It means "son of the elder" or "son of the Sabbath." The name is associated with two early followers of Jesus: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Judas called Barsabbas.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the first-century Jewish context, names often carried significant meaning, reflecting family heritage or personal characteristics. The use of Aramaic, the common language of the Jewish people in Palestine during this period, indicates the Jewish roots of the individuals named Barsabbas. The name suggests a connection to Jewish tradition and possibly a family of some standing or age.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of Aramaic origin<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"son of Sabba," Barsabbas, the surname of two Isr.
