Context: The term "Garmi" is a descriptive adjective in the Hebrew language, derived from the root word גֶּרֶם (gerem), which means "bone." In the biblical context, bones are often symbolic of strength and structure, providing the framework for the body. Thus, "Garmi" conveys the idea of something that is robust and enduring. The metaphorical use of bones in the Bible often extends to signify inner strength or the essence of life, as bones are integral to the human form. While the specific term "Garmi" does not appear frequently in the biblical text, its root and related forms are used to describe the physical and metaphorical strength of individuals or nations. For example, in passages where bones are mentioned, they often symbolize vitality and the foundational aspects of life. The Berean Standard Bible does not have a direct translation for "Garmi," but the concept is reflected in the broader biblical narrative where strength and resilience are key themes.
