Strong's Lexicon Mashmannah: Fatness, Richness Original Word: מִשְׁמַנָּה Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁמֵן (shaman), meaning "to be fat" or "to grow fat." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "Mashmannah," the concept of abundance and richness can be related to Greek terms such as πλοῦτος (ploutos, G4149) meaning "wealth" or "riches." Usage: The term "Mashmannah" is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote physical fatness or richness, often symbolizing abundance, prosperity, or blessing. It can refer to the literal fatness of the land, indicating fertility and productivity, or metaphorically to wealth and prosperity. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, fatness was often associated with prosperity and divine blessing. The land's ability to produce abundantly was seen as a sign of God's favor. In a society where survival depended heavily on agriculture and livestock, the concept of "fatness" was directly linked to sustenance and well-being. Thus, "Mashmannah" carried connotations of both physical and spiritual abundance. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originfrom shamen Definition one of David's heroes NASB Translation Mishmannah (1).
