עמיאל

Amiel is an ancient and moving Hebrew name, composed of two meaningful elements: "ami" - my people, and "El" - God. The literal meaning of the name is "God is my people" or "my people is God," expressing a deep and personal connection between the bearer and the Divine. This is a name that conveys a profound sense of spiritual belonging, steadfast faith, and an intimate relationship with Jewish sources. The name appears in the Bible and carries significant historical and spiritual weight. In the Hebrew Bible, Amiel son of Gemalli from the tribe of Dan is mentioned as one of the twelve spies sent by Moses to scout the land of Canaan before the Israelites' entry into the Promised Land. He appears in the Book of Numbers (13:12) as his tribe's representative in this crucial historical mission. Although the Torah does not elaborate on his personality or specific actions, his very selection for such a significant role testifies to his standing and the public's trust in him. The name Amiel thus carries the historical memory of the wilderness period, the search for a national homeland, and faith in the Divine promise. In traditional Jewish culture, names containing the element "El" are considered to possess special sanctity, as they directly reference the name of God. Amiel is a name that radiates humility alongside pride - humility in recognizing that the individual is part of a greater people and that God is the guide and leader, and pride in belonging to the chosen people and in the direct connection to the Creator. Throughout the generations, the name was popular primarily among religious and traditional families, but in recent years it has been spreading among the broader public as part of the return to biblically meaningful names. Bearers of the name Amiel tend to be people with deep values, connected to tradition and appreciative of their cultural and spiritual roots.
