a gentilicnoun meaning 'the Meronothite,' denoting origin from an unknown location Meronoth
This gentilicadjective means 'the Meronothite,' designating someone from a place called Meronoth (location unknown). It appears twice identifying two different individuals. Jadon the Meronothite helped repair Jerusalem's walls under Nehemiah (Nehemiah 3:7). Jehdeiah the Meronothite served as overseer of donkeys in David's administration (1 Chronicles 27:30). The place name Meronoth is otherwise unattested in Scripture, and its location remains unknown despite suggestions (related to Merom? a town in Benjamin?). These gentilics preserve memory of obscure settlements whose names survived only in connection with notable individuals.

1. sense 1 — Gentilicdesignation meaning 'the Meronothite,' indicating origin from Meronoth. Both biblical occurrences use the definite article: 'Jadon the Meronothite' and 'Jehdeiah the Meronothite,' treating it as a well-known identifier. The Greek transliterations vary (ek Merathōn, Mērōnathaios), showing uncertainty about the underlying place name. That two different individuals centuries apart bear this designation suggests Meronoth was a real settlement, though it left no other trace. Such gentilics were important identity markers in ancient Israel, linking persons to family territories. 2×
