Strong's Lexicon Sukkiyyim: Sukkiim, Sukkiites Original Word: סֻכִּי Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root סֻכָּה (sukkah), meaning "booth" or "tent." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Sukkiyyim in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as this is a specific ethnic group mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. Usage: The term "Sukkiyyim" refers to a people group mentioned in the Old Testament. They are identified as one of the groups that participated in military campaigns alongside the Egyptians. The name is thought to be related to their dwelling in temporary shelters or tents, as suggested by the root word. Cultural and Historical Background: The Sukkiyyim are mentioned in the context of the ancient Near Eastern world, where various nomadic and semi-nomadic tribes often played roles in regional conflicts. Their association with Egypt suggests they may have been mercenaries or allies who lived in the vicinity of Egypt or were under Egyptian influence. The use of tents or temporary dwellings was common among nomadic tribes, which aligns with the etymology of their name.
