# Eldaah: A Minor Genealogical Name Eldaah appears in the Hebrew Bible only twice, identifying it as a relatively obscure proper noun rather than a common word with semantic range. Based on the lexicon data provided, Eldaah functions as a personal name within biblical genealogies. The name itself does not carry a defined meaning in the supplied entry—only its transliteration and classification as a noun are documented—suggesting it operated primarily as a genealogical marker rather than a term laden with semantic significance. The extreme rarity of this name (appearing in just two biblical passages) indicates its limited narrative importance. Without additional contextual information from the lexicon entry regarding those specific occurrences, we can only confirm that Eldaah represents an individual or lineage name preserved in the biblical record. Such sparse attestation typically characterizes peripheral genealogical figures—those included for completeness of family trees rather than for their role in major biblical events or theological development.
