🗺 Places mentioned alongside Nadab on the map →

Nadab is mentioned in 1Ch.8.30 and 1Ch.9.36 as one of the sons of Abiel, a descendant of Benjamin. These references appear in genealogical records that trace the lineage of the tribe of Benjamin, providing insight into the family lines within the tribe.

In both passages, Nadab is listed alongside his brothers Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Gedor, Ahio, Zechariah, and Mikloth as the sons of Abiel (1Ch.8.30; 9.36). Abiel, also known as Jeiel, is identified as the father of this family and is described as living in Gibeon, a city within the territory of Benjamin (1Ch.9.35). The repetition of Nadab's name in both 1Chronicles 8 and 9 reinforces the significance of these genealogical records in the chronicler's account of Israel's history.
