However, the story of Naaman is referenced in the New Testament, specifically in Luke 4:27, where Jesus mentions Naaman the Syrian in the context of God's works among the Gentiles. The Greek text uses the name Ναιμάν (Naiman) to refer to Naaman.

Context: The term נַעֲמִי (Na'ami) is a proper noun used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to individuals or descendants associated with Naaman. Naaman is a significant figure mentioned in the context of the Aramean military and is most notably recognized for his healing from leprosy through the prophet Elisha, as recorded in 2 Kings 5. The Naamanites, therefore, would be considered as those who are either directly descended from or associated with Naaman. The narrative of Naaman highlights themes of faith, obedience, and the power of God working through His prophets. The story of Naaman's healing serves as a testament to God's willingness to extend grace and healing beyond the boundaries of Israel, emphasizing the universal scope of God's mercy.
