Genesis Thirty-Five - Name Variations


"Now it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said to her, 'Do not fear; you will have this son also.' And so it was, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she called his name Ben-Oni; but his father called him Benjamin," Genesis 35:17-18, NKJV. #NameVariations
Because of word variations, translation inconsistencies and differences in interpretation, finding the exact names of people and places over time, and often their meanings, is a difficult task; nevertheless, the Lord planned it this way when He originally separated the people and confused their language during the construction of the tower of Babel.
Exodus 17:6-7, Mark 15:33-35 and Revelation 9:11.
