However, genealogical names in the Greek New Testament, such as those found in the genealogies of Jesus in Matthew 1 and Luke 3, serve a similar purpose in tracing lineage.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Chamul is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It is the name of a descendant of Judah, specifically a grandson through Judah's son Perez.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the genealogical records of the tribes of Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes reflective of circumstances surrounding a birth or the character hoped for in the child. The name Chamul, derived from a root meaning "to spare" or "to have compassion," may suggest a family hope or prayer for divine mercy or compassion. The genealogies in which Chamul appears are crucial for understanding the lineage of the tribe of Judah, from which King David and ultimately Jesus Christ descended.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/2550.htm">chamal</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"spared," grandson of Judah<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Hamul (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">חָמוּל</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> (<em>spared</em>);
