It is used as a proper noun, identifying a descendant of Seir the Horite. The name itself may carry the connotation of "antelope" or "thresher," reflecting either a characteristic of the individual or a symbolic meaning.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near Eastern context, genealogies were crucial for establishing identity, inheritance rights, and tribal affiliations. The Horites, to whom Dishon belonged, were a group of people who lived in the region of Seir before the Edomites. Understanding the genealogical records helps in tracing the movements and relationships of various tribes and peoples in biblical history.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/1758.htm">dush</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>mountain goat (a cermonially clean animal)<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>ibex (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> I. <font class="hebrew2">דִּישֹׁן</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>a clean animal</b></font>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">πύγαργος</font> compare <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ9</font>;
