What's in a Name?
I'm currently taking Old Testament and have, obviously, been reading a lot. One thing that has caught my attention and really interested me is the meaning behind the names in the Bible and how it portrayed some aspect of their life or how they were conceived. Like Jonathan means "the Lord has given or giver" and to see how much Jonathan gave in his friendship with David. Sarah means "princess", Joshua means "the Lord saves", Samson means "sun" or "brightness". Kinda makes me wish I had a biblical name. I think I'll look more into the meanings of names when I have kids someday and am figuring out names. Kinda cool eh?
