Usage: Karmi is a proper noun used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to a specific individual. The name Karmi means "my vineyard" or "vinedresser," reflecting a connection to agriculture, particularly vineyards, which were significant in ancient Israelite society. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, vineyards were a symbol of prosperity and blessing. The cultivation of vineyards was an important aspect of the agrarian lifestyle, and wine was a staple in the diet and religious practices. The name Karmi, therefore, may imply a familial or occupational connection to this vital aspect of Israelite life. Names often carried significant meaning, reflecting the character or destiny of the individual or their family. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originfrom the same as kerem Definition two Isr.
