What are Baptism & baptised in Hebrew ?

Question

And what " Homed" means exactly in Hebrew ?

Yes , I guess it's Chomed , not homed !

Answer 1

Well, like everyone said correctly, there is no matching term in the Jewish life for baptism and baptized. The nearest Jewish ritual to baptizing is the Mikveh (מקוה), which is a place were the Jewish women wash themselves for purity.
However, we do have a word in Hebrew that refers to the Christian ritual: Hatbalah (הטבלה) that means baptizing, or baptism (literally: dipping).

"Chomed", or "homed" (חומד) is a colloquial term for "darling", "dear", "sweetie".
It comes from the root ch.m.d, which means "covet", so "chomed" is something or someone who is coveted by others.

Answer 2

Jews do not have an equivalent to baptism.

The nearest is the immersion in the mikveh.

I've never come across the word "homed". Do you know the Hebrew spelling of the word?

Chomed sounds like it would mean desire. Like chemdas yomim, the desired of days

Answer 3

The priest of the Levi tribe were washed in water before they could become a priest. That is why John the Baptist came baptizing to make the whole Nation of Israel a kingdom of priest. Exodus 40: 12 And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water. Exodus 19: 6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.

Answer 4

"Chomed" means greedy.

"Baptizo" is a Greek word that is roughly equivalent to the Hebrew word "mikvah," or ritual immersion.

Answer 5

If you're referring to judaism, there is no such thing as baptism. As for that translation, I couldn't tell you. But it's not necessrily Hebrew. It could be Aramaic.

Answer 6

im not sure but i think it means to submerge
