List of Biblical names

From Academic Kids

This is a list of names from the Bible, taken from the 19th century public domain resource:

Hitchcock's New and Complete Analysis of the Holy Bible by Roswell D. Hitchcock, New York: A. J. Johnson, 1874, c1869.

Each name is given with its meaning. Please note that "names" refers to any name, which may be: people, places, cities, countries, angels, gods, mountains, etc.

• Some people of the Biblical time aren't listed here, because their names are not in the canonized Bible. See list of names for the Biblical nameless.
• Sometimes the same name refers to several individuals in the Bible, for example there are three people named Joseph.
