| Résumé : |
Bible names, though generally untranslated in Scripture, do have meanings, and in some cases the sense of an entire passage is clarified when the significance of a name is known.
The author points out in his Preface that there is spiritual truth to be gleaned from the exact, literal meaning of Scripture names, and in many instances considerable importance is attached to their meaning. He gives three examples of this: (1) On the imposition of a name, as in Isaac (Genesis 17:19) and Jesus (Matthew 1:21); (2) On the change of a name, as in Abram (Genesis 17:5) and Jacob (Genesis 32:28); (3) On the play of a name, as in Jeremiah 1:11-12, where the play is on a word which is obscured in our English Bible, and in Ezekiel 23:4. In this volume J. B. Jackson provides an alphabetical list of Scripture’s proper names, with the true literal translation from the original of each name, with the hope that it may help to remove, in some measure at least, the veil which our confused speech has put upon God’s precious Word. |
