Motsa — a personal name borne by a descendant of Caleb and a descendant of Saul in the Benjaminite line
Motsa is the name of two distinct individuals in the Chronicler's genealogies. The first is a son of Caleb by his concubine Ephah (1 Chr 2:46). The second belongs to the Saulide genealogy in the tribe of Benjamin, appearing in both the parallel lists of 1 Chronicles 8:36-37 and 9:42-43. The LXX renders these variously as Mousas and Massas. Spanish and English transliterations (Motsa) are stable, while French and German retain the Hebrew script forms.
Senses
1. sense 1 — A proper name for two individuals in Chronicles. In 1 Chronicles 2:46 Motsa is a Calebite through the concubine Ephah. In 1 Chronicles 8:36-37 and its parallel 9:42-43, Motsa is a Benjaminite descendant of Saul through Meribbaal. The LXX variants (Ioosa, Maisa, Massa, Mosa) suggest early confusion or dialectal variation. The consistent English and Spanish rendering Motsa contrasts with French and German versions that retain untransliterated Hebrew forms. 5×
