Hitchcock's compendium of Bible names and their definitions demystifies the meanings of every Bible name from A to Z - thus, it is a superb reference manual for spiritual study. A good supplement to Biblical studies, Hitchcock's book lists the meanings behind the various names. This allows readers to discover the etymological origins of the most famous figures in the Bible, place these names in their proper context, and thus perform readings of the holy scripture from a more informed perspective. Many of the names pertain directly to the qualities of their holders. For example the name Behemoth from the Book of Job simply means 'monstrous', while the name 'Iscariot' (as in Judas Iscariot) means 'a man of murder; a hireling'. Other names are however more nuanced - the name 'Baal' means 'master, or lord', contrasting the demonic connotations applied by 17th century Gothic fiction.

Your own relationship with God will be enriched as you gain in-depth understanding of the meanings of biblical names. Whether you are looking for a biblical name for your child, or doing in-depth research, this book of scriptural treasures will have what you are looking for — and more. Every biblical name and its various shades of Greek or Hebrew meanings The nearly 40 self-revealing names for God The 275 descriptive titles for Jesus The 100 scriptural designations for Christians In western culture we seldom pay attention to the meanings of names. However, we often give people nicknames based on their personalities and character traits. In a similar way, names given in biblical times had much to say about the character, prophetic calling, or circumstances at the time of a person's birth. For instance, Jacob’s name (he stole the firstborn blessing from Esau) means "supplanter" (or trickster). God later changed his name to “Israel,” which means, “He will be a prince with God” or “One who prevails with God.” In the final book of the Bible, one of the promises given to overcomers is that they will be given “a new name.” (See Revelation 2:17.) It is very clear that names are important! Grow in your knowledge of God’s nature and character. Have a greater understanding of Scripture. Find a biblical name with specific meaning and purpose for your child.
