It is commonly used in the Bible to denote lineage or descent, similar to the Hebrew "Ben." This prefix is often found in the New Testament, particularly in the context of names, reflecting the Aramaic influence on the language and culture of the time. Biblical Usage: 1. Barabbas: One of the most notable figures with this prefix is Barabbas, a prisoner mentioned in the Gospels. During the Passover feast, it was customary for the Roman governor to release a prisoner chosen by the crowd. The people chose Barabbas, a known insurrectionist and murderer, over Jesus Christ. This event is recorded in all four Gospels, including <a href="/matthew/27-16.htm">Matthew 27:16-26</a>, <a href="/mark/15-7.htm">Mark 15:7-15</a>, <a href="/luke/23-18.htm">Luke 23:18-25</a>, and <a href="/john/18-40.htm">John 18:40</a>. The choice of Barabbas over Jesus is often seen as a profound moment of injustice and a reflection of the rejection of the Messiah. 2. Bartimaeus: Another significant figure is Bartimaeus, the blind beggar who received his sight from Jesus. His account is found in <a href="/mark/10-46.htm">Mark 10:46-52</a>. The name Bartimaeus means "son of Timaeus," and his encounter with Jesus highlights themes of faith and divine mercy. Bartimaeus's persistent cries for Jesus' attention, despite being rebuked by the crowd, demonstrate his faith and determination, which Jesus acknowledges by healing him. 3. Bartholomew: One of the twelve apostles, Bartholomew is often identified with Nathanael, mentioned in the Gospel of John. The name Bartholomew means "son of Tolmai" or "son of the furrows," indicating his lineage. He is listed among the apostles in <a href="/matthew/10-3.htm">Matthew 10:3</a>, <a href="/mark/3-18.htm">Mark 3:18</a>, <a href="/luke/6-14.htm">Luke 6:14</a>, and <a href="/acts/1-13.htm">Acts 1:13</a>. Bartholomew's association with Nathanael is based on the synoptic Gospels' lists of apostles and the account in <a href="/john/1-45.htm">John 1:45-51</a>, where Nathanael is called by Jesus. 4. Barnabas: Although not using the prefix "Bar," Barnabas is worth mentioning due to his significant role in the early Church. His name means "son of encouragement" or "son of consolation," reflecting his character and ministry. Barnabas was a Levite from Cyprus and a close associate of the Apostle Paul. He is introduced in <a href="/acts/4-36.htm">Acts 4:36-37</a> and is known for his missionary journeys and role in the spread of the Gospel. Cultural and Linguistic Context: The use of "Bar" as a prefix in names reflects the Aramaic-speaking environment of first-century Judea and Galilee. Aramaic was the common language of the Jewish people during this period, and its influence is evident in the New Testament. The prefix "Bar" serves as a reminder of the cultural and linguistic setting in which the events of the New Testament unfolded. Theological Significance: The individuals bearing the "Bar" prefix often play crucial roles in the narrative of the New Testament, illustrating themes of redemption, faith, and the fulfillment of God's promises. The choice of Barabbas over Jesus underscores the gravity of human sin and the sacrificial nature of Christ's mission. Bartimaeus's healing exemplifies the transformative power of faith in Jesus. Bartholomew's apostleship highlights the diverse backgrounds of those called to follow Christ. Barnabas's ministry demonstrates the importance of encouragement and support within the Christian community. In summary, the prefix "Bar" in biblical names serves as a linguistic marker of heritage and identity, while the individuals associated with it contribute to the rich tapestry of biblical history and theology.<a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>Used to denote the means by which a door is bolted (<a href="/nehemiah/3-3.htm">Nehemiah 3:3</a>); a rock in the sea (<a href="/jonah/2-6.htm">Jonah 2:6</a>); the shore of the sea (<a href="/job/38-10.htm">Job 38:10</a>); strong fortifications and powerful impediments, etc. (<a href="/isaiah/45-2.htm">Isaiah 45:2</a>; <a href="/amos/1-5.htm">Amos 1:5</a>); defences of a city (<a href="/1_kings/4-13.htm">1 Kings 4:13</a>).
