Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

נָדַב

(1) i.q. Arab. نَدُبَ to impel, to urge, to incite to anything (kindred to נָדַף). It only occurs in this expression, Exodus 25:2, כָּל־אִישׁ אֲשֶׁר יִדְּבֶנּוּ לִבּוֹ “whomsoever his heart impelled;” i.e. who did it willingly, spontaneously, Exodus 35:21, 29 Exodus 35:29.

(2) intrans. like the Arab. نَدُبَ to impel oneself; hence to be willing, liberal, generous; see נָדִיב and Hithpael.

Hithpael

(1) to impel oneself, to shew oneself willing, to offer oneself freely; followed by a gerund, Nehemiah 11:2 specially of volunteer soldiers (compare as to the same usage in Arabic, Alb. Schult. ad Ham. p. 310 Epist. ad Menken. p. 40), Judges 5:2, Judges 5:9 compare Psalms 110:3 used of those who offered themselves willingly for sacred military service, 2 Chronicles 17:16.

(2) to give spontaneously, or willingly, to offer, e.g. a gift to Jehovah; with an acc., 1 Chronicles 29:9, 14:17 Ezra 1:6, 2:68 3:5.
