"Why in the world wou...Shavua tov to you too!<br /><br />"Why in the world would a goy (or a Jew) choose the name Zimri ???! We know what took place with him!!!!"<br /><br />I hear you. I have heard several explanations: The parent likes the name; or the parent doesn't know what s/he's doing (Israeli parents have named their boys "Nimrod" - "we will rebel" - or their girls "Lilith" why???!!!); or there is a mini-prophecy at work and the kid has something connected to it in his neshama. <br /><br />In addition, I've noticed that some goyim love to take Jewish names for their children. Not only Xians, but Muslims also. Daoud, Suleiman, Musa, Yacoub - these are all Arabic versions of Jewish names, and there are many more where these came from.<br /><br />The Xians have been getting bolder lately, even here in Israel. They dress like hassidim or other religious Jews so that they pass for them...until they speak with a person and then, if the person is aware, he can see that they are NOT Jews. But too many are not aware! Their guards are let down because of how people are dressed.<br /><br />Hebrew-aware people know that "boged" (traitor) is related to b'gadim (clothing). Both cover over something they'd rather others not see; but the first is highly negative, while the second is about tsniuth.HDG, Yerushalayim, E"Y Shlemahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10943174572566458612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9075913110117812115.post-3929835736040096292018-12-29T16:18:56.264-08:002018-12-29T16:18:56.264-08:00A gut vok CDG. Thanks for the welcome back. I have...A gut vok CDG. Thanks for the welcome back. I have been busy researching my family tree. One name on my mother’s paternal side has me scratching my head. Why in the world would a goy (or a Jew) choose the name Zimri ???! We know what took place with him!!!! <br /><br />We get missionary CD’s left on our front door in our Yiddish speaking community. I have twice gone behind them to take them away and burn them.<br />GoldieZPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11417548124184678390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9075913110117812115.post-14305875307987642252018-12-28T03:11:52.932-08:002018-12-28T03:11:52.932-08:00Welcome back, Goldie!
