Hanamel, Jeremiah's cousin who sold him a field in Anathoth as a sign of hope during the siege of Jerusalem
A personal name meaning 'God is gracious' (from hanan + El). Hanamel was Jeremiah's cousin (ben-dod), the son of Shallum, who approached the prophet to sell him a field in Anathoth during the Babylonian siege of Jerusalem (Jer 32:7-12). The purchase became a powerful prophetic sign that houses, fields, and vineyards would again be bought in the land. The Septuagint renders the name as Anameel.
Senses
1. sense 1 — The personal name of Jeremiah's cousin, son of his uncle Shallum. All four occurrences cluster in Jeremiah 32:7-12, where Hanamel comes to the imprisoned prophet requesting he exercise his right of redemption (ge'ullah) over a field in Anathoth. The multilingual glosses uniformly transliterate: English 'Chanamel,' Spanish 'Janameel,' French 'Hanameel,' reflecting the compound theophoric name meaning 'God has been gracious.' 4×
