Ichabod


Ik´uh-bod

A child born to Phinehas, son of Eli, the priest of Shiloh, at the time of the battle of Ebenezer. The Hebrew name, which means “Alas, the Glory!” belongs to a category of names expressing mourning for an absent deity. According to (1Sam 4:19-21) Ichabod’s mother gave him the name in grief over the capture of the Ark.
