There are so many names in this reading. Places, people, God. It made me think how sometimes, after something bad has happened to a certain person or at a certain place, that the name is tainted in our thought. Any time we hear the name, even unrelated, we thing of that awful, sad event.
The thing I like about the dual definitions is that a person or place can be redeemed in our thought. That the negative connotation can be removed by looking toward the spiritual and away from the past.
I need a good online source for Bible Characters that is non-denominational. Do you use one you would recommend?
