Strong's Lexicon Ben-yemini: Benjamite Original Word: בֶּן־יְמִינִי Word Origin: Derived from בִּנְיָמִין (Binyamin), meaning "son of the right hand" or "son of the south." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G958 Βενιαμίν (Beniamin) - Refers to the tribe of Benjamin or individuals from this tribe in the New Testament. Usage: The term "Ben-yemini" refers to a member of the tribe of Benjamin, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. The tribe of Benjamin is known for its warriors and significant figures in Israel's history, including King Saul and the Apostle Paul (formerly Saul of Tarsus). Cultural and Historical Background: The tribe of Benjamin was the smallest of the tribes of Israel, descended from Benjamin, the youngest son of Jacob and Rachel. Despite its size, the tribe played a crucial role in Israel's history. Located between the powerful tribes of Judah and Ephraim, Benjamin's territory included Jerusalem, making it strategically significant. The tribe was known for its skilled archers and slingers, as noted in Judges 20:16. The Benjamites were involved in several key events, including the civil war against the other tribes of Israel (Judges 19-21) and the establishment of the monarchy under Saul.
