Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Corresponds to the Hebrew root גֶּרֶם (H1634), meaning "bone."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: Strong's Greek Number 3747: ὀστέον (osteon) • meaning "bone." This Greek term is used in the New Testament to refer to bones, similar to the Aramaic גֶּרֶם in its literal sense.

Usage: The term גֶּרֶם is used in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament to denote bones. It appears in contexts that describe physical human or animal bones.

Context: The Aramaic word גֶּרֶם (gerem) is found in the book of Daniel, specifically in Daniel 6:24. In this passage, the term is used to describe the bones of those who were thrown into the lions' den. The context of the passage highlights the physical destruction and the power of divine intervention, as the lions overpower the accusers of Daniel before they even reach the floor of the den. The use of the word "bones" underscores the completeness of the lions' attack, leaving no part of the body untouched. This term is significant in illustrating the severity of the punishment and the miraculous protection of Daniel, who remained unharmed.
