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.
