It is a compound name that reflects a theophoric element, indicating a relationship or attribute of Yahweh.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes used to express the faith or circumstances of the individual or their family. The use of the name "Adoniyahuw" suggests a recognition of Yahweh's lordship, which was a central tenet of Israelite religion. The addition of "Towb" emphasizes the goodness or favor associated with Yahweh.<div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">טוֺב אֲדוֺנִיָּה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> (<em>good is my Lord</em>, <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">י</font>) — <font class="hebrew2">וַאֲדֹנִיָּהוּ וְטוֺבִיָּהוּ וְטוֺב אֲדוֺנִיָּה</font> in list of Levites assigned to reign of Jehoshaphat 2Chronicles 17:8, but text suspicious; <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font><sup>L</sup> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">τωβαδωνια</font>, but <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> only <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">τωβαδωβεια</font> for all three names. <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>Tob-adonijah <p>From <a href="/hebrew/2896.htm">towb</a> and <a href="/hebrew/138.htm">'Adoniyah</a>; pleasing (to) Adonijah; Tob-Adonijah, an Israelite -- Tob-adonijah. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/2896.htm">towb</a> <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/138.htm">'Adoniyah</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>אֲדוֹנִיָּ֖ה אדוניה ’ă·ḏō·w·nî·yāh ’ăḏōwnîyāh adoniYah<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/2_chronicles/17-8.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">2 Chronicles 17:8</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/2_chronicles/17.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">וְטֽוֹבִיָּ֛הוּ וְט֥וֹב <b> אֲדוֹנִיָּ֖ה </b> הַלְוִיִּ֑ם וְעִמָּהֶ֛ם</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/2_chronicles/17.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> Tobijah <span class="itali">and Tobadonijah,</span> the Levites;<br><a href="/kjvs/2_chronicles/17.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> and Tobijah, <span class="itali">and Tobadonijah,</span> Levites;<br><a href="/interlinear/2_chronicles/17-8.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> Adonijah Tobijah <span class="itali">and Tobadonijah</span> the Levites them<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_2899.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_2899.htm">Strong's Hebrew 2899<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/adoniyah_2899.htm">’ă·ḏō·w·nî·yāh — 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/2898.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="2898"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="2898" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/2899a.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="2899a"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="2899a" /></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>
