In the cultural context of the ancient Near East, names often carried significant meaning and were sometimes prophetic or indicative of the parents' hopes for the child. The dove is a symbol of peace and the Holy Spirit in the Bible, as seen in the account of Noah's Ark (<a href="/genesis/8-8.htm">Genesis 8:8-12</a>) and the baptism of Jesus (<a href="/matthew/3-16.htm">Matthew 3:16</a>). Jemimah's name may reflect the restoration and peace that Job experienced after his trials, aligning with the theme of divine restoration and blessing.<p><b>his second Keziah</b><br>Keziah is a name that means "cassia," a type of spice similar to cinnamon, known for its fragrance and value. In biblical times, spices were highly prized and often used in anointing oils and perfumes, as seen in <a href="/exodus/30-24.htm">Exodus 30:24</a>.
