The primary reference to Jada is found in <a href="/1_chronicles/2-28.htm">1 Chronicles 2:28, 32</a>.<br><br><b>Genealogical Context:</b><br>Jada is identified as a descendant of Judah, one of the twelve sons of Jacob, who is also known as Israel. Specifically, Jada is listed as a son of Onam. The genealogical line is significant as it traces the lineage of the tribe of Judah, from which King David and ultimately Jesus Christ, according to the New Testament, are descended.<br><br><b><a href="/1_chronicles/2-28.htm">1 Chronicles 2:28, 32</a> :</b><br>"The sons of Onam: Shammai and Jada. The sons of Shammai: Nadab and Abishur... The sons of Jada, the brother of Shammai: Jether and Jonathan. Jether died without children."<br><br><b>Family Lineage:</b><br>Jada is noted as the brother of Shammai, and he had two sons, Jether and Jonathan. The text highlights that Jether died without children, which may imply the continuation of the family line through Jonathan. This detail, while brief, underscores the importance of lineage and inheritance in the biblical narrative, particularly within the tribe of Judah.<br><br><b>Tribal Significance:</b><br>The tribe of Judah holds a place of prominence in biblical history. It is from this tribe that the Davidic line emerges, leading to the birth of Jesus Christ, who is often referred to as the "Lion of the tribe of Judah" (<a href="/revelation/5-5.htm">Revelation 5:5</a>). The genealogies in 1 Chronicles serve to establish the historical and theological foundations for the messianic expectations associated with the tribe of Judah.<br><br><b>Cultural and Theological Insights:</b><br>The mention of Jada, though brief, contributes to the broader tapestry of Israel's history. Genealogies in the Bible are not merely records of ancestry but are imbued with theological significance. They reflect God's covenantal promises to His people, the continuity of His faithfulness through generations, and the unfolding of His redemptive plan.<br><br>In the context of 1 Chronicles, the genealogies serve to remind the post-exilic community of their identity and heritage. They reinforce the continuity of God's promises despite the disruptions of exile and serve as a call to faithfulness and hope in God's future deliverance.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b><br>While Jada's mention in the Bible is limited, his inclusion in the genealogical records of Judah underscores the importance of each individual in the unfolding narrative of God's people. Through these records, the Bible communicates the enduring significance of family, heritage, and divine promise.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Jada</span><p>knowing<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Jada</span><p>(<i>wise</i>), son of Onam and brother of Shammai, in the genealogy of the sons of Jerahmeel by his wife Atarah.
