Togarmah Togarmah

Togarmah is a son of Gomer, son of Japheth, son of Noah.

At the heart of the name Togarmah sits the noun garam (gerem 382a), bone, which figuratively is used to mean self or strength. As a verb garam (garam 382b) means break or crush bones (Num 24:8). And the root-verb of both, garam (garam 382) means lay aside or save, as used only in Zeph 3:3 (they leave nothing for the morning).

The name Togarmah may mean Bone Breaker.
