I have been doing a study though the Bible by J. Vernon McGee...something struck me a while back regarding the names in the Bible and the meaning of the names...Here are a few that I want to share:
The meaning to Zachariah's name, His father, Berechiah and his grandfather, Iddo.
3rd Generation: Zacariah, means," Whom Jehovah Remembers"
2nd Generation: Berechiah, means,"Jehovah Blesses"
1st Generation: Iddo, means,"The appointed time"
Put it together and you get: "The appointed time, Jehovah blesses, whom Jehovah Remembers"
Nahum means "Comforter"
Habakkuk means "Loves embrace"
Malachi means "My messenger"
Has anyone done a study on this? I think this would be an awesome study!
