Just a short post today. I find names to be fascinating in the Bible. Quite often there is overlap with names that we might not even realize if we don't look at the history and the meaning of the names. One such example is that the name Jesus was the modernized version of the name Joshua. (Isaiah also comes from the same roots.)
Two names I want to point out that I find remarkably similar:
Aaron = "light bringer"
Luke* = "light giving"
*The word in the Greek texts is always "Lucas" as refered to in 2 Corinthians 13:14, Colosians 4:14, 2 Timothy 4:11, and Philemon 1:24.
God bless.
