Nekrod is not a Hebrew word, it is a Greek word describing a lifeless corpse (related to the word for death, nekros). It is used in several mystical works, including several about Thelema, an occult movement based on the works of Aleister Crowley. According to the Thelemic Qabalah (not related to the Jewish Kabbalah mystic movement), it is one of the three main divisions of Hell: Nekrod, Puramid and Fallod.
