Greene's Dictionary of Bible Names (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781937199883)

This dictionary exhaustively defines every proper name in the Bible to help uncover hidden truths found in God's Holy Word. In contemporary Western culture, personal names are little more than labels that distinguish one person from another, but in Biblical times, a person's name had a much deeper significance. A name in Scripture is often significant of the nature or character of a person, whether it be a person, angel or God Himself. This would apply to cities or places as well, where the name would give the revelation of the combined total nature or character of the people that lived there. God uses names to give us hidden revelation concerning His marvelous truth in the Word. Knowing the definition of the name of something can unlock great hidden truths and revelation that God intends for us to find. The author's earnest desire and hope is that this resource placed in your hands will revolutionize the way you read, teach, preach, and receive from GOD when it comes to names in Scripture.
