DODANIM.—Named in the MT [Note: Massoretic Text.] of Gen_10:4 among the descendants of Javan, or Ionians. The LXX [Note: Septuagint.] and Sam. versions and the parallel passage 1Ch_1:7 read Rodanim, i.e. Rhodians. Cf. the true reading of Eze_27:15 under Dedan.

(Gen_10:4) DODANIM or RODANIM (1Ch_1:7); since the Hebrew letter Daleth ( ד ) and the Hebrew letter Resh ( ר ), closely resemble One another in Hebrew, Septuagint and Samaritan versions translate "the inhabitants of Rhodes," the large island in the E. part of the Mediterranean; in Greek meaning "island of roses;" its coins are stamped with a rose. Sprung from Javan (Ionia, "the Greek race"), son of Japhet. Gesenius identifies them with the Dardani of Illyricum and Troy, a semi-Pelasgic race, akin to the Kittim or Chittim. Dodona, seat of the oracle in Epirus, is a kindred name.

Dod'anim. (leaders). Gen_10:4; 1Ch_1:7. A family or race descended from Javan, the son of Japhet. Gen_10:4; 1Ch_1:7. Dodanim is regarded as identical with the Dardani, who were found in historical times in Illyricum and Troy.
Smith's Bible Dictionary
By Dr. William Smith.Published in 1863


dō?da-nim (דּדנים, dōdhānı̄m, ?leaders?): In Gen_10:4, the son of Javan, the son of Japheth. This would place the Dodanim among the Ioninns. The parallel passage 1Ch_1:7, with the Septuagint and Samaritan Pentateuch, has, however, ?Rodanim,? which is probably the true reading. This identifies the people with the Rhodians (compare on Eze_27:15 under DEDAN).

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
PRINTER 1915.


Dod?anim, the descendants of the fourth son of Javan (Gen_10:4). Bochart and other commentators on the ethnographical sketch in Genesis 10 suppose that the first settlements of the Dodanim were in the south-west part of Asia Minor; and that settlers of this family may be traced in Thessaly and Epirus, where the name is traced in the city of Dodona and in the country of Doris. But there seems much of uncertainty in all these speculations.

Dodanim
(Hebrews Dodanim', דֹּדָנַים, deriv. unknown; Sept. ῾Ρόδιοι, Vulg. Dodanim), a family or race descended from (the fourth son of) Javan, the son of Japheth (Gen_10:4). The authorities vary as to the form of the name: the Hebrew text has Dodanim in Genesis, but RODANIM (רוֹדָנַים) in the text of the parallel passage (1Ch_1:7, margin
דּוֹדָנַים, Sept. again ῾Ρόδιοι [v.r. Δωδανάμ], and Vulg. Dodanim, A.V. "Dodanim"); Dodanim appears in the Syriac, Chaldee, Vulgate, Persian, and Arabic versions, and in the Targum of Onkelos; Rodanima is supported by the Sept., the Samaritan version, and some early writers, as Eusebius and Cosmas. The weight of authority is in favor of Dodanim; the substitution of ῾Ρόδιοι, Rhodians, in the Sept. may have arisen from familiarity with that name (compare Eze_27:15, where it is again substituted for Dedan). Dodanim is regarded as identical with Dardani (Gesenius, Thesaur. page 1266), the latter, which is the original form, having been modified by the change of the liquid r into o, as in Barmilcar and Bomilcar, Hamilcar and Hamlilco (Hall. Lit. Zeit. 1841, No. 4). Thus the Targum of Jonathan, that on Chronicles, and the Jerusalem Talmud, give Dardania for Dodanim. The Dardani were found in historical times in Illyricum and Troy: the former district was regarded as their original seat. They were probably a semi-Pelasgic race, and are grouped with the Chittim in the genealogical table, as more closely related to them than to the other branches of the Pelasgic race (Knobel, Volkertafel, page 104 sq.). The similarity of the name Dodona in Epirus (Strabo, 7:327 sq.) has led to the identification of Dodanim with that place (Michaelis, Spicileg. 1:120); but a mere local designation appears too restricted for the general tenor of Genesis 10. SEE ETHNOLOGY. Kalisch (Comm. on Gen.) identifies Dodanim with the Daunians, who occupied the coast of Apulia: he regards the name as referring to Italy generally. The wide and unexplained difference of the names, and the comparative unimportance of the Daunians, form objections to this view. Those who prefer the reading Rodanim refer it to the Greek inhabitants along the river Rhone (Bochar Phaleg, 3:6), from the original Rhodus (Tuch, Genesis page 216).
