Biblical Names And Their Meanings
$4.99
Did you know the Bible contains more than 3,000 names, including names of God, people, places, and nations or people groups? That’s a lot of names! Often a person’s name describes their characteristics. For example, the name Esau sounds like a Hebrew word meaning “hair” or “hairy.” Other times, a person’s name may describe circumstances surrounding their birth or hopes for their destiny.
Bibles sometimes have footnotes indicating the meaning of names, but what if you could access a comprehensive list of this information at your fingertips? Rose Publishing’s newest reference pamphlet, Biblical Names and Their Meanings, offers exactly that. Covering the Old and New Testaments, readers will enjoy learning the meaning and significance of 100 biblical names. Each entry includes the name in the original biblical language, the meaning, the pronunciation, a short description, and Scripture references. Sample entry:
Jacob
??????? (yah-ak-ove’)
Gen. 25:26
“He grabs by the heel.” Jacob was born grasping his twin brother Esau’s heel. Taken in a nonliteral sense, this phrase means “supplanter” or “deceiver.” This description fits Jacob’s actions later in his life.

Mothers And Daughters Of The Bible Speak (Large Type)
$28.99God always keeps His promises, but not always in the way we expect….
“Have faith” is a phrase we hear all the time. But what does it actually look like to live it out? In The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream examines the lives of biblical women to see how God’s plans can turn our worlds upside down. She tells the story of Jochebed, a mother who took enormous risks to protect her son, Moses, from Pharaoh. Could Jochebed have imagined that God’s actual design for her son involved flight into exile and danger? And yet this was all part of the master plan to deliver Israel from slavery. Another biblical mother, Rebekah, made terrible choices in an attempt to ensure her son’s place in history. And a daughter, Michal, struggled to keep her faithless father, Saul, from sin, while battling pride in herself.
Through these stories, Shannon explains the intimate connection between faith and family–and how God’s unexpected agenda can redefine the way we think about family. Not all of these mothers and daughters in the Bible were paragons of virtue. Like us, they were human beings who faltered and struggled to do their best. While some heard God’s voice, others chose their own paths. Through the lens of their imperfections, we can see how God used their stories to bring about His divine plans. He’s still doing the same work in our lives today.
The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak shows that faith is more often a twisting road than a straight line. Yet, as the stories of biblical families attest, at the end of these journeys lies greater peace and joy than we could ever imagine.
