He is a significant figure in the Old Testament narrative found in 2 Kings 5, where he is described as a valiant warrior who suffered from leprosy. His account is a powerful testament to faith, humility, and the healing power of God.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Naaman lived during the time of the prophet Elisha, around the 9th century BC. As a high-ranking military official in the Aramean army, Naaman held a position of great influence and power. Despite his status, he was afflicted with leprosy, a condition that carried social stigma and isolation. The cultural context of the time viewed leprosy as not only a physical ailment but also a spiritual impurity. Naaman's journey to Israel and his subsequent healing by the prophet Elisha highlight the intersection of faith and cultural barriers, as well as the sovereignty of the God of Israel over all nations.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>variant reading for <a href="/greek/3483b.htm">Naiman</a>, q.v.<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">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 3497: Ναιμάν</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Ναιμάν</span></span>, see <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">Νημαν</span></span>. <p><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 3497: Νημαν</span><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Νημαν</span></span> and (so <span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span> after the <span class="manuref">Sept.</span> (see <span class="manuref">WH</span>'s Appendix, p. 159f)) <span class="greek2">Ναιμάν</span>, <span class="greek2">ὁ</span> (<span class="hebrew">נַעֲמָן</span>, pleasantness), <span class="accented">Naaman</span> (so <span class="manuref">Vulg.</span> (also <span class="accented">Neman</span>)), a commander of the Syrian armies (<a href="/interlinear/2_kings/5-1.htm">2 Kings 5:1</a>): <a href="/interlinear/luke/4-27.htm">Luke 4:27</a>.<FOOTNOTE:1> <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Naaman. <p>Of Hebrew origin (<a href="/hebrew/5283.htm">Na'aman</a>);
