Strong's Lexicon shalmon: Salmon Original Word: שַׁלְמוֹן Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: shalmon Pronunciation: shal-MONE Phonetic Spelling: (shal-mone') Definition: Salmon Meaning: a bribe Word Origin: Derived from the root word שָׁלוֹם (shalom), meaning "peace" or "completeness." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - Strong's Greek 4537: Σαλμών (Salmon) Usage: The name "Shalmon" or "Salmon" is used in the Bible as a proper noun, referring to a specific individual in the genealogies of Israel. Salmon is noted as an ancestor of King David and, ultimately, Jesus Christ. The name itself suggests a connotation of peace or completeness, reflecting the root word "shalom." Cultural and Historical Background: Salmon is a significant figure in the genealogical records of the Israelites. He is mentioned as the father of Boaz, who married Ruth, a Moabite woman. This union is notable for its inclusion of a Gentile into the lineage of David and the Messiah, highlighting the theme of God's redemptive plan extending beyond Israel. Salmon's marriage to Rahab, a former Canaanite prostitute who aided the Israelite spies, further underscores the inclusivity and grace found in God's covenant community.
