Usage: Salmon is a proper noun used in the New Testament to refer to an individual in the genealogy of Jesus Christ. He is noted as the father of Boaz and an ancestor of King David, and thus, part of the Messianic line leading to Jesus.

Cultural and Historical Background: Salmon is a significant figure in the lineage of Jesus, as recorded in the genealogies of the Gospels. He is traditionally understood to have been one of the Israelites who entered the Promised Land under Joshua's leadership.

This union is significant as it highlights the inclusion of Gentiles into the covenant community of Israel, foreshadowing the universal scope of the Gospel.
