Ichabod

Meaning: where is the glory? or · Male · 1 cross reference

This Ichabod entry refers to a relative in Eli's priestly line mentioned in 1 Samuel 14, not directly to the newborn child of 1 Samuel 4. The page should be read within the genealogical memory of that troubled priestly house. First appears in 1 Sam 14:3.1

AI summary: This Ichabod matters because his single cross reference keeps alive the remembered line of Eli's house in a context still shadowed by earlier judgment. Even a brief genealogical notice can carry the weight of a family history marked by loss of honor and glory. Taken together, the material presents this Ichabod as a figure within the troubled memory of Eli's line.1
