Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek name Ἀδδί corresponds to the Hebrew name עַדִּי (Addi), which is not directly listed in the Old Testament but is related to similar Hebrew names that appear in genealogical contexts. Usage: The name Addi appears in the genealogical records of the New Testament, specifically in the Gospel of Luke. Context: • Addi is a name found in the genealogy of Jesus Christ as recorded in the Gospel of Luke. In Luke 3:28, Addi is listed as an ancestor of Jesus, situated between Melchi and Cosam. The genealogical record in Luke traces the lineage of Jesus through Mary, presenting a line that emphasizes Jesus' human heritage and fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies concerning the Messiah's descent. • The name Addi itself does not carry a significant narrative or thematic role within the biblical text, but its inclusion in the genealogy underscores the meticulous care with which the Gospel writer traces Jesus' lineage back through notable figures in Jewish history. This genealogy serves to affirm Jesus' rightful place within the Davidic line, a critical aspect of messianic expectation. • The presence of Addi in the genealogy highlights the continuity of God's plan through generations, demonstrating the faithfulness of God in preserving the line through which the Savior would come. While Addi is not a prominent figure, his mention is part of the broader tapestry of biblical history that points to the coming of Christ.
