Ethni</span> the son of Zerah<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_867.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_867.htm">Strong's Hebrew 867<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/etni_867.htm">’eṯ·nî — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/866.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="866"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="866" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/868.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="868"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="868" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
