Isaiah’s two
sons were named by the Lord. “Things are
going to get very bad” and “Things are going to get a lot better,” were the two
names…really. My interpretations are
pretty close. One name,
Maher-shalal-hash-baz, is named for the destruction and captivity of Israel by Assyria. The other name, Shearjashub, is named for when Israel
is freed from bondage and gathered in.
We have named our children after our parents, close friends, or because
we just liked the name. We love each of
our children and grandchildren and we honor their sacred names.
