Strong's Lexicon Chamul: Chamul Original Word: חָמוּל Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root חָמַל (chamal), meaning "to spare" or "to have compassion." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the proper name Chamul, as it is specific to Hebrew genealogies. However, genealogical names in the Greek New Testament, such as those found in the genealogies of Jesus in Matthew 1 and Luke 3, serve a similar purpose in tracing lineage. Usage: Chamul is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It is the name of a descendant of Judah, specifically a grandson through Judah's son Perez. Cultural and Historical Background: In the genealogical records of the tribes of Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes reflective of circumstances surrounding a birth or the character hoped for in the child. The name Chamul, derived from a root meaning "to spare" or "to have compassion," may suggest a family hope or prayer for divine mercy or compassion. The genealogies in which Chamul appears are crucial for understanding the lineage of the tribe of Judah, from which King David and ultimately Jesus Christ descended.
