# Benjamin (בִּנְיָמִין) Based on the lexicon data provided, Benjamin is a proper noun appearing once in the Hebrew Bible. As a proper name rather than a common word, it functions as an identifier rather than conveying semantic meaning through roots or grammatical variation. The single occurrence in the biblical text limits what can be determined about contextual usage patterns or theological significance from the data alone. Without additional contextual information from the lexicon entry itself—such as the specific verse where it appears, associated genealogical relationships, or geographical references—little more can be concluded from this entry. The name appears to have been important enough to include in biblical lexicons, suggesting it held significance in the biblical narrative, but the lexicon data provided does not elaborate on that significance or explain the name's etymological composition.
