The name Benjamin itself means "son of the right hand," which is reflected in the term "Yamini." It can also imply someone who is right-handed, symbolizing strength and favor, as the right hand was traditionally associated with power and authority in ancient cultures.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The tribe of Benjamin was one of the smaller tribes of Israel, yet it played a significant role in the history of the nation. The Benjamites were known for their skill in battle, particularly their ability to use both hands effectively, as noted in Judges 20:16. The tribe's territory was strategically located between the northern and southern kingdoms, which often placed them at the center of political and military conflicts. The first king of Israel, Saul, was a Benjamite, highlighting the tribe's importance in Israel's early monarchy.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/3226.htm">Yamin</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>desc. of Jamin<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Benjamite* (3), Jaminites (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> II. <font class="hebrew2">יְמִינִי</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective, of a people</b></font> from <font class="hebrew2">בִּנְיָמִן</font>, abbreviated for <font class="hebrew2">בֶּןיְֿמִינִי</font> (q. v.); — <font class="hebrew2">אֶרֶץ יְמִינִי</font> <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/9-4.htm">1 Samuel 9:4</a>; <font class="hebrew2">אִישׁ יְמִינִי</font> <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/20-1.htm">2 Samuel 20:1</a>; <a href="/interlinear/esther/2-5.htm">Esther 2:5</a>; <font class="hebrew2">בֶּןאִֿישׁ יְמִינִי</font> <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/9-1.htm">1 Samuel 9:1</a>. <p> <font class="hebrew2">יָָֽמִינִי</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective, of a people</b></font> of II. <font class="hebrew2">ימין</font> <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1</b></font>; only with article as substantive collective <a href="/interlinear/numbers/26-12.htm">Numbers 26:12</a>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Jaminites <p>Patronymically from <a href="/hebrew/3226.htm">Yamiyn</a>; a Jeminite (collectively) or descendants of Jamin -- Jaminites.
