"Let’s call him Swifty" by Stephen M. Miller
At God’s command, the prophet Isaiah named one of his sons Maher-shalal-hash-baz. That’s Hebrew for “swift to plunder and quick to spoil,” prediction of what invaders would do to the Jews of Samaria. We can only hope they gave the boy a nickname. Maybe Swifty. Strange and Mysterious Stuff in the Bible, p. 139.
The post Let’s call him Swifty appeared first on Stephen M. Miller.
