Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to be devoted or consecrated. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the proper noun Charumaph, as it is a specific Hebrew name without a corresponding Greek translation in the Septuagint or New Testament texts. However, the concept of dedication or consecration, which underlies the root of Charumaph, can be related to Greek terms such as ἁγιάζω (hagiazō, Strong's Greek 37), meaning "to sanctify" or "to consecrate." Usage: The name Charumaph appears in the context of genealogical records within the Old Testament. Context: Charumaph is mentioned in the book of Nehemiah as the father of a notable figure involved in the rebuilding of Jerusalem's walls. Specifically, in Nehemiah 3:10, it is recorded: "Next to them, Jedaiah son of Harumaph made repairs opposite his house." This passage highlights the collaborative effort of various families and individuals in the restoration of Jerusalem's fortifications following the Babylonian exile. Charumaph, through his son Jedaiah, is thus associated with the faithful remnant committed to the restoration and renewal of the city, reflecting the broader theme of covenantal faithfulness and communal responsibility in the post-exilic period.
