Strong's Lexicon armon: Palace, citadel, fortress Original Word: אַרְמוֹן Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to be elevated Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in the Strong's Concordance, the concept of a palace or citadel can be related to Greek terms such as "βασίλειον" (basilion - G933), meaning royal palace or kingdom. Usage: The Hebrew word "armon" primarily refers to a large, fortified building or complex, often associated with royalty or significant authority. It is used to describe palaces or citadels, emphasizing their grandeur and strength. In the biblical context, "armon" is often used to depict the dwelling places of kings or rulers, symbolizing power and majesty. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, palaces were not only royal residences but also centers of administration and governance. They were often strategically located and heavily fortified to protect against invasions. The architecture of these structures reflected the wealth and power of the ruling class. In Israel, the concept of a palace was closely tied to the monarchy, with notable examples including Solomon's palace in Jerusalem.
