Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • The Greek equivalent for the concept of "east" or "eastern" can be found in Strong's Greek entries such as 395 (ἀνατολή, anatolē), which also refers to the east or the rising of the sun. This term is used in the New Testament to describe the direction of the east or the coming of light, paralleling the Hebrew usage of קַדְמוֹן.

Usage: The word קַדְמוֹן is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote the direction of the east or to describe something that is ancient or from the past. It is often used in geographical contexts to refer to eastern regions or peoples.

Context: • The term קַדְמוֹן appears in various contexts within the Hebrew Bible, primarily to denote the direction of the east. It is used to describe geographical locations, such as the "eastern" lands or peoples who reside in the east. The east is often associated with the rising of the sun, symbolizing beginnings or origins. In some instances, קַדְמוֹן is used metaphorically to refer to ancient times or things that are old, emphasizing the concept of something that has been established from the earliest times.
• In the Berean Standard Bible, the term is translated as "eastern" in passages that describe the orientation or location of certain regions or peoples. For example, in Genesis 25:6, it refers to the "land of the east" where Abraham sent his sons by his concubines.
• The concept of the east in biblical literature often carries symbolic meanings, such as the source of light and life, as well as a place of origin or antiquity. This dual significance of direction and time is encapsulated in the use of קַדְמוֹן.
