Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew words אָח ('ach, meaning "brother") and מָן (man, meaning "portion" or "gift").Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Achiman, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament. Usage: Achiman is used as a proper noun, specifically as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. Context: Achiman is one of the three sons of Anak mentioned in the Old Testament. He is noted as one of the formidable Anakim, a race of giants who inhabited the land of Canaan prior to the Israelite conquest. Achiman, along with his brothers Sheshai and Talmai, resided in Hebron, a significant city in the biblical narrative. The presence of these giants in Hebron is highlighted in the account of the spies sent by Moses to scout the Promised Land. In Numbers 13:22, the spies report seeing the descendants of Anak, including Achiman, which instills fear among the Israelites due to their formidable stature and strength. The eventual conquest of Hebron by Caleb, as recorded in Joshua 15:14, marks the defeat of Achiman and his brothers, signifying the fulfillment of God's promise to give the land to the descendants of Abraham. Achiman's mention underscores the challenges faced by the Israelites in claiming their inheritance and the divine assistance in overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles.
