Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to cover or hide.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Greek entries for חֲנָמָל in the Strong's Concordance, as the concept of the aphis or plantlouse is specific to the Hebrew context and does not have a direct equivalent in the Greek New Testament lexicon. However, the broader theme of agricultural pests and divine protection can be found in various Greek passages that discuss similar themes of provision and protection. Usage: The term חֲנָמָל is used in the context of small insects, specifically referring to the aphis or plantlouse, which are known for their ability to cover and infest plants. Context: The Hebrew word חֲנָמָל (chanamal) appears in the context of agricultural and natural imagery within the Hebrew Bible. It is understood to refer to the aphis or plantlouse, a small insect that is often found in large numbers on plants, feeding on their sap. This term is indicative of the challenges faced in ancient agrarian societies, where such pests could devastate crops and lead to significant agricultural loss. The imagery of the aphis is used to convey the idea of pervasive and often hidden threats that can cover and consume, much like the way these insects infest plants. The presence of such terms in the biblical text highlights the intimate connection between the people of Israel and their land, as well as the reliance on divine protection and provision against natural adversities.
