Strong's Lexicon Yaqim: Yaqim Original Word: יָקִים Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Yaqiym Pronunciation: yah-KEEM Phonetic Spelling: (yaw-keem') Definition: Yaqim Meaning: Jakim Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root קוּם (qum), meaning "to rise" or "to establish." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Yaqim in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper Hebrew name. However, the concept of "establishing" or "raising up" can be related to Greek words like ἀνίστημι (anistēmi - Strong's Greek 450), which means "to raise up" or "to stand up." Usage: The name Yaqim means "he will establish" or "he will raise up." It is used as a proper name for a male individual in the Hebrew Bible. The name reflects a sense of establishment or raising up, often associated with divine action or purpose. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, names were often given with the hope or prayer that the individual would embody the meaning of their name. The root קוּם (qum) is significant in the Hebrew Bible, frequently used in contexts where God establishes or raises up individuals, nations, or structures. The name Yaqim would have carried connotations of divine support and establishment, reflecting a belief in God's active role in the lives of His people.
