【释义】：

俄南；(喻)夭折

And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.

And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shuah;and he took her, and went in unto her.

And she conceived, and bare a son; and he called his name Er.

And she conceived again, and bare a son; and she called his name Onan.

And she yet again conceived, and bare a son; and called his name Shelah; and he was at Chezib, when she bare him.

And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar.

And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the Lord; and the Lord slew him.

And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother.

And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unlo his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.

And the thing which he did displeased the Lord: wherefore he slew him also.

Gen.38;l-10

那时，犹大离开他弟兄下去，到一个亚杜兰人名叫希拉的家里去。

犹大在那里看见一个迦南人名叫书亚的女儿，就娶她为妻，与她同房。

她就怀孕生了儿子，犹大给他起名叫珥。

她又怀孕生了儿子，母亲给他起名叫俄南。

她复又生了儿子，给他起名叫示拉。

她生示拉的时候，犹大正在基悉。

犹大为长子珥娶妻，名叫他玛。

犹大的长子珥在耶和华眼中看为恶，耶和华就叫他死了。

犹大对俄南说：“你当与你哥哥的妻子同房，向她尽你为弟的本份，为你哥哥生子立后。”

俄南知道生子不归自己，所以同房的时候，便遗在地，免得给他哥哥留后。

俄南所作的在耶和华眼中看为恶，耶和华也就叫他死了。
