The name is often understood to mean "love" or "affection." Medad is one of the two men who prophesied in the camp of Israel during the wilderness journey, as recorded in the Book of Numbers.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the context of ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes reflective of personal characteristics or divine purposes. Medad, along with Eldad, is noted for receiving the Spirit of God and prophesying, even though they were not present at the tent of meeting with the other elders. This event underscores the theme of God's sovereignty and the distribution of His Spirit beyond human expectations or limitations.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/hebrew/3039.htm">yadid</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>an Isr.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Medad (2).<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">מֵידָד</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> one who (with <font class="hebrew2">אֶלְדָּד</font>) prophesied in the camp of Israel <a href="/interlinear/numbers/11-26.htm">Numbers 11:26</a>,27 (JE), <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Μωδαδ</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>Medad <p>From <a href="/hebrew/3032.htm">yadad</a> in the sense of loving;
