Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root הָמוֹן (Hamon), meaning "multitude" or "crowd."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Hamonah, as it is a unique proper noun specific to the Hebrew text of the Old Testament. However, the concept of a "multitude" can be related to Greek terms such as πλῆθος (plethos, Strong's Greek 4128), which also means "multitude" or "crowd."

Usage: The term "Hamonah" appears in the Hebrew Bible as a proper noun, specifically as the name of a location.

Context: Hamonah is mentioned in the Book of Ezekiel as a place associated with the burial of Gog and his multitude. In Ezekiel 39:16, it is described as the location where the multitude of Gog will be buried, thus giving the valley its name, "The Valley of Hamon Gog." The name "Hamonah" signifies the vast number of those who will be buried there, emphasizing the magnitude of the event and the defeat of Gog's forces. This prophetic passage highlights the divine judgment and the ultimate victory of God over the enemies of Israel. The specific geographical location of Hamonah is not identified in modern terms, and it remains a subject of eschatological interpretation and study.
