Her account is significant in the prophetic narrative as it symbolizes Israel's unfaithfulness to God. Hosea's marriage to Gomer, who is described as a woman of harlotry, serves as a living parable of God's relationship with Israel.<p> - <b>Gomer as a People Group:</b> Gomer is also the name of a son of Japheth, one of Noah's sons, mentioned in the Table of Nations in Genesis 10. The descendants of Gomer are traditionally associated with the Cimmerians, an ancient people who lived in what is now southern Russia and Ukraine.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/1584.htm">gamar</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a son of Japheth, also his desc., also the wife of Hosea<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Gomer (6).<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">גֹּ֫מָר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name</b></font> <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1.masculine a.</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>son of Japhet</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/10-2.htm">Genesis 10:2</a>,3= <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/1-5.htm">1 Chronicles 1:5,6</a>; <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/38-6.htm">Ezekiel 38:6</a>; Lag<sup>Onom.
