Subject: why was Jabez named sorrow maker |
Bible Note: John, I'm not that well acquainted with this Text, but the word translated "pain" in Chap 4:9 is used three other times in Ps 139:24; Is 14:3; and Is 48:5 and it is translated (in the KJV) as Wicked (or grievous), Sorrow, and Idol respectively. Seems to be a bit of an enigma. MJH |
