It is associated with one of the descendants of Esau, the brother of Jacob. The name may imply a connection to a place of pressing, such as a winepress, which could suggest a location or occupation related to agriculture or viticulture.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near East, names often held significant meanings and were sometimes indicative of a person's character, occupation, or the circumstances of their birth. Gatam, as a descendant of Esau, is part of the Edomite lineage. The Edomites were a group of people who lived in the region south of the Dead Sea and were often in conflict with the Israelites. Understanding the genealogies of Esau's descendants provides insight into the complex relationships and tensions between the Edomites and the Israelites.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain derivation<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>an Edomite<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Gatam (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">גַּעְתָּם</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>a chief of Edom, son of Eliphaz</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/36-11.htm">Genesis 36:11,16</a>;
