Strong's Lexicon chashman: Noble, nobleman Original Word: חַשְׁמַן Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to be rich or to be esteemed. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "chashman," the concept of nobility can be related to Greek terms such as "εὐγενής" (eugenēs), meaning "noble" or "well-born," which appears in the New Testament. Usage: The term "chashman" refers to a person of noble status or a nobleman. It is used to describe individuals who hold a position of honor, wealth, or influence within a society. The word conveys a sense of dignity and respect associated with those who are considered leaders or esteemed members of the community. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, nobility was often associated with wealth, land ownership, and leadership roles within the community. Nobles were expected to uphold justice, provide for the welfare of the people, and maintain the social order. The concept of nobility was not only tied to social status but also to moral and ethical responsibilities. The Hebrew understanding of nobility included a sense of duty to act righteously and to lead by example.
