Strong's Lexicon
Ammoni: Ammonite

Original Word: עַמּוֹנִי
Part of Speech: Adjective
Transliteration: `Ammowniy
Pronunciation: am-mo-nee
Phonetic Spelling: (am-mo-nee')
Definition: Ammonite
Meaning: an Ammonite, Ammonitish

Word Origin: Derived from עַמּוֹן (Ammon), referring to the descendants of Ammon, the son of Lot.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent in Strong's Concordance, as the term specifically refers to a Hebrew ethnic group. However, the Greek term "Ἀμμωνίτης" (Ammonites) can be found in the Septuagint.

Usage: The term "Ammoni" refers to the people of Ammon, a nation located east of the Jordan River. In the Bible, the Ammonites are often depicted as adversaries of Israel. The term is used to describe individuals belonging to this ethnic group.

Cultural and Historical Background: The Ammonites were descendants of Lot, Abraham's nephew, through his younger daughter (Genesis 19:38). They settled in the region known as Ammon, which is present-day Jordan. The Ammonites frequently clashed with the Israelites, as seen in various biblical narratives. They worshiped the god Milcom or Molech, and their practices were often in direct opposition to the worship of Yahweh. Despite their kinship with Israel, the Ammonites were often hostile, leading to numerous conflicts.
