This name is significant as it underscores the belief in a God who listens to the prayers and needs of His people. Elishama is also a name found in other parts of the Bible, such as in the genealogy of the tribe of Ephraim (<a href="/1_chronicles/7-26.htm">1 Chronicles 7:26</a>). The repetition of this name in different contexts highlights its importance and the common practice of naming children with the hope of divine favor and intervention.<p><b>Beeliada</b><br>Beeliada, meaning "Baal knows," is an interesting name given the context of Israel's history with Baal worship. This name suggests a period when syncretism, or the blending of religious beliefs, might have been present in Israel. However, it is important to note that in <a href="/1_chronicles/14-7.htm">1 Chronicles 14:7</a>, Beeliada is also referred to as Eliada in <a href="/2_samuel/5-16.htm">2 Samuel 5:16</a>, which means "God knows." This change in name could reflect a later editorial decision to emphasize monotheism and the worship of Yahweh alone, distancing from any association with Baal, a Canaanite deity. This highlights the ongoing struggle in Israel's history to maintain pure worship of Yahweh amidst surrounding pagan influences.<p><b>and Eliphelet</b><br>Eliphelet, meaning "God is deliverance," is a name that encapsulates a central theme of the biblical narrative: God's ability to save and deliver His people. This name is a testament to the hope and trust placed in God by the Israelites. Eliphelet is also mentioned in other genealogies, such as in <a href="/1_chronicles/3-8.htm">1 Chronicles 3:8</a>, where he is listed among the sons of David born in Jerusalem. The recurrence of this name in the royal lineage underscores the importance of acknowledging God's role as a deliverer, a theme that resonates throughout the Old Testament and finds its ultimate fulfillment in the New Testament with the coming of Jesus Christ, who is seen as the ultimate deliverer and savior.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/e/elishama.htm">Elishama</a></b><br>One of the sons of King David, whose name means "God has heard." This name reflects a common theme in the Bible of God hearing and responding to the prayers and needs of His people.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/b/beeliada.htm">Beeliada</a></b><br>Another son of David, also known as Eliada in some translations. The name Beeliada means "Baal knows," which is interesting given the later negative connotations of Baal worship in Israel. It may reflect a cultural context or a different understanding of the name at the time.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/e/eliphelet.htm">Eliphelet</a></b><br>Also a son of David, whose name means "God is deliverance."
