Sounds Like: gah-mah-LEE-tai
Translations: Gamalitai, people of Gamala, followers of Gamaliel
From the root: ΓΑΜΑΛΙΤΑΙ
Part of Speech: Proper Noun
Explanation: This word appears to be a proper noun, likely referring to inhabitants of a place called Gamala or possibly followers of a person named Gamaliel. However, the spelling "ΓΑΜΑΛΙΤΑΙ" is not standard in Koine Greek texts for either of these meanings. It is highly probable that this is a misspelling of "ΓΑΛΙΛΑΙΟΙ" (Galilaios), meaning "Galileans," which would fit the context of the provided example usage. If it is indeed "ΓΑΜΑΛΙΤΑΙ," it would refer to a group of people associated with 'Gamala' or 'Gamaliel'.
