Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from two elements: הֲדַד (Hadad) and רִמּוֹן (Rimmon). Hadad is a name associated with a storm and fertility god in ancient Near Eastern cultures, while Rimmon is a name that can refer to a deity or a pomegranate.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Hadad-Rimmon, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts. Usage: The term "Hadad-Rimmon" appears in the context of a location in the plain of Megiddo, mentioned in the prophetic writings of Zechariah. Context: Hadad-Rimmon is mentioned in Zechariah 12:11, which states, "On that day the weeping in Jerusalem will be as great as the weeping of Hadad-Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo." This reference is often interpreted as an allusion to a significant mourning event, possibly linked to the death of King Josiah, who was killed in battle at Megiddo (2 Kings 23:29). The name itself suggests a syncretism of deities, combining Hadad, a storm god worshiped in Syria, with Rimmon, another deity possibly associated with fertility or agriculture. The location of Hadad-Rimmon is traditionally identified with a site in the Jezreel Valley, near the ancient city of Megiddo, a place of strategic and historical significance in Israel's history. The mourning at Hadad-Rimmon is emblematic of profound national grief, symbolizing a time of lamentation and loss.
