Nod; wandering, exile.
nod (as in the Land of Nod = sleep)
The "City of Nod" is a biblical reference found in the Book of Genesis, where Cain is said to have settled after being cursed for killing Abel. It is described as a land east of Eden, but its exact location is unknown and is often considered a symbolic place rather than a specific geographic location. Today, the term "Nod" is sometimes used metaphorically to represent exile or wandering. As such, there is no physical city of Nod that exists today.
The land of Nod is where Cain was exiled after he killed Abel. The Bible does not say where the son went by name, it just states "to a distant land".
The sheepdog's name in Walter de la Mare's "Nod" is Bo'sun.
LOL wut?
Its when you nod, like a smart person.
Muu nod jee met
It's not an idiom, it's a saying. If the horse is blind, it can't see either the nod or the wink, so they'd mean the same thing to the horse. You nod when you're agreeing and you wink when you're sneaking around with something.
It means to fall asleep while sitting (or standing).
The Land of Nod is a mythical place often referenced in literature and folklore, particularly in the Bible, where it is described as the region to which Cain was exiled. While it has inspired various artistic interpretations and cultural references, there is no geographical location that corresponds to the Land of Nod in reality. Thus, it remains a fictional concept rather than a real place.
Answer 1:In Genesis it says that God created "THEM" male and female and it repeats this again. considering that man was made of clay and that different areas soils are different It might be that God simultaneously created many Eves and Adams. And that these names are "blanket" names for the species so to speak. There is no Biblical Evidence for this theory but is can explain the being of people in the land of Nod according to the Genesis narrative. Answer 2:The Torah says that Cain was sent to the land of Nod after he killed his brother, Abel. According to Genesis Adam and Eve were the first people on earth so there shouldn't be any other people. But it realy says nothing about there being other people at this land. It might be that the name Nod is a literary use (not an actual place) to remark that Cain was banished, because the Hebrew word (used in this paragraph in Genesis) for "wandering" is "Na Va-Nad" (which sounds like Nod).
i think this is an amalgamation of 'a winks as good as a nod to a blind man', and, a word is enough to the wise (and a few other variations). hope this helps.
