Word Origin: Derived from תֵּימָן (Teman), which refers to a region or a descendant of Esau.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the Hebrew term תֵּימָנִי (Temani) in the Strong's Greek lexicon, as it is a specific proper noun referring to a geographical and ethnic identity unique to the Hebrew context.

Usage: The term "Temanite" is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to individuals from the region of Teman, which is associated with Edom. It is specifically used to describe Eliphaz, one of Job's friends.

Context: The term תֵּימָנִי (Temani) is a proper noun used to identify individuals from the region of Teman, a notable area in Edom. Teman is traditionally linked to the descendants of Esau, Jacob's brother, and is often mentioned in the context of wisdom and counsel. The most prominent biblical figure identified as a Temanite is Eliphaz, one of Job's three friends, who is described as "Eliphaz the Temanite" in the Book of Job. Eliphaz is depicted as a wise man, though his counsel to Job is ultimately critiqued by God. The Temanites, by extension, are associated with the wisdom traditions of the ancient Near East, and Teman itself is sometimes referenced in prophetic literature as a place of judgment or calamity (e.g., Obadiah 1:9).
