Original Word: יָמִין
Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine
Transliteration: Yamiyn
Pronunciation: yah-MEEN
Phonetic Spelling: (yaw-meen')
Definition: Jamin
Meaning: Jamin

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root יָמִין (yamin), meaning "right hand" or "south."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew name Yamin, but the concept of the "right hand" is often translated in the New Testament as δεξιός (dexios), Strong's Greek 1188, which also means "right hand" or "right side."

Usage: The name "Yamin" or "Jamin" is used in the Hebrew Bible as a proper noun, typically referring to individuals. It is associated with the concept of the "right hand," which in Hebrew culture symbolizes strength, authority, and favor. The name may imply someone who is strong or favored.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the right hand was often seen as a symbol of power and blessing. The right hand was used in oaths and blessings, and it was considered a place of honor. The name Yamin, therefore, carries connotations of strength and favor. The tribe of Benjamin, which means "son of the right hand," shares the same root, highlighting the cultural significance of the right hand in Israelite society.
