BellaOnline Forums Family Christian Living The Name Game!

Matthew - Former tax collector and disciple of Jesus.

Janet, you may have won the game! I'm stumped for person in the Bible who's name begins with W !
So unles someone can come up with a W name, I'll have to think up a new game.

Holy cow, I can't think of anyone who's name begins with W, either!

Don't do a new game, Lynne! This is fun! I'll just come up with another name and we'll start over. (If that's OK with you. <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> )

Luke- Physician; Disciple of Jesus

I thought that guy was called "Lucas" in English...

Ok, then. Emmanuel (one of the names of Jesus)

Lydia - seller of purple - an example of a successful woman in Biblical times. One of the first baptised by Paul in Macedonia.

Lynne, I used Lydia on page 2. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

OOPS
Linus - One of Paul's friends who sent greetings to Timothy in 2 Timothy.

Silas - Paul's buddy and cellmate. Had a heckuva miracle in prison!

Salmon -- an ancestor of Boaz and King David and mentioned in the geneology of Jesus.

<img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> I always get a kick out of his name!

Nathaniel - The guy that said "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?", to which Jesus replied "Here is truly an Israelite in whom there is no deceit!"

Love it!
