Nodab is not an individual but the name of a tribal group descended from Ishmael, listed in 1 Chronicles 5:19 among the peoples the trans-Jordanic tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half of Manasseh went to war against, along with Jetur and Naphish. The Ishmaelite tribes named there correspond broadly to Arab groups listed in Genesis 25:15. No further information about this particular clan survives outside this one battle notice.
