This term is used in passages such as Matthew 22:14 (BSB), "For many are called, but few are chosen."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The term "Bacharumi" is used to denote individuals or groups that have been specifically chosen or selected for a particular purpose or role. This concept of being chosen is central to the understanding of God's relationship with His people, as it reflects divine election and purpose.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, the idea of being chosen by God was deeply significant. It was not merely about privilege but also about responsibility and service. The Israelites saw themselves as God's chosen people, set apart to fulfill His purposes on earth. This concept is rooted in the covenantal relationship established between God and Abraham and later reaffirmed through Moses and the giving of the Law.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>probably from <a href="/hebrew/980.htm">Bachurim</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>inhab. of Bacharum<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Baharumite (1), Barhumite (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">בַּחֲרוּמִי</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective, of a people</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>Baharumite</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/11-33.htm">1 Chronicles 11:33</a> = <font class="hebrew2">בַּרְחֻמִי</font> <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/23-31.htm">2 Samuel 23:31</a>.
