Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root יָמִים (yāmîm), meaning "days."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry related to the concept of "day" is Strong's G2250 (ἡμέρα, hēmera), which means "day." This Greek term is used throughout the New Testament to denote a literal day or a period of time, aligning with the thematic element of time and renewal associated with Jemimah's name. Usage: Jemimah is used as a proper noun, specifically as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. Context: Jemimah is mentioned in the Book of Job as the eldest of Job's three daughters born to him after his restoration. Her name appears in Job 42:14, where it is stated: "The first daughter he named Jemimah, the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch." Jemimah, along with her sisters, is noted for her beauty, which is highlighted in the text as being unparalleled in the land. The mention of Jemimah and her sisters is significant as it underscores the restoration and blessing of Job's life after his trials. The naming of daughters in the genealogical record is relatively rare in the Hebrew Bible, indicating the special status and favor bestowed upon Job's daughters. Jemimah's name, meaning "dove" or "day by day," may symbolize peace, beauty, and the renewal of life, reflecting the themes of restoration and divine favor present in the narrative.
