His name appears in the Old Testament, specifically in the First Book of Chronicles. The name "Appaim" is of Hebrew origin, and while its exact meaning is not definitively known, it is often associated with the idea of "nostrils" or "face," which can metaphorically imply anger or passion.<br><br><b>Biblical References:</b><br><br>1. <b><a href="/1_chronicles/2-30.htm">1 Chronicles 2:30-31</a> :</b> Appaim is listed in the genealogies of the descendants of Judah. The passage states: "The sons of Nadab: Seled and Appaim. Seled died without children. The son of Appaim: Ishi." This brief mention places Appaim within the lineage of Jerahmeel, a descendant of Judah, highlighting his role in the continuation of this family line.<br><br>2. <b>Genealogical Context:</b> Appaim is part of the genealogical record that traces the lineage of the tribe of Judah, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. This tribe holds significant importance in biblical history, as it is the tribe from which King David and, ultimately, Jesus Christ are descended. The genealogies in 1 Chronicles serve to establish the historical and theological foundations of the Davidic line.<br><br><b>Historical and Theological Significance:</b><br><br>· <b>Lineage of Judah:</b> The tribe of Judah is central to the biblical narrative, and the genealogies in 1 Chronicles emphasize the continuity and faithfulness of God's promises to His people. Appaim's inclusion in this lineage underscores the importance of each individual in the unfolding of God's redemptive plan.<br><br>· <b>Role in Scripture:</b> Although Appaim himself is not a prominent figure in biblical accounts, his mention in the genealogies serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness of God's people and the meticulous record-keeping that was valued in ancient Israelite culture. Each name in these genealogies represents a link in the chain of God's covenantal promises.<br><br>· <b>Symbolic Meaning:</b> The name Appaim, with its potential connotations of "nostrils" or "face," may symbolically reflect the human emotions and characteristics that are part of the biblical narrative. In the broader context of Scripture, names often carry deeper meanings that relate to the individual's role or the circumstances of their life.<br><br><b>Cultural and Religious Context:</b><br><br>· <b>Genealogical Importance:</b> In ancient Israel, genealogies were crucial for establishing identity, inheritance rights, and tribal affiliations. They provided a sense of continuity and connection to the past, reinforcing the community's shared history and divine purpose.<br><br>· <b>Theological Implications:</b> The genealogies in 1 Chronicles, including the mention of Appaim, highlight the faithfulness of God in preserving His chosen people. They serve as a testament to God's sovereignty and His ability to work through generations to fulfill His promises.<br><br>In summary, Appaim, though a minor figure in the biblical narrative, is part of the rich tapestry of genealogical records that underscore the importance of lineage and heritage in the biblical worldview. His mention in 1 Chronicles contributes to the broader understanding of God's unfolding plan for His people through the tribe of Judah.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Appaim</span><p>face; nostrils<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Appaim</span><p>or <i>Appaim</i> (<i>the nostrils</i>), son of Nadab, and descended from Jerahmeel, the founder of an important family of the tribe of Judah.
