Strong's Lexicon Gether: Gether Original Word: גֶּתֶר Word Origin: Derived from an uncertain root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Gether, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew genealogical context. Usage: Gether is a personal name found in the genealogies of the Bible. It is listed as one of the sons of Aram, who was a descendant of Shem, the son of Noah. The name itself does not have a clearly defined meaning in Hebrew, but it is part of the genealogical records that trace the lineage of various peoples in the ancient Near East. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of the Bible, genealogies serve to establish historical and theological connections between different peoples and the unfolding of God's plan through history. Gether, as a descendant of Shem, is part of the Semitic lineage, which is significant in the biblical narrative as it traces the ancestry of the Israelites and other related groups. The genealogies in Genesis are not just historical records but also serve to highlight the fulfillment of God's promises and the spread of humanity after the Flood.
