Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Reumah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper name specific to the Hebrew text.

Usage: Reumah is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It is the name of a concubine of Nahor, Abraham's brother. The name Reumah may imply a sense of being "seen" or "considered," reflecting the root meaning of the word.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the patriarchal society of the ancient Near East, family lineage and connections were significant. Reumah, as a concubine of Nahor, would have been part of the extended family network that played a role in the social and economic structures of the time. Concubines, while not holding the same status as wives, were integral to the family unit and could bear children who would be recognized as part of the family lineage.
