NAAMAN @ chief captain of Ben-hadad, healed of leprosy by Elisha- kjv@2Kings:5:1; kjv@Luke:4:27

smith:

NAAM - N>@ - (pleasantness), one of the sons of Caleb the son of Jephunneh. ( kjv@1Chronicles:4:15) (B.C. about 1451-1420.)

NAAMAH - N>@ - (loveliness). One of the four women whose names are preserved in the records of the world before the flood; all except Eve being Cainites. Site was daughter of Lamech by his wife Zillah, and sister, as is expressly mentioned to Tubal-cain kjv@Genesis:4:22) only. (B.C. about 3550.) Mother of King Rehoboam. (Kings:14:21-31; kjv@2Chronicles:12:13) In each of these passages she is distinguished by the title "the (not ’an,’ as in Authorized Version) Ammonite." She was therefore one of the foreign women whom Solomon took into his establishment. (Kings:11:1) (B.C. 1015-975.)

NAAMAH - N>@ - one of the towns of Judah in the district of the lowland or Shefelah. kjv@Joshua:15:41) Capt. Warren, in Report of Palestine Exploration Fund , 1871, locates it at Naameh , six miles northeast of Yebna.

NAAMAN - N>@ - (pleasantness). "Naaman the Syrian." kjv@Luke:4:27) Naaman was commander-in-chief of the army of Syria, and was nearest to the person of the king, Ben-hadad II., whom he accompanied officially and supported when he went to worship in the temple of Rimmon, ( kjv@2Kings:5:18) at Damascus, the capital. (B.C. 885.) A Jewish tradition at least as old as the time of Josephus, and which may very well be a genuine one identifies him with the archer whose arrow, whether at random or not, struck Ahab with his mortal wound, and thus "gave deliverance to Syria." The expression in ( kjv@2Kings:5:1) is remarkable
"because that by him Jehovah had given deliverance to Syria." The most natural explanation perhaps is that Naaman in delivering his country, had killed one who was the enemy of Jehovah not less than he was of Syria. Whatever the particular exploit referred to was, it had given Naaman a great position at the court of Ben-hadad. Naaman was afflicted with a leprosy of the white kind which had hitherto defied cure. A little Israelitish captive maiden tells him of the fame and skill of Elisha, and he is cured by him by following his simple directions to bathe in the Jordan seven times.
See ( kjv@2Kings:5:14) His first business after his cure is to thank his benefactor and gratefully acknowledge the power of the God of Israel, and promise "henceforth to offer neither burnt offering nor sacrifice unto other gods, but unto the Lord." How long Naaman lived to continue a worshipper of Jehovah while assisting officially at the worship of Rimmon we are not told; ("but his memory is perpetuated by a leper hospital which occupies the traditional site of his house in Damascus, on the banks of the Abana."
Schaff.) One of the family of Benjamin who came down to Egypt with Jacob as read in kjv@Genesis:46:21) He was the son of Bela, and head of the family of the Naamites. kjv@Numbers:26:40; kjv@1Chronicles:8:3-4) (B.C. 1706.)

NAAMATHITE - N>@ - the Gentile name of one of Job’s friends, Zophar the Naamathite. kjv@Job:2:11 kjv@Job:11:1 kjv@Job:20:1 ; 42:9) There is no other trace of this name in the Bible, and the town whence it is derived is unknown. (But as Uz was in Arabia, probably the Naamah where he lived was on the Arabian borders of Syria.)

NAAMITES, THE - N>@ - the family descended from Naaman, the grandson of Benjamin. kjv@Numbers:28:40) only.

Naam @ pleasantness, one of the three sons of Caleb, the son of Jephunneh ( kjv@1Chronicles:4:15).

Naamah @ the beautiful.

(1.) The daughter of Lamech and Zillah kjv@Genesis:4:22).

(2.) The daughter of the king of Ammon, one of the wives of Solomon, the only one who appears to have borne him a son, viz., Rehoboam (kjvKings:14:21-31).

(3.) A city in the plain of Judah kjv@Joshua:15:41), supposed by some to be identified with Na'aneh, some 5 miles south-east of Makkedah.

Naaman @ pleasantness, a Syrian, the commander of the armies of Benhadad II. in the time of Joram, king of Israel. He was afflicted with leprosy; and when the little Hebrew slave-girl that waited on his wife told her of a prophet in Samaria who could cure her master, he obtained a letter from Benhadad and proceeded with it to Joram. The king of Israel suspected in this some evil design against him, and rent his clothes. Elisha the prophet hearing of this, sent for Naaman, and the strange interview which took place is recorded in kjv@2Kings:5. The narrative contains all that is known of the Syrian commander. He was cured of his leprosy by dipping himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the word of Elisha. His cure is alluded to by our Lord kjv@Luke:4:27).

Naamathite @ the designation of Zophar, one of Job's three friends kjv@Job:2:11 kjv@Job:11:1), so called from some place in Arabia, called Naamah probably.
