List of Biblical names

(Redirected from List of Biblical names starting with A)

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 noun, which may be: people, places, cities, countries, angels, gods, mountains, etc.

• Some people of the Biblical period are not listed here, because their names are not in the canonical 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.

Note:The actual name of the Hebrew God (Jehovah/Yahweh) has been entered instead of "LORD". The name of the Hebrew God is usually found in Hebrew names as "iah" or "jah" in the anglicized form. The substitution of the word "lord" is inaccurate as the Hebrew word for lord is "adhohn",or "adhonim" "adhonai" and "god" is "el", "elim", or "elohim". See ‎Tetragrammaton.
