a-bin?a-dab (אבינדב, 'ăbhı̄nādhābh, ?father of willingness,? or, ?my father is willing.? This is according to the ordinary usage of the second word in the name - ?willing? rather than ?munificent? or ?noble?):
(1) The man in whose house the men of Kiriath-jearim placed the ark, after its return from the land of the Philistines, his house being either in Gibeah of Benjamin or ?in the hill? (1Sa_7:1; 2Sa_6:3, 2Sa_6:4). To account for the ambiguity note that gibh'āh means hill, and that the place-name Gibeah ordinarily has the definite article. It is natural to think that Abinadab was himself a man of Kiriath-jearim, though the account does not explicitly say so. The record is that the men of Kiriath-jearim were summoned to take charge of the ark at a time when no one else dared to have it (1Sa_6:20, 1Sa_6:21); and the implication seems to be that they had no option to refuse. Possibly this was due to their being Gibeonites, and hereditary ?bondmen? of ?the house of my God? (Jos_9:17, Jos_9:23). However this may be, they ?sanctified? Abinadab's son Eleazar to have charge of the ark. According to the Hebrew and some of the Greek copies, the ark was in Gibeah in the middle of the reign of King Saul (1Sa_14:18).
About a century later, according to the Bible numbers, David went with great pomp to Kiriath-jearim, otherwise known as Baalah or Baale-judah, to bring the ark from Kiriath-jearim, out of the house of Abinadab in the hill (or, in Gibeah), and place it in Jerusalem (1Ch_13:1-14; 2 Sam 6). The new cart was driven by two descendants of Abinadab. There may or may not have been another Abinadab then living, the head of the house.
(2) The second of the eight sons of Jesse, one of the three who were in Saul's army when Goliath gave his challenge (1Sa_16:8; 1Sa_17:13; 1Ch_2:13).
(3) One of the sons of King Saul (1Ch_8:33; 1Ch_9:39; 1Ch_10:2; 1Sa_31:2). He died in the battle of Gilboa, along with his father and brothers.
(4) In 1Ki_4:11 the King James Version has ?the son of Abinadab,? where the Revised Version (British and American) has BEN-ABINADAB.

Abinadab
(Heb. Abinadab', אֲבַינָדָב, father of nobleness, i.e. noble; Sept. everywhere Α᾿μιναδάβ, Vulg. Abinadab. Josephus Α᾿βινάδαβος, Ant. 8:2, 3), the name of four men.
1. A Levite of Kirjath-jearim, in whose house, which was on a hill [ SEE GIBEAH ], the ark of the covenant was deposited, after being brought back from the land of the Philistines (1Sa_7:1), B.C. 1124. It was committed to the special charge of his son Eleazar; and remained there eighty years, until it was removed by David (2Sa_6:3-4; 1Ch_13:7). SEE ARK.
2. The second of the eight sons of Jesse, the father of David (1Sa_16:8; 1Ch_2:13), and one of the three who followed Saul to the campaign against the Philistines in which Goliath defied the army (1Sa_17:13), B.C. 1063,
3. The third named of the four sons of King Saul (1Ch_8:33; 1Ch_9:39), and one of the three who perished with their father in the battle at Gilboa (1Sa_31:2; 1Ch_10:2), B.C. 1053. His name appears to be omitted in the list in 1Sa_14:49.
4. The father of one of Solomon's purveyors (or rather BEN-ABINIDAB is to be regarded as the name of the purveyor himself), who presided over the district of Dor, and married Taphath, Solomon's daughter (1Ki_4:11), B.C. ante 1014.
