Strong's Lexicon Achisamak: Ahisamach Original Word: אֲחִיסָמָךְ Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew roots אָח ('ach, meaning "brother") and סָמַךְ (samak, meaning "to support" or "to lean upon") Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Ahisamach in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name specific to the Old Testament context. Usage: The name Ahisamach means "my brother supports" or "brother of support." It is used in the Bible as a personal name, specifically identifying a member of the tribe of Dan. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of ancient Israel, names often held significant meaning and were sometimes indicative of familial roles or divine attributes.
