The name "Hod" is derived from the Hebrew word "הוֹד" (hôd), which can mean "splendor," "majesty," or "glory." In the context of biblical names, it often signifies a person or entity associated with honor or grandeur. Biblical References: Hod is mentioned in the genealogical records of the tribe of Asher. In <a href="/1_chronicles/7-37.htm">1 Chronicles 7:37</a>, the Berean Standard Bible lists Hod as one of the descendants of Asher: "Bezer, Hod, Shamma, Shilshah, Ithran, and Beera." This passage is part of a larger genealogical account that traces the lineage and tribal affiliations of the Israelites, emphasizing the importance of family heritage and tribal identity in ancient Israel. Tribal Significance: The tribe of Asher, to which Hod belongs, is one of the twelve tribes of Israel, descended from Asher, the eighth son of Jacob and Zilpah, Leah's maidservant. Asher's descendants were known for their prosperity and abundance, as reflected in Jacob's blessing in <a href="/genesis/49-20.htm">Genesis 49:20</a> : "Asher’s food will be rich; he will provide royal delicacies." The mention of Hod within this tribe underscores the continuity and expansion of Asher's lineage. Theological Implications: In a broader theological context, the name Hod, meaning "splendor" or "glory," can be seen as a reflection of God's majesty and the honor bestowed upon His people. The genealogies in the Bible, including the mention of individuals like Hod, serve to demonstrate God's faithfulness in fulfilling His promises to the patriarchs by preserving their descendants and establishing them as a nation. Cultural and Historical Context: Genealogies in the Bible, such as the one including Hod, were crucial for maintaining tribal identity and inheritance rights. They provided a sense of continuity and connection to the past, reinforcing the Israelites' understanding of their place within God's covenantal plan. The tribe of Asher, located in the fertile regions of northern Israel, played a significant role in the agricultural and economic life of the nation. Symbolic Interpretation: While Hod is primarily a genealogical reference, the symbolic meaning of the name can be appreciated in the context of biblical themes of glory and honor. The use of such names in Scripture often points to the attributes of God or the desired characteristics of His people. In this way, Hod can be seen as a reminder of the divine splendor that believers are called to reflect in their lives. Conclusion: The entry for Hod in the Bible, though brief, contributes to the rich tapestry of Israel's history and the unfolding narrative of God's relationship with His people. Through genealogical records, the Bible emphasizes the importance of lineage, identity, and the fulfillment of divine promises, with each name carrying its own significance and account within the larger biblical framework.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div>Hodpraise; confession<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div>Hod(splendor), one of the sons of Zophah, among the descendants of Asher.
