Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root חָלַם (chalam), which means "to dream."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G1798 (ἐνύπνιον, enypnion): Refers to a dream, particularly in the context of visions or revelations received during sleep. Usage: The term חֲלוֹם is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to dreams, often as a medium through which God communicates with individuals. It appears in various contexts, including prophetic revelations, personal guidance, and symbolic messages. Context: The Hebrew word חֲלוֹם (chalom) is frequently encountered in the Old Testament, where dreams serve as significant vehicles for divine revelation and guidance. Dreams are often depicted as a means by which God imparts wisdom, warnings, or future events to His people. Notable examples include the dreams of Joseph, son of Jacob, who received prophetic dreams about his future and the future of his family (Genesis 37:5-10), and the dreams of Pharaoh, which Joseph interpreted to foretell seven years of plenty followed by seven years of famine (Genesis 41:1-32).
