What Original Readers Understood
Supported# Almon (H5964G) Based on the lexical data provided, עַלְמוֹן (Almon) appears in the Hebrew Bible only once, making it a hapax legomenon—a word that occurs a single time. The lemma is classified as a proper noun, specifically a place name rather than a common word with semantic range or conceptual meaning. Given its single occurrence and designation as a proper noun, Almon refers to a specific geographic location rather than conveying a general concept or meaning. This status as a hapax legomenon means that establishing nuanced understanding of the word's significance or cultural resonance depends entirely on its immediate textual context—information not provided in the lexicon data itself. Without additional contextual details, the significance of this place name within biblical geography or narrative cannot be determined from this data alone.
