Usage: The verb נָדַב (nadab) is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe actions that are done willingly or voluntarily. It often refers to offerings or contributions made freely and without compulsion. Context: The Hebrew verb נָדַב (nadab) is a primitive root that conveys the idea of voluntary action, often in the context of giving or offering. It is used to describe the act of willingly contributing or dedicating something, typically in a religious or communal setting. This term is frequently associated with freewill offerings, which are given out of one's own volition rather than obligation. The concept of נָדַב emphasizes the importance of the heart's intention in acts of giving, highlighting the value of generosity that arises from a sincere and willing spirit. In the Old Testament, נָדַב is used in various contexts, such as in Exodus 25:2, where the Israelites are instructed to bring offerings for the construction of the Tabernacle: "Tell the Israelites to bring Me an offering. You are to receive My offering from every man whose heart compels him." This verse illustrates the principle that offerings should be made from a willing heart, reflecting a personal commitment to God. The term also appears in 2 Chronicles 29:31, where King Hezekiah encourages the people to bring sacrifices and thank offerings to the house of the LORD: "Then Hezekiah said, 'Now that you have consecrated yourselves to the LORD, come near and bring sacrifices and thank offerings to the house of the LORD.' So the assembly brought sacrifices and thank offerings, and all whose hearts were willing brought burnt offerings." The use of נָדַב underscores the biblical theme that true worship and service to God are characterized by voluntary and heartfelt devotion, rather than mere ritual or obligation.
