Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine

Definition: Karmi
Meaning: Karmi

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

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Karmi, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew context. However, the concept of a vineyard is represented in Greek by the word ἀμπελών (ampelōn), Strong's Greek #290.

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.
