A name Isaiah was commanded first to write in large characters on a tablet, and afterwards to give as a symbolical name to a son that was to be born to him (Isa. 8:1, 3), as denoting the sudden attack on Damascus and Syria by the Assyrian army.
I wished I could pronounce his name correctly. How I remember his name was when Becky Hinckley placed his name on my back and I had to guess who "I" am! Remember during one of our Wamava retreat, everyone had to remember their bible name on the back. ;)
Then Becky gave me a challenge. When everyone looked at it, they laughed in my face! Geez, man! That helped me remember:
Mahershalalhashbaz!! :)
Anyways, I'm only guessing here:
Ma-her-sha-lal-hash-baz
This is how I'm pronouncing it.
Thanks for the link, bro!
Have you made any new posts on your blog? Been looking into it but none since March. ;)
