Metaphysical meaning of Jerahmeel (mbd)
Jerahmeel, je-räh'-me-el (Heb.)--whom God loves; on whom God has mercy; to whom God shows compassion; mother love of God.
a Son of Hezron, who was a grandson of Judah (I Chron. 2:9). b Son of Kish, of the tribe of Levi (I Chron. 24:29). c "The king's son," one of those who were sent to arrest Baruch and Jeremiah (Jer. 36:26).
Meta. The true idea of God as a loving and compassionate father, mother, friend, and almighty resource, and not as an angry, revengeful deity. (When the personal man gets hold of this idea he is likely to carry it to an extreme by thinking that he can do anything that he wishes to do, even to the point of working directly against the divine law, and still reap only good.)
