Word Origin: Derived from the root נָחַם (nacham), meaning "to comfort" or "to console."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the proper noun Nachamani, as it is a specific Hebrew name. However, the concept of comfort and consolation can be related to Greek words such as παρακαλέω (parakaleo • Strong's Greek 3870), which means "to comfort" or "to console."

Usage: The name Nachamani appears in the genealogical records of the Bible, specifically in the context of the post-exilic community.

Context: Nachamani is a name found in the genealogical lists of the post-exilic community in the Book of Nehemiah. It is mentioned in Nehemiah 7:7, where it is listed among the leaders who returned with Zerubbabel from the Babylonian exile. The name is indicative of the hope and comfort that the returning exiles sought as they reestablished their community in Jerusalem. The presence of such names in the genealogical records underscores the importance of lineage and heritage in the restoration of Israel's identity and religious life after the exile. The name Nachamani, with its root meaning "comfort," reflects the broader theme of divine consolation and restoration that is prevalent in the post-exilic narratives.
