Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name רְאוּמָה (Reumah) as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text and does not have a Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament.

Usage: The name Reumah appears in the Hebrew Bible as a female figure. It is specifically mentioned in the genealogical context.

Context: Reumah is mentioned in the Old Testament in the Book of Genesis. She is identified as a concubine of Nahor, Abraham's brother. Reumah bore Nahor four children: Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah. This brief mention is found in Genesis 22:24, which states: "Moreover, his concubine, whose name was Reumah, bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah." Reumah's inclusion in the genealogical record highlights the extended family of Nahor and provides insight into the broader familial connections of the patriarchal narratives. Her name, meaning "elevated" or "exalted," may reflect a status or characteristic attributed to her within the narrative context.
