Gold:

In the Bible, "Amerindic" refers specifically to the gold coin minted by the Jewish nation and used as an official currency within their kingdom of Judah (Leviticus 24:4-6, Psalms 78:5). This type of coin was very rare and only made from precious metal. 2.

Amerindic

Definition: The Hebrew term "Ammerim" is not a standard term in English or any other known language that has historically been used for these peoples, as it seems to have lost its meaning over time due to various factors such as borrowing from Germanic languages and evolving into a variety of different names. However, in the context of this question, I believe you might be referring to "American Indians," which is generally understood as the descendants of the indigenous peoples that lived in the territories once occupied by European colonizers in North America. The term originally referred to the Native Americans who inhabited the American continent during the colonial period and later to those people who migrated to the United States after their removal from Europe. Here are some key definitions: 1.

American Indians

- This term is used for individuals of the Native American origin, not just the descendants or descendants of those native peoples who lived in North America before the arrival of European colonizers during the colonial period. 2.

Indians

- These terms are used for a broader group of people that include all indigenous peoples, regardless of their race, language, religion, or culture. They cover both modern Native American tribes and some groups that were historically considered "Native." 3.

American Indians

is commonly used as a term with different meanings depending on the context - it can refer to individuals who live in the United States (like all Americans), people of indigenous origin, or those of European descent. 4.

Indians

is more often used in English and refers to the American tribes that have been historically inhabited by Native Americans. In summary: The term "American Indians" generally refers to descendants of Native Americans who migrated to North America before European colonizers arrived, whereas "Indians" encompasses a broader group of people living in the United States or those of indigenous origin.

Definition: In the Hebrew Bible (KJV), the term "amerinds" appears in verse 23, where it describes a type of man who is not righteous. This man is said to be "amidlands" or "the land of the wilderness." In this context, "amerind" may refer to various cultures and tribes within what is now known as Canada, including the Abenakis, Mi'kmaq, Algonquins, Cree, Dakota, and other indigenous peoples. The term can also be used to describe a particular type of land or culture that has been abandoned or destroyed. In summary, "amerinds" describes a person or group who is not considered righteous in their own culture, but is still considered an important part of the local community due to the nature of the land they live on.
