In the Bible, names were chosen to communicate something about a person, especially God's names--they reveal his identity. This book groups 140 names into eight sections: Almighty, Father, Redeemer, Shepherd, Spirit, Truth, Defender, Faithful. Each artfully designed page includes English and Hebrew names, an English transliteration, and relevant Bible passages.
