ELADA
- E>@ - (whom God has put on), a descendant of Ephraim through Shuthelah. ( kjv@1Chronicles:7:20)
ELAH
- E>@ - (an oak, strength). The son and successor of Baasha king of Israel. (Kings:16:8-10) His reign laster for little more than a year; comp. ver. 8 with 10. (B.C. 928-7.) He was killed while drunk, by Zimri, in the house of his steward Azra, who was probably a confederate in the plot. Father of Hoshea, the last king of Israel. ( kjv@2Kings:15:30 kjv@2Kings:17:1) (B.C. 729 or before.).
ELAH
- E>@ - One of the dukes of Edom. kjv@Genesis:36:41; kjv@1Chronicles:1:52) Shimei ben
- Elah was Solomon’s commissariat officer in Benjamin. (Kings:4:18) (B.C. 1013.) A son of Caleb the son of Jephuneh. ( kjv@1Chronicles:4:15) (B.C. 1450.) Son of Uzzi, a Benjamite, ( kjv@1Chronicles:9:8) s, and one of the chiefs of the tribe at the settlement of the country. (B.C. 536.)
ELAH, THE VALLEY OF
- E>@ - (valley of the terebinth), the valley in which David killed Goliath. ( kjv@1Samuel:17:2 kjv@1Samuel:17:19) It lay somewhere near Socoh of Judah and Azekah, and was nearer Ekron than any other Philistine town. kjv@1Samuel:17.
ELAM
- E>@ - (eternity). This seems to have been originally the name of a man, the son of Shem. kjv@Genesis:10:22; kjv@1Chronicles:1:17) Commonly, however, it is used as the appellation of a country. kjv@Genesis:14:1 kjv@Genesis:14:9 kjv@Isaiah:11:11 kjv@Isaiah:21:2) The Elam of Scripture appears to be the province lying south of Assyria and east of Persia proper, to which Herodotus gives the name of Cissia (iii. 91, kjv@5:49, etc.), and which is termed Susis or Susiana by the geographers. Its capital was Susa. This country was originally people by descendants of Shem. By the time of Abraham a very important power had been built up in the same region. It is plain that at this early time the predominant power in lower Mesopotamia was Elam, which for a while held the place possessed earlier by Babylon, kjv@Genesis:10:10) and later by either Babylon or Assyria. A Korhite Levite in the time of King David. ( kjv@1Chronicles:26:3) (B.C. 1014.) A chief man of the tribe of Benjamin. ( kjv@1Chronicles:8:24) "Children of Elam," to the number of 1254, returned with Zerubbabel from Babylon. kjv@Ezra:2:7; kjv@Nehemiah:7:12) 1Esd. kjv@5:12. (B.C. 536 or before.) Elam occurs amongst the names of the chief of the people who signed the covenant with Nehemiah. kjv@Nehemiah:10:14) In the same lists is a second Elam, whose sons, to the same number as in the former case, returned with Zerubbabel, kjv@Ezra:2:31; kjv@Nehemiah:7:34) and which for the sake of distinction is called "the other Elam." One of the priests who accompanied Nehemiah at the dedication of the new wall of Jerusalem. kjv@Nehemiah:12:42)
ELAMITES
- E>@ - This word is found only in kjv@Ezra:4:9) The Elamites were the original inhabitants of the country called Elam; they were descendants of Shem, and perhaps drew their name from an actual man Elam. kjv@Genesis:10:22)
ELASAH
- E>@ - (whom God made). A priest in the time of Ezra who had married a Gentile wife. kjv@Ezra:10:22) (B.C. 458). Son of Shaphan, one of the two men who were sent on a mission by King Zedekiah to Nebuchadnezzar at Babylon. kjv@Jeremiah:29:3) (B.C. 594.)
ELATH, ELOTH
- E>@ - (a grove), the name of a town of the land of Edom, commonly mentioned with Ezion-geber, and situated at the head of the Arabian Gulf, which was thence called the Elanitic Gulf. It first occurs in the account of the wanderings, (2:8) and in later times must have come under the rule of David. (2 Samuel kjv@8:14) We find the place named again in connection with Solomon’s navy. (Kings:9:26) comp. kjv@2Chronicals:8:17 In the Roman period it became a frontier town of the south and the residence of a Christian bishop. The Arabic name is Eyleh , and palm groves still exist there, after which it was named.
ELBETHEL
- E>@ - (the God of Bethel), the name which Jacob is said to have bestowed on the place at which God appeared to him when he was flying from Esau. kjv@Genesis:35:7)
ELDAAH
- E>@ - kjv@Genesis:25:4; kjv@1Chronicles:1:3) the last in order of the sons of Midian.
ELDAD
- E>@ - (favored of God) and Me’dad (love), two of the seventy elders to whom was communicated the prophetic power of Moses. kjv@Numbers:11:16 kjv@Numbers:11:26) (B.C. 1490.) Although their names were upon the last which Moses had drawn up, kjv@Numbers:11:26) they did not repair with the rest of their brethren to the tabernacle, but continued to prophesy in the camp. moses, being requested by Joshua to forbid this, refused to do so, and expressed a wish that the gift of prophecy might be diffused throughout the people.
ELDER
- E>@ - The term elder, or old man as the Hebrew literally imports, was one of extensive use, as an official title, among the Hebrews and the surrounding nations, because the heads of tribes and the leading people who had acquired influence were naturally the older people of the nation. It had reference to various offices. kjv@Genesis:24:2 kjv@Genesis:50:7; 2 Samuel 12:17; kjv@Ezekiel:27:9) As betokening a political office, it applied not only to the Hebrews, but also to the Egyptians, kjv@Genesis:50:7) the Moabites and the Midianites. kjv@Numbers:22:7) The earliest notice of the elders acting in concert as a political body is at the time of the Exodus. They were the representatives of the people, so much so that elders and people are occasionally used as equivalent terms; comp. kjv@Joshua:24:1) with kjv@Joshua:24:2 kjv@Joshua:24:19-21) and ( kjv@1Samuel:8:4) with ( kjv@1Samuel:8:7 kjv@1Samuel:8:10,19) Their authority was undefined, and extended to all matters concerning the public weal. Their number and influence may be inferred from ( kjv@1Samuel:30:26)ff. They retained their position under all the political changes which the Jews underwent. The seventy elders mentioned in Exodus and Numbers were a sort of governing body, a parliament, and the origin of the tribunal of seventy elders called the Sanhedrin or Council. In the New Testament Church the elders or presbyters were the same as the bishops. It was an office derived from the Jewish usage of elders or rulers of the synagogues. BISHOP
ELEAD
- E>@ - (praised by God), a descendant of Ephraim. ( kjv@1Chronicles:7:21)
ELEALEH
- E>@ - (the ascending of God), a place on the east of Jordan, taken possession of and rebuilt by the tribe of Reuben. kjv@Numbers:32:3 kjv@Numbers:32:37) By Isaiah and Jeremiah it is mentioned as a Moabite town. kjv@Isaiah:15:4 kjv@Isaiah:16:9; kjv@Jeremiah:48:34)
ELEASAH
- E>@ - (whom God made). Son of Helez, one of the descendants of Judah, of the family of Hezron. ( kjv@1Chronicles:2:39) (B.C. after 1046.) Son of Rapha or Rephaiah; a descendant of Saul through Jonathan and Merib-baal or Mephibosheth. ( 1Chronicles:8;37; kjv@9:43) (B.C. before 588.)
ELEAZAR
- E>@ - (help of God). Third son of Aaron. After the death of Nadab and Abihu without children, kjv@Leviticus:10:6; kjv@Numbers:3:4) Eleazar was appointed chief over the principal Levites. kjv@Numbers:3:32) With his brother Ithamar he ministered as a priest during their father’s lifetime, and immediately before his death was invested on Mount Hor with the sacred garments, as the successor of Aaron in the office of high priest. kjv@Numbers:20:28) (B.C. 1452.) One of his first duties was in conjunction with Moses to superintend the census of the people. kjv@Numbers:26:3) After the conquest of Canaan by Joshua he took part in the distribution of the land. kjv@Joshua:14:1) The time of his death is not mentioned in Scripture.

ELI
- E>@ - (ascension), a descendant of Aaron through Ithamar, the youngest of his two surviving sons. kjv@Leviticus:10:1-2 kjv@Leviticus:10:12) comp. 1Kin 2:27 with 2Sam kjv@8:17; 1Chr 24:3 (B.C. 1214-1116.) he was the first of the line of Ithamar who held the office of high priest. The office remained in his family till Abiathar was thrust out by Solomon, (Kings:1:7; kjv@2:26-27) when it passed back again to the family of Eleazar int he person of Zadok. (Kings:2:35) Its return to the elder branch was one part of the punishment which had been denounced against Eli during his lifetime, for his culpable negligence. ( kjv@1Samuel:2:22-25) when his sons profaned the priesthood; comp. ( kjv@1Samuel:2:27-36) with 1Kin 2:27 Notwithstanding this one great blemish, the character of Eli is marked by eminent piety, as shown by his meek submission to the divine judgment, ( kjv@1Samuel:3:18) and his supreme regard for the ark of God. ( kjv@1Samuel:4:18) In addition to the office of high priest he held that of judge. He died at the advanced age of 98 years, ( kjv@1Samuel:4:18) In addition to the office of high priest he held that of judge.

ELIJAH
- E>@ - (my God is Jehovah) has been well entitled "the grandest and the most romantic character that Israel ever produced." "Elijah the Tishbite,... of the inhabitants of Gilead" is literally all that is given us to know of his parentage and locality. Of his appearance as he "stood before" Ahab (B.C. 910) with the suddenness of motion to this day characteristic of the Bedouins from his native hills, we can perhaps realize something from the touches, few but strong, of the narrative. His chief characteristic was his hair, long and thick, and hanging down his back. His ordinary clothing consisted of a girdle of skin round his loins, which he tightened when about to move quickly. (Kings:18:46) But in addition to this he occasionally wore the "mantle" or cape of sheepskin which has supplied us with one of our most familiar figures of speech. His introduction, in what we may call the first act of his life, is the most startling description. He suddenly appears before Ahab, prophesies a three-years drought in Israel, and proclaims the vengeance of Jehovah for the apostasy of the king. Obliged to flee from the vengeance of king, or more probably of the queen (comp. (Kings:19:2) he was directed to the brook Cherith. There in the hollow of the torrent bed he remained, supported in the miraculous manner with which we are all familiar, till the failing of the brook obliged him to forsake it. His next refuge was at Zarephath. Here in the house of the widow woman Elijah performed the miracles of prolonging the oil and the meal, and restored the son of the widow to life after his apparent death. 1Kin 17. In this or some other retreat an interval of more than two years must have elapsed. The drought continued, and at last the full horrors of famine, caused by the failure of the crops, descended on Samaria. Again Elijah suddenly appears before Ahab. There are few more sublime stories in history than the account of the succeeding events
with the servant of Jehovah and his single attendant on the one hand, and the 850 prophets of Baal on the other; the altars, the descending fire of Jehovah consuming both sacrifice and altar; the rising storm, and the ride across the plain to Jezreel. 1Kin 18. Jezebel vows vengeance, and again Elijah takes refuge in flight into the wilderness, where he is again miraculously fed, and goes forward, in the strength of that food, a journey of forty days to the mount of God, even to Horeb, where he takes refuge in a cave, and witnesses a remarkable vision of Jehovah. (Kings:19:9-18) He receives the divine communication, and sets forth in search of Elisha, whom he finds ploughing in the field, and anoints him prophet in his place. ch. 19. For a time little is heard of Elijah, and Ahab and Jezebel probably believed they had seen the last of him. But after the murder of Naboth, Elijah, who had received an intimation from Jehovah of what was taking place, again suddenly appears before the king, and then follow Elijah’s fearful denunciation of Ahab and Jezebel, which may possibly be recovered by putting together the words recalled by Jehu, ( kjv@2Kings:9:26 kjv@2Kings:9:36-37) and those given in (Kings:21:19-25) A space of three or four years now elapses (comp. (Kings:22:1,51; kjv@2Kings:1:17) before we again catch a glimpse of Elijah. Ahaziah is on his death-bed, (Kings:22:51; kjv@2Kings:1:1-2) and sends to an oracle or shrine of Baal to ascertain the issue of his illness; but Elijah suddenly appears on the path of the messengers, without preface or inquiry utters his message of death, and as rapidly disappears. The wrathful king sends two bands of soldiers to seize Elijah, and they are consumed with fire; but finally the prophet goes down and delivers to Ahaziah’s face the message of death. No long after Elijah sent a message to Jehoram denouncing his evil doings, and predicting his death. ( kjv@2Chronicles:21:12-15) It was at Gilgal
probably on the western edge of the hills of Ephraim
that the prophet received the divine intimation that his departure was at hand. He was at the time with Elisha, who seems now to have become his constant companion, and who would not consent to leave him. "And it came to pass as they still went on and talked, that, behold, a chariot of fire and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven." (B.C. 896.) Fifty men of the sons of the prophets ascended the abrupt heights behind the town, and witnessed the scene. How deep was the impression which he made on the mind of the nation may be judged of from the fixed belief which many centuries after prevailed that Elijah would again appear for the relief and restoration of his country, as Malachi prophesied. kjv@Malachi:4:5) He spoke, but left no written words, save the letter to Jehoram king of Judah. ( kjv@2Chronicles:21:12-15)
ELIKA
- E>@ - (rejected of God), a Harodite, one of David’s guard. (2 Samuel 23:25)
ELIM
- E>@ - (strong trees), kjv@Exodus:15:27; kjv@Numbers:33:9) the second station where the Israelites encamped after crossing the Red Sea. It is distinguished as having had "twelve wells (rather ’fountains’) of waster, and three-score and ten palm trees." It is generally identified by the best authorities with Wady Garundel , about halfway down the shore of the Gulf of Suez. A few palm trees still remain, and the water is excellent.
ELIMELECH
- E>@ - (my God is king), a man of the tribe of Judah and of the family of the Hezronites, who dwelt in Bethlehem
- Ephratah in the days of the Judges. (B.C. 1312.) In consequence of a great death in the land he went with his wife, Naomi, and his two sons, Mahlon and Chilion, to dwell in Moab, where he and his sons died without posterity. kjv@Ruth:1:2-3) etc.
ELIOENAI
- E>@ - (my eyes are toward the Lord). Elsest son of Neariah, the son of Shemaiah. ( kjv@1Chronicles:3:23-24) Head of a family of the Simeonites. ( kjv@1Chronicles:4:36) (B.C. after 1451.) Head of one of the families of the sons of Becher, the son of Benjamin. ( kjv@1Chronicles:7:8) A Korhite Levite, and one of the doorkeepers of the "house of Jehovah."

He is called "the Temanite;" hence it is naturally inferred that he was a descendant of Teman. On him falls the main burden of the argument, that God’s retribution in this world is perfect and certain, and that consequently suffering must be a proof of previous sin. Job:4-5,15,22. The great truth brought out by him is the unapproachable majesty and purity of God. kjv@Job:4:12-21 kjv@Job:15:12-16) JOB, JOB, BOOK OF

ELISEUS
- E>@ - the Greek form of the name Elisha.
ELISHA
- E>@ - (God his salvation), son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah; the attendant and disciple of Elijan, and subsequently his successor as prophet of the kingdom of Israel. The earliest mention of his name is in the command to Elijah in the cave at Horeb. (Kings:19:16-17) (B.C. about 900.) Elijah sets forth to obey the command, and comes upon his successor engaged in ploughing. He crosses to him and throws over his shoulders the rough mantle
a token at once of investiture with the prophet’s office and of adoption as a son. Elisha delayed merely to give the farewell kiss to his father and mother and preside at a parting feast with his people, and then followed the great prophet on his northward road. We hear nothing more of Elisha for eight years, until the translation of his master, when he reappears, to become the most prominent figure in the history of his country during the rest of his long life. In almost every respect Elisha presents the most complete contrast to Elijah. Elijah was a true Bedouin child of the desert. If he enters a city it is only to deliver his message of fire and be gone. Elisha, on the other hand, is a civilized man, an inhabitant of cities. His dress was the ordinary garment of an Israelite, the beged , probably similar in form to the long abbeyeh of the modern Syrians. ( kjv@2Kings:2:12) His hair was worn trimmed behind, in contrast to the disordered locks of Elijah, and he used a walking-staff, ( kjv@2Kings:4:29) of the kind ordinarily carried by grave or aged citizens. kjv@Zechariah:8:4) After the departure of his master, Elisha returned to dwell at Jericho, ( kjv@2Kings:2:18) where he miraculously purified the springs. We next meet with Elisha at Bethel, in the heart of the country, on his way from Jericho to Mount Carmel. ( kjv@2Kings:2:23) The mocking children, Elisha’s curse and the catastrophe which followed are familiar to all. Later he extricates Jehoram king of Israel, and the kings of Judah and Edom, from their difficulty in the campaign against Moab arising from want of water. ( kjv@2Kings:3:4-27) Then he multiplies the widow’s oil. ( kjv@2Kings:4:5) The next occurrence is at Shunem, where he is hospitably entertained by a woman of substance, whose son dies, and is brought to life again by Elisha. ( kjv@2Kings:4:8-37) Then at Gilgal he purifies the deadly pottage, ( kjv@2Kings:4:38-41) and multiplies the loaves. ( kjv@2Kings:4:42-44) The simple records of these domestic incidents amongst the sons of the prophets are now interrupted by an occurrence of a more important character. ( kjv@2Kings:5:1-27) The chief captain of the army of Syria, Naaman, is attacked with leprosy, and is sent by an Israelite maid to the prophet Elisha, who directs him to dip seven times in the Jordan, which he does and is healed, ( kjv@2Kings:5:1-14) while Naaman’s servant, Gehazi, he strikes with leprosy for his unfaithfulness. ch. ( kjv@2Kings:5:20-27) Again the scene changes. It is probably at Jericho that Elisha causes the iron axe to swim. ( kjv@2Kings:6:1-7) A band of Syrian marauders are sent to seize him, but are struck blind, and he misleads them to Samaria, where they find themselves int he presence of the Israelite king and his troops. ( kjv@2Kings:6:8-23) During the famine in Samaria, ( kjv@2Kings:6:24-33) he prophesied incredible plenty, ch. ( kjv@2Kings:7:1-2) which was soon fulfilled. ch. ( kjv@2Kings:7:3-20) We next find the prophet at Damascus. Benhadad the king is sick, and sends to Elisha by Hazael to know the result. Elisha prophesies the king’s death, and announces to Hazael that he is to succeed to the throne. ( kjv@2Kings:8:7 kjv@2Kings:8:15) Finally this prophet of God, after having filled the position for sixty years, is found on his death-bed in his own house. ( kjv@2Kings:13:14-19) The power of the prophet, however, does not terminate with his death. Even in the tomb he restores the dead to life. ch. ( kjv@2Kings:13:21)

(1.) Valley of, where the Israelites were encamped when David killed Goliath ( kjv@1Samuel:17:2 kjv@1Samuel:17:19). It was near Shochoh of Judah and Azekah (17:1). It is the modern Wady es
- Sunt, i.e., "valley of the acacia." "The terebinths from which the valley of Elah takes its name still cling to their ancient soil. On the west side of the valley, near Shochoh, there is a very large and ancient tree of this kind known as the 'terebinth of Wady Sur,' 55 feet in height, its trunk 17 feet in circumference, and the breadth of its shade no less than 75 feet. It marks the upper end of the Elah valley, and forms a noted object, being one of the largest terebinths in Palestine." Geikie's, The Holy Land, etc.
(2.) One of the Edomite chiefs or "dukes" of Mount Seir kjv@Genesis:36:41).
(3.) The second of the three sons of Caleb, the son of Jephunneh ( kjv@1Chronicles:4:15).
(4.) The son and successor of Baasha, king of Israel (kjvKings:16:8-10). He was killed while drunk by Zimri, one of the captains of his chariots, and was the last king of the line of Baasha. Thus was fullfilled the prophecy of Jehu (6, 7, 11-14).
(5.) The father of Hoshea, the last king of Israel ( kjv@2Kings:15:30 kjv@2Kings:17:1).
Elam @ highland, the son of Shem kjv@Genesis:10:22), and the name of the country inhabited by his descendants (14:1,9; kjv@Isaiah:11:11 kjv@Isaiah:21:2, etc.) lying to the east of Babylonia, and extending to the shore of the Mediterranean, a distance in a direct line of about 1,000 miles. The name Elam is an Assyrian word meaning "high." "The inhabitants of Elam, or 'the Highlands,' to the east of Babylon, were called Elamites. They were divided into several branches, speaking different dialects of the same agglutinative language. The race to which they belonged was brachycephalic, or short-headed, like the pre
- Semitic Sumerians of Babylonia. "The earliest Elamite kingdom seems to have been that of Anzan, the exact site of which is uncertain; but in the time of Abraham, Shushan or Susa appears to have already become the capital of the country. Babylonia was frequently invaded by the Elamite kings, who at times asserted their supremacy over it (as in the case of Chedorlaomer, the Kudur
- Lagamar, or 'servant of the goddess Lagamar,' of the cuneiform texts). "The later Assyrian monarchs made several campaigns against Elam, and finally Assur-bani-pal (about B.C. 650) succeeded in conquering the country, which was ravaged with fire and sword. On the fall of the Assyrian Empire, Elam passed into the hands of the Persians" (A.H. Sayce). This country was called by the Greeks Cissia or Susiana.
Elasah @ God made.
(1.) One of the descendants of Judah, of the family of Hezron ( kjv@1Chronicles:2:39, "Eleasah").
(2.) A descendant of king Saul ( kjv@1Chronicles:8:37 kjv@1Chronicles:9:43).
(3.) The son of Shaphan, one of the two who were sent by Zedekiah to Nebuchadnezzar, and also took charge of Jeremiah's letter to the captives in Babylon kjv@Jeremiah:29:3).
Elath @ grove; trees, kjv@Deuteronomy:2:8), also in plural form Eloth (kjvKings:9:26, etc.); called by the Greeks and Romans Elana; a city of Idumea, on the east, i.e., the Elanitic, gulf, or the Gulf of Akabah, of the Red Sea. It is first mentioned in kjv@Deuteronomy:2:8. It is also mentioned along with Ezion-geber in kjvKings:9:26. It was within the limits of Solomon's dominion, but afterwards revolted. It was, however, recovered and held for a time under king Uzziah ( kjv@2Kings:14:22). Now the ruin Aila.
Eldad @ whom God has loved, one of the seventy elders whom Moses appointed kjv@Numbers:11:26-27) to administer justice among the people. He, with Medad, prophesied in the camp instead of going with the rest to the tabernacle, as Moses had commanded. This incident was announced to Moses by Joshua, who thought their conduct in this respect irregular. Moses replied, "Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the Lord's people were prophets" kjv@Numbers:11:24-30; comp. kjv@Mark:9:38; kjv@Luke:9:49).
Elder @ a name frequently used in the Old Testament as denoting a person clothed with authority, and entitled to respect and reverence kjv@Genesis:50:7). It also denoted a political office kjv@Numbers:22:7). The "elders of Israel" held a rank among the people indicative of authority. Moses opened his commission to them kjv@Exodus:3:16). They attended Moses on all important occasions. Seventy of them attended on him at the giving of the law kjv@Exodus:24:1). Seventy also were selected from the whole number to bear with Moses the burden of the people kjv@Numbers:11:16-17). The "elder" is the keystone of the social and political fabric wherever the patriarchal system exists. At the present day this is the case among the Arabs, where the sheik (i.e., "the old man") is the highest authority in the tribe. The body of the "elders" of Israel were the representatives of the people from the very first, and were recognized as such by Moses. All down through the history of the Jews we find mention made of the elders as exercising authority among the people. They appear as governors kjv@Deuteronomy:31:28), as local magistrates (16:18), administering justice (19:12). They were men of extensive influence ( kjv@1Samuel:30:26-31). In New Testament times they also appear taking an active part in public affairs kjv@Matthew:16:21 kjv@Matthew:21:23 kjv@Matthew:26:59 ). The Jewish eldership was transferred from the old dispensation to the new. "The creation of the office of elder is nowhere recorded in the New Testament, as in the case of deacons and apostles, because the latter offices were created to meet new and special emergencies, while the former was transmitted from the earlies times. In other words, the office of elder was the only permanent essential office of the church under either dispensation." The "elders" of the New Testament church were the "pastors" kjv@Ephesians:4:11), "bishops or overseers" kjv@Acts:20:28), "leaders" and "rulers" kjv@Hebrews:13:7; kjv@1Thessalonians:5:12) of the flock. Everywhere in the New Testament bishop and presbyter are titles given to one and the same officer of the Christian church. He who is called presbyter or elder on account of his age or gravity is also called bishop or overseer with reference to the duty that lay upon him kjv@Titus:1:5-7; kjv@Acts:20:17-28; kjv@Philippians:1:1).
Elealeh @ God has ascended, a place in the pastoral country east of Jordan, in the tribe of Reuben kjv@Numbers:32:3 kjv@Numbers:32:37). It is not again mentioned till the time of Isaiah (15:4; 16:9) and Jeremiah (48:34). It is now an extensive ruin called el
- A'al, about one mile north-east of Heshbon.
Eleazar @ God has helped.
(1.) The third son of Aaron kjv@Exodus:6:23). His wife, a daughter of Putiel, bore him Phinehas kjv@Exodus:6:25). After the death of Nadab and Abihu kjv@Leviticus:10:12; kjv@Numbers:3:4) he was appointed to the charge of the sanctuary kjv@Numbers:3:32). On Mount Hor he was clothed with the sacred vestments, which Moses took from off his brother Aaron and put upon him as successor to his father in the high priest's office, which he held for more than twenty years kjv@Numbers:20:25-29). He took part with Moses in numbering the people (26:3-4), and assisted at the inauguration of Joshua. He assisted in the distribution of the land after the conquest kjv@Joshua:14:1). The high-priesthood remained in his family till the time of Eli, into whose family it passed, till it was restored to the family of Eleazar in the person of Zadok ( kjv@1Samuel:2:35; comp. kjvKings:2:27). "And Eleazar the son of Aaron died; and they buried him in a hill that pertained to Phinehas his son" kjv@Joshua:24:33). The word here rendered "hill" is Gibeah, the name of several towns in Palestine which were generally on or near a hill. The words may be more suitably rendered, "They buried him in Gibeah of Phinehas", i.e., in the city of Phinehas, which has been identified, in accordance with Jewish and Samaritan traditions, with Kefr Ghuweirah='Awertah, about 7 miles north of Shiloh, and a few miles south-east of Nablus. "His tomb is still shown there, overshadowed by venerable terebinths." Others, however, have identified it with the village of Gaba or Gebena of Eusebius, the modern Khurbet Jibia, 5 miles north of Guphna towards Nablus.
(2.) An inhabitant of Kirjath-jearim who was "sanctified" to take charge of the ark, although not allowed to touch it, while it remained in the house of his father Abinadab ( kjv@1Samuel:7:1-2; comp. kjv@Numbers:3:31 kjv@Numbers:4:15).
(3.) The son of Dodo the Ahohite, of the tribe of Benjamin, one of the three most eminent of David's thirty-seven heroes ( kjv@1Chronicles:11:12) who broke through the Philistine host and brought him water from the well of Bethlehem ( kjv@2Samuel:23:9 kjv@2Samuel:23:16).
(4.) A son of Phinehas associated with the priests in taking charge of the sacred vessels brought back to Jerusalem after the Exile kjv@Ezra:8:33).
(5.) A Levite of the family of Merari ( kjv@1Chronicles:23:21-22).
Elect lady @ to whom the Second Epistle of John is addressed ( kjv@2John:1:1). Some think that the word rendered "lady" is a proper name, and thus that the expression should be "elect Kyria."
Election of Grace @ The Scripture speaks
(1) of the election of individuals to office or to honour and privilege, e.g., Abraham, Jacob, Saul, David, Solomon, were all chosen by God for the positions they held; so also were the apostles.
(2) There is also an election of nations to special privileges, e.g., the Hebrews kjv@Deuteronomy:7:6; kjv@Romans:9:4).
(3) But in addition there is an election of individuals to eternal life ( kjv@2Thessalonians:2:13; kjv@Ephesians:1:4; kjv@1Peter:1:2; kjv@John:13:18). The ground of this election to salvation is the good pleasure of God kjv@Ephesians:1:5 kjv@Ephesians:1:11 kjv@Matthew:11:25-26; kjv@John:15:16 kjv@John:15:19). God claims the right so to do kjv@Romans:9:16 kjv@Romans:9:21). It is not conditioned on faith or repentance, but is of soverign grace kjv@Romans:11:4-6; kjv@Ephesians:1:3-6). All that pertain to salvation, the means kjv@Ephesians:2:8; kjv@2Thessalonians:2:13) as well as the end, are of God kjv@Acts:5:31; kjv@2Timothy:2:25; kjv@1Corinthians:1:30; kjv@Ephesians:2:5 kjv@Ephesians:2:10). Faith and repentance and all other graces are the exercises of a regenerated soul; and regeneration is God's work, a "new creature." Men are elected "to salvation," "to the adoption of sons," "to be holy and without blame before him in love" ( kjv@2Thessalonians:2:13; kjv@Galatians:4:4-5; kjv@Ephesians:1:4). The ultimate end of election is the praise of God's grace kjv@Ephesians:1:6 kjv@Ephesians:1:12). (
See PREDESTINATION
Elements @ In its primary sense, as denoting the first principles or constituents of things, it is used in kjv@2Peter:3:10: "The elements shall be dissolved." In a secondary sense it denotes the first principles of any art or science. In this sense it is used in kjv@Galatians:4:3 kjv@Galatians:4:9 kjv@Colossians:2:8 kjv@Colossians:2:20, where the expressions, "elements of the world," "week and beggarly elements," denote that state of religious knowledge existing among the Jews before the coming of Christ, the rudiments of religious teaching. They are "of the world," because they are made up of types which appeal to the senses. They are "weak," because insufficient; and "beggarly," or "poor," because they are dry and barren, not being accompanied by an outpouring of spiritual gifts and graces, as the gospel is.
Elephant @ not found in Scripture except indirectly in the original Greek word (elephantinos) translated "of ivory" in kjv@Revelation:18:12, and in the Hebrew word (shenhabim, meaning "elephant's tooth") rendered "ivory" in kjvKings:10:22 and kjv@2Chronicals:9:21.
Elhanan @ whom God has graciously bestowed.
(1.) A warrior of the time of David famed for his exploits. In the Authorized Version ( kjv@2Samuel:21:19) it is recorded that "Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim, a Bethlehemite, slew the brother of Goliath." The Revised Version here rightly omits the words "the brother of." They were introduced in the Authorized Version to bring this passage into agreement with kjv@1Chronicles:20:5, where it is said that he "slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath." Goliath the Gittite was killed by David ( 1Samuel:17). The exploit of Elhanan took place late in David's reign.
(2.) The son of Dodo, and one of David's warriors ( kjv@2Samuel:23:24).
Eli @ ascent, the high priest when the ark was at Shiloh ( kjv@1Samuel:1:3 kjv@1Samuel:1:9). He was the first of the line of Ithamar, Aaron's fourth son ( kjv@1Chronicles:24:3; comp. kjv@2Samuel:8:17), who held that office. The office remained in his family till the time of Abiathar (kjvKings:2:26-27), whom Solomon deposed, and appointed Zadok, of the family of Eleazar, in his stead
(35). He acted also as a civil judge in Israel after the death of Samson ( kjv@1Samuel:4:18), and judged Israel for forty years. His sons Hophni and Phinehas grossly misconducted themselves, to the great disgust of the people ( kjv@1Samuel:2:27-36). They were licentious reprobates. He failed to reprove them so sternly as he ought to have done, and so brought upon his house the judgment of God (2:22-33; 3:18). The Israelites proclaimed war against the Philistines, whose army was encamped at Aphek. The battle, fought a short way beyond Mizpeh, ended in the total defeat of Israel. Four thousand of them fell in "battle array". They now sought safety in having the "ark of the covenant of the Lord" among them. They fetched it from Shiloh, and Hophni and Phinehas accompanied it. This was the first time since the settlement of Israel in Canaan that the ark had been removed from the sanctuary. The Philistines put themselves again in array against Israel, and in the battle which ensued "Israel was smitten, and there was a very great slaughter." The tidings of this great disaster were speedily conveyed to Shiloh, about 20 miles distant, by a messenger, a Benjamite from the army. There Eli sat outside the gate of the sanctuary by the wayside, anxiously waiting for tidings from the battle-field. The full extent of the national calamity was speedily made known to him: "Israel is fled before the Philistines, there has also been a great slaughter among the people, thy two sons Hophni and Phinehas are dead, and the ark of God is taken" ( kjv@1Samuel:4:12-18). When the old man, whose eyes were "stiffened" (i.e., fixed, as of a blind eye unaffected by the light) with age, heard this sad story of woe, he fell backward from off his seat and died, being ninety and eight years old. (
See ITHAMAR Eli, Heb. eli, "my God", kjv@Matthew:27:46), an exclamation used by Christ on the cross. Mark (15:34), as usual, gives the original Aramaic form of the word, Eloi.

In his office as governor of the palace of Hezekiah he succeeded Shebna kjv@Isaiah:22:15-25). He was a good man kjv@Isaiah:22:20; kjv@2Kings:18:37), and had a splendid and honourable career.
(4.) The original name of Jehoiakim, king of Judah ( kjv@2Kings:23:34). He was the son of Josiah.
Eliam @ God's people.

(2.) This name also occurs as that of a Gilonite, the son of Ahithophel, and one of David's thirty warriors ( kjv@2Samuel:23:34). perhaps these two were the same person.
Elias @ the Greek form of Elijah kjv@Matthew:11:14 kjv@Matthew:16:14, etc.), which the Revised Version has uniformly adopted in the New Testament. (
See ELIJAH.)
Eliashib @ whom God will restore.
(1.) A priest, head of one of the courses of the priests of the time of David ( kjv@1Chronicles:24:12).
(2.) A high priest in the time of Ezra and Nehemiah kjv@Nehemiah:12:22-23). He rebuilt the eastern city wall (3:1), his own mansion being in that quarter, on the ridge Ophel (3:20-21). His indulgence of Tobiah the Ammonite provoked the indignation of Nehemiah (13:4,7).
Eliathah @ to whom God will come, one of the foureen sons of the Levite Heman, and musician of the temple in the time of David ( kjv@1Chronicles:25:4).

Eliezer @ God his help.
(1.) "Of Damascus," the "steward" (R.V., "possessor") of Abraham's house kjv@Genesis:15:2-3). It was probably he who headed the embassy sent by Abraham to the old home of his family in Padan-aram to seek a wife for his son Isaac. The account of this embassy is given at length in kjv@Genesis:24.
(2.) The son of Becher, and grandson of Benjamin ( kjv@1Chronicles:7:8).
(3.) One of the two sons of Moses, born during his sojourn in Midian kjv@Exodus:18:4; kjv@1Chronicles:23:15-17). He remained with his mother and brother Gershom with Jethro when Moses returned to Egypt. kjv@Exodus:18:4). They were restored to Moses when Jethro heard of his departure out of Egypt.
(4.) One of the priests who blew the trumpet before the ark when it was brought to Jerusalem ( kjv@1Chronicles:15:24).
(5.) Son of Zichri, and chief of the Reubenites under David ( kjv@1Chronicles:27:16).
(6.) A prophet in the time of Jehoshaphat ( kjv@2Chronicals:20:37). Others of this name are mentioned kjv@Luke:3:29; kjv@Ezra:8:16 kjv@Ezra:10:18 kjv@Ezra:10:23, 31.
Elihu @ whose God is he.
(1.) "The son of Barachel, a Buzite" kjv@Job:32:2), one of Job's friends. When the debate between Job and his friends is brought to a close, Elihu for the first time makes his appearance, and delivers his opinion on the points at issue Job:32-37).
(2.) The son of Tohu, and grandfather of Elkanah ( kjv@1Samuel:1:1). He is called also Eliel ( kjv@1Chronicles:6:34) and Eliab (6:27).

(4.) One of the family of Obed-edom, who were appointed porters of the temple under David ( kjv@1Chronicles:26:7).
Elijah @ whose God is Jehovah.
(1.) "The Tishbite," the "Elias" of the New Testament, is suddenly introduced to our notice in kjvKings:17:1 as delivering a message from the Lord to Ahab. There is mention made of a town called Thisbe, south of Kadesh, but it is impossible to say whether this was the place referred to in the name given to the prophet. Having delivered his message to Ahab, he retired at the command of God to a hiding-place by the brook Cherith, beyond Jordan, where he was fed by ravens. When the brook dried up God sent him to the widow of Zarephath, a city of Zidon, from whose scanty store he was supported for the space of two years. During this period the widow's son died, and was restored to life by Elijah (kjvKings:17: 2-24). During all these two years a famine prevailed in the land. At the close of this period of retirement and of preparation for his work (comp. kjv@Galatians:1:17-18) Elijah met Obadiah, one of Ahab's officers, whom he had sent out to seek for pasturage for the cattle, and bade him go and tell his master that Elijah was there. The king came and met Elijah, and reproached him as the troubler of Israel. It was then proposed that sacrifices should be publicly offered, for the purpose of determining whether Baal or Jehovah were the true God. This was done on Carmel, with the result that the people fell on their faces, crying, "The Lord, he is the God." Thus was accomplished the great work of Elijah's ministry. The prophets of Baal were then put to death by the order of Elijah. Not one of them escaped. Then immediately followed rain, according to the word of Elijah, and in answer to his prayer kjv@James:5:18). Jezebel, enraged at the fate that had befallen her priests of Baal, threatened to put Elijah to death (kjvKings:19:1-13). He therefore fled in alarm to Beersheba, and thence went alone a day's journey into the wilderness, and sat down in despondency under a juniper tree. As he slept an angel touched him, and said unto him, "Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee." He arose and found a cake and a cruse of water. Having partaken of the provision thus miraculously supplied, he went forward on his solitary way for forty days and forty nights to Horeb, the mount of God, where he took up his abode in a cave. Here the Lord appeared unto him and said, "What dost thou here, Elijah?" In answer to his despondent words God manifests to him his glory, and then directs him to return to Damascus and anoint Hazael king over Syria, and Jehu king over Israel, and Elisha to be prophet in his room (kjvKings:19:13-21; comp. kjv@2Kings:8:7-15 kjv@2Kings:9:1-10). Some six years after this he warned Ahab and Jezebel of the violent deaths they would die (kjvKings:21:19-24; 22:38). He also, four years afterwards, warned Ahaziah (q.v.), who had succeeded his father Ahab, of his approaching death ( kjv@2Kings:1:1-16). (
See NABOTH.) During these intervals he probably withdrew to some quiet retirement, no one knew where. His interview with Ahaziah's messengers on the way to Ekron, and the account of the destruction of his captains with their fifties, suggest the idea that he may have been in retirement at this time on Mount Carmel. The time now drew near when he was to be taken up into heaven ( kjv@2Kings:2:1-12). He had a presentiment of what was awaiting him. He went down to Gilgal, where was a school of the prophets, and where his successor Elisha, whom he had anointed some years before, resided. Elisha was solemnized by the thought of his master's leaving him, and refused to be parted from him. "They two went on," and came to Bethel and Jericho, and crossed the Jordan, the waters of which were "divided hither and thither" when smitten with Elijah's mantle. Arrived at the borders of Gilead, which Elijah had left many years before, it "came to pass as they still went on and talked" they were suddenly separated by a chariot and horses of fire; and "Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven, "Elisha receiving his mantle, which fell from him as he ascended. No one of the old prophets is so frequently referred to in the New Testament. The priests and Levites said to the Baptist kjv@John:1:25), "Why baptizest thou, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias?" Paul kjv@Romans:11:2) refers to an incident in his history to illustrate his argument that God had not cast away his people. James (5:17) finds in him an illustration of the power of prayer. (
See also kjv@Luke:4:25 kjv@Luke:9:54.) He was a type of John the Baptist in the sternness and power of his reproofs kjv@Luke:9:8). He was the Elijah that "must first come" kjv@Matthew:11:11 kjv@Matthew:11:14), the forerunner of our Lord announced by Malachi. Even outwardly the Baptist corresponded so closely to the earlier prophet that he might be styled a second Elijah. In him we see "the same connection with a wild and wilderness country; the same long retirement in the desert; the same sudden, startling entrance on his work (kjvKings:17:1; kjv@Luke:3:2); even the same dress, a hairy garment, and a leathern girdle about the loins ( kjv@2Kings:1:8; kjv@Matthew:3:4)." How deep the impression was which Elijah made "on the mind of the nation may be judged from the fixed belief, which rested on the words of Malachi (4:5-6), which many centuries after prevailed that he would again appear for the relief and restoration of the country. Each remarkable person as he arrives on the scene, be his habits and characteristics what they may, the stern John equally with his gentle Successor, is proclaimed to be Elijah kjv@Matthew:11:13-14 kjv@Matthew:16:14 kjv@Matthew:17:10 ; kjv@Mark:9:11 kjv@Mark:15:35; kjv@Luke:9:7-8; kjv@John:1:21). His appearance in glory on the mount of transfiguration does not seem to have startled the disciples. They were 'sore afraid,' but not apparently surprised."
(2.) The Elijah spoken of in kjv@2Chronicals:21:12-15 is by some supposed to be a different person from the foregoing. He lived in the time of Jehoram, to whom he sent a letter of warning (comp. kjv@1Chronicles:28:19; Jeremiah:36), and acted as a prophet in Judah; while the Tishbite was a prophet of the northern kingdom. But there does not seem any necessity for concluding that the writer of this letter was some other Elijah than the Tishbite. It may be supposed either that Elijah anticipated the character of Jehoram, and so wrote the warning message, which was preserved in the schools of the prophets till Jehoram ascended the throne after the Tishbite's translation, or that the translation did not actually take place till after the accession of Jehoram to the throne ( kjv@2Chronicals:21:12; kjv@2Kings:8:16). The events of 2Kings:2 may not be recorded in chronological order, and thus there may be room for the opinion that Elijah was still alive in the beginning of Jehoram's reign.
Elika @ God is his rejector, one of David's thirty-seven distinguished heros ( kjv@2Samuel:23:25).
Elim @ trees, kjv@Exodus:15:27; kjv@Numbers:33:9), the name of the second station where the Israelites encamped after crossing the Red Sea. It had "twelve wells of water and threescore and ten palm trees." It has been identified with the Wady Ghurundel, the most noted of the four wadies which descend from the range of et
- Tih towards the sea. Here they probably remained some considerable time. The form of expression in kjv@Exodus:16:1 seems to imply that the people proceeded in detachments or companies from Elim, and only for the first time were assembled as a complete host when they reached the wilderness of Sin (q.v.).
Elimelech @ God his king, a man of the tribe of Judah, of the family of the Hezronites, and kinsman of Boaz, who dwelt in Bethlehem in the days of the judges. In consequence of a great dearth he, with his wife Naomi and his two sons, went to dwell in the land of Moab. There he and his sons died kjv@Ruth:1:2-3 kjv@Ruth:2:1-3 kjv@Ruth:4:3 ,9). Naomi afterwards returned to Palestine with her daughter Ruth.
Elioenai @ toward Jehovah are my eyes, the name of several men mentioned in the Old Testament ( kjv@1Chronicles:7:8 kjv@1Chronicles:4:36; kjv@Ezra:10:22 kjv@Ezra:10:27). Among these was the eldest son of Neariah, son of Shemaiah, of the descendants of Zerubbabel. His family are the latest mentioned in the Old Testament ( kjv@1Chronicles:3:23-24).
Eliphalet @ God his deliverance, one of David's sons ( kjv@2Samuel:5:16); called also Eliphelet ( kjv@1Chronicles:3:8).
Eliphaz @ God his strength.
(1.) One of Job's "three friends" who visited him in his affliction (4:1). He was a "Temanite", i.e., a native of Teman, in Idumea. He first enters into debate with Job. His language is uniformly more delicate and gentle than that of the other two, although he imputes to Job special sins as the cause of his present sufferings. He states with remarkable force of language the infinite purity and majesty of God (4:12-21; 15:12-16).
(2.) The son of Esau by his wife Adah, and father of several Edomitish tribes kjv@Genesis:36:4 kjv@Genesis:36:10, 11, 16).
Elipheleh @ God will distinguish him, one of the porters appointed to play "on the Sheminith" on the occasion of the bringing up of the ark to the city of David ( kjv@1Chronicles:15:18 kjv@1Chronicles:15:21).
Eliphelet @ God his deliverance.
(1.) One of David's distinguished warriors ( kjv@2Samuel:23:34); called also Eliphal in kjv@1Chronicles:11:35.
(2.) One of the sons of David born at Jerusalem ( kjv@1Chronicles:3:6 kjv@1Chronicles:14:5); called Elpalet in kjv@1Chronicles:14:5. Also another of David's sons ( kjv@1Chronicles:3:8); called Eliphalet in kjv@2Samuel:5:16; kjv@1Chronicles:14:7.
(3.) A descendant of king Saul through Jonathan ( kjv@1Chronicles:8:39).
Elisabeth @ God her oath, the mother of John the Baptist kjv@Luke:1:5). She was a descendant of Aaron. She and her husband Zacharias (q.v.) "were both righteous before God" kjv@Luke:1:5 kjv@Luke:1:13). Mary's visit to Elisabeth is described in kjv@1:39-63.
Elisha @ God his salvation, the son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah, who became the attendant and disciple of Elijah (kjvKings:19:16-19). His name first occurs in the command given to Elijah to anoint him as his successor (kjvKings:19:16). This was the only one of the three commands then given to Elijah which he accomplished. On his way from Sinai to Damascus he found Elisha at his native place engaged in the labours of the field, ploughing with twelve yoke of oxen. He went over to him, threw over his shoulders his rough mantle, and at once adopted him as a son, and invested him with the prophetical office (comp. kjv@Luke:9:61-62). Elisha accepted the call thus given (about four years before the death of Ahab), and for some seven or eight years became the close attendant on Elijah till he was parted from him and taken up into heaven. During all these years we hear nothing of Elisha except in connection with the closing scenes of Elijah's life. After Elijah, Elisha was accepted as the leader of the sons of the prophets, and became noted in Israel. He possessed, according to his own request, "a double portion" of Elijah's spirit ( kjv@2Kings:2:9); and for the long period of about sixty years (B.C. 892-832) held the office of "prophet in Israel" ( kjv@2Kings:5:8). After Elijah's departure, Elisha returned to Jericho, and there healed the spring of water by casting salt into it ( kjv@2Kings:2:21). We next find him at Bethel (2:23), where, with the sternness of his master, he cursed the youths who came out and scoffed at him as a prophet of God: "Go up, thou bald head." The judgment at once took effect, and God terribly visited the dishonour done to his prophet as dishonour done to himself. We next read of his predicting a fall of rain when the army of Jehoram was faint from thirst ( kjv@2Kings:3:9-20); of the multiplying of the poor widow's cruse of oil (4:1-7); the miracle of restoring to life the son of the woman of Shunem (4:18-37); the multiplication of the twenty loaves of new barley into a sufficient supply for an hundred men (4:42-44); of the cure of Naaman the Syrian of his leprosy (5:1-27); of the punishment of Gehazi for his falsehood and his covetousness; of the recovery of the axe lost in the waters of the Jordan (6:1-7); of the miracle at Dothan, half-way on the road between Samaria and Jezreel; of the siege of Samaria by the king of Syria, and of the terrible sufferings of the people in connection with it, and Elisha's prophecy as to the relief that would come ( kjv@2Kings:6:24-7:2). We then find Elisha at Damascus, to carry out the command given to his master to anoint Hazael king over Syria ( kjv@2Kings:8:7-15); thereafter he directs one of the sons of the prophets to anoint Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat, king of Israel, instead of Ahab. Thus the three commands given to Elijah (9:1-10) were at length carried out. We do not again read of him till we find him on his death-bed in his own house ( kjv@2Kings:13:14-19). Joash, the grandson of Jehu, comes to mourn over his approaching departure, and utters the same words as those of Elisha when Elijah was taken away: "My father, my father! the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof." Afterwards when a dead body is laid in Elisha's grave a year after his burial, no sooner does it touch the hallowed remains than the man "revived, and stood up on his feet" ( kjv@2Kings:13:20-21).
Elishah @ the oldest of the four sons of Javan kjv@Genesis:10:4), whose descendants peopled Greece. It has been supposed that Elishah's descendants peopled the Peloponnesus, which was known by the name of Elis. This may be meant by "the isles of Elishah" kjv@Ezekiel:27:7).
Elishama @ whom God hears.
(1.) A prince of Benjamin, grandfather of Joshua kjv@Numbers:1:10; kjv@1Chronicles:7:26).
(2.) One of David's sons ( kjv@2Samuel:5:16).
(3.) Another of David's sons ( kjv@1Chronicles:3:6).
(4.) A priest sent by Jehoshaphat to teach the people the law ( kjv@2Chronicals:17:8).
Elishaphat @ whom God has judged, one of the "captains of hundreds" associated with Jehoiada in the league to overthrow the usurpation of Athaliah ( kjv@2Chronicals:23:1).
Elisheba @ God is her oath, the daughter of Amminadab and the wife of Aaron kjv@Exodus:6:23).
Elishua @ God his salvation, a son of David, kjv@2Samuel:5:15 = Elishama, kjv@1Chronicles:3:6.
Elkanah @ God-created.
(1.) The second son of Korah kjv@Exodus:6:24), or, according to kjv@1Chronicles:6:22-23, more correctly his grandson.
(2.) Another Levite of the line of Heman the singer, although he does not seem to have performed any of the usual Levitical offices. He was father of Samuel the prophet ( kjv@1Chronicles:6:27 kjv@1Chronicles:6:34). He was "an Ephrathite" ( kjv@1Samuel:1:1 kjv@1Samuel:1:4, 8), but lived at Ramah, a man of wealth and high position. He had two wives, Hannah, who was the mother of Samuel, and Peninnah.
Elkosh @ God my bow, the birth-place of Nahum the prophet kjv@Nahum:1:1). It was probably situated in Galilee, but nothing definite is known of it.
Ellasar @ the oak or heap of Assyria, a territory in Asia of which Arioch was king kjv@Genesis:14:1 kjv@Genesis:14:9). It is supposed that the old Chaldean town of Larsa was the metropolis of this kingdom, situated nearly half-way between Ur (now Mugheir) and Erech, on the left bank of the Euphrates. This town is represented by the mounds of Senkereh, a little to the east of Erech.
Elm @Hosea:4:13; rendered "terebinth" in the Revised Version. It is the Pistacia terebinthus of Linn., a tree common in Palestine, long-lived, and therefore often employed for landmarks and in designating places kjv@Genesis:35:4; kjv@Judges:6:11 kjv@Judges:6:19. Rendered "oak" in both A.V. and R.V.). (
