Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "Shuchami" as it is a specific Hebrew clan name. However, genealogical terms and clan names in the Greek Septuagint may use general terms like φυλή (phylē) for tribe or γένος (genos) for family.

Usage: The term "Shuchami" refers to a descendant or member of the family of Shucham. In the context of the Bible, it is used to denote a clan or group of people who are descendants of Shucham, who was a son of Dan according to some genealogical records.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Israelite context, tribal and familial affiliations were significant for identity, inheritance, and social structure. The Shuchamites would have been recognized as part of the tribe of Dan, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. This tribal identity played a crucial role in the division of land, military organization, and religious duties.
