Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root word כֶּרֶם (kerem), meaning "vineyard."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the proper noun Karmi in the Strong's Greek lexicon, as it is a specific Hebrew name without a direct Greek counterpart. However, the concept of a "vineyard" is represented in Greek by the word ἀμπελών (ampelōn), Strong's Greek Number 290, which relates to the root meaning of Karmi.

Usage: Karmi is used as a proper noun in the Hebrew Bible, specifically as a personal name.

Context: Karmi is a biblical figure mentioned in the Old Testament. He is identified as a member of the tribe of Judah and is noted as the father of Achan. Achan is infamous for his transgression during the conquest of Jericho, where he took forbidden items, leading to Israel's defeat at Ai. Karmi's lineage is significant in the narrative of Israel's early history in the Promised Land. The account of Karmi and his family is primarily found in the Book of Joshua. In Joshua 7:1, the text states: "But the Israelites acted unfaithfully regarding the devoted things; Achan son of Karmi, the son of Zimri, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took some of them. So the LORD's anger burned against the Israelites." This passage highlights the familial connection and the consequences of Achan's actions, which indirectly reflect on Karmi as his father.
