However, the Greek word "κύμινον" (kuminon) in the New Testament (e.g., Matthew 23:23) refers to cumin and is related in meaning.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The term "kammon" refers to the plant known as cumin, which is a small annual herb with aromatic seeds. In the Bible, it is used to describe the seeds that are harvested and used as a spice. Cumin is mentioned in the context of agricultural practices and is noted for its value as a seasoning.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Cumin was a common spice in the ancient Near East, valued for its distinctive flavor and aroma. It was used in cooking and possibly for medicinal purposes. In biblical times, cumin was cultivated and harvested in a manner similar to other grains and spices. The process of threshing cumin was different from that of wheat or barley, as it required a gentler method to avoid crushing the seeds.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain derivation<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>cummin (a plant grown as a condiment)<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>cummin (3).<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">כַּמֹּן</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>cummin</b></font>, plant grown as condiment (<font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">κύμινον</font>, <em>cuminum cyminum</em>;
