Question 1 Report

The name Ichabod means
Answer Details
The name Ichabod means "the glory has departed from Israel". It comes from the Hebrew Bible and is mentioned in the book of 1 Samuel. Ichabod was the son of Phinehas, who was a priest in the service of God. The name was given to Ichabod after the Ark of the Covenant was captured by the Philistines and his father and brother were killed in battle. When his mother heard the news, she went into labor and gave birth to him, and she named him Ichabod to signify the loss of the Ark and the departure of God's glory from Israel.
