Transliteration: tamim

Definition: Complete, whole, perfect, blameless, without blemish

Word Origin: Derived from the root תָּמַם (tamam), meaning "to be complete" or "to be finished."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G5046 (τέλειος, teleios): Often translated as "perfect" or "complete," used in the New Testament to describe spiritual maturity and completeness in Christ.

- G299 (ἄμωμος, amōmos): Meaning "without blemish," used to describe Christ as the perfect sacrifice.

Usage: The Hebrew word "tamim" conveys the idea of completeness, integrity, and moral perfection. It is often used to describe something that is whole or without defect. In the context of people, it refers to moral integrity and uprightness. In the context of sacrificial offerings, it denotes an animal without blemish, suitable for offering to God.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the concept of "tamim" was integral to both religious and ethical life. Sacrificial animals had to be "tamim" to be acceptable to God, symbolizing purity and holiness. This requirement underscored the importance of offering one's best to God. In terms of personal character, being "tamim" was associated with living a life of integrity and faithfulness to God's commandments, reflecting the covenant relationship between God and His people.
