Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root גָּד (Gad), which is associated with the tribe of Gad, one of the twelve tribes of Israel.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name גָּדִי (Gadi), as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament writings.

Usage: The name Gadi is used in the context of a personal name, specifically identifying a father of a notable biblical figure.

Context: Gadi is mentioned in the Hebrew Bible as the father of Menahem, who became king of Israel. The reference to Gadi is found in 2 Kings 15:17: "In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah's reign over Judah, Menahem son of Gadi became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria ten years." Gadi's significance in the biblical narrative is primarily through his son, Menahem, who is noted for his violent rise to power and his subsequent reign over the northern kingdom of Israel. The name Gadi itself reflects a connection to the tribe of Gad, one of the tribes of Israel, suggesting a heritage linked to fortune or blessing.
