Summary
zaman is rendered "to appoint". It stands 3 times in the Hebrew text, across two books.
- Two of the uses stand in Nehemiah, more than in any other book.
- Its first use in canonical order opens the ledger below.Ezra 10:14Let our leaders represent the whole assembly. Then let everyone in our towns who has married a foreign woman come at an appointed time, together with the elders and judges of each town, until the fierce anger of our God in this matter is turned away from us.”
- The Greek text spells it three different ways.
The first use
Let our leaders represent the whole assembly. Then let everyone in our towns who has married a foreign woman come at an appointed time, together with the elders and judges of each town, until the fierce anger of our God in this matter is turned away from us.”
Ezra 10:14מְזֻמָּנִ֔ים
The first use, in the order of the Old Testament's books.

How the numbers are counted
Every count on this page comes from STEP Bible's tagged Hebrew and Greek text, the same text the ledger prints. A use is counted once each time the tagging marks a word with this key.
Spellings are counted as the Greek text spells them, with the sentence's own punctuation taken off the word first, so a form that ends a clause is not counted as a second spelling.
The family is read from the lexicon by the stem the two words share, with the accents off, and a person or a place named on the stem is left out.
