NOD. According to Genesis 4:16 , the country in which Cain the fratricide took up his abode after his sentence of banishment. The place is unknown. It is probably connected in some way etymologically with the epithet nâd of v. 14 (RV [Note: Revised Version.] ‘wanderer’). The addition’ eastward of Eden’ is of little help for its location.

J. F. M‘Curdy.
