Bible Question:
Today I was made aware that the name Barak is in the bible. Judges 4 and 5. I thought it was quite interesting and began to read the chapter as well as some of the commentaries you have available. Is it a coincidence that Barack Obama is the first African American President? And Deborah, a prophetess, in Judges sent for Barak to free the Israelites. And God considered Barak a faithful man. Although the spellings of the two names are somewhat different, the similarities are striking. Am I reading too much into this? Thank you |
Bible Answer: Hello Saved4ever: Welcome to the Study Bible Forum. You know, Saved4ever, I don't mean to be flip, and I especially don't mean to dampen the enthusiasm of a new user of the forum, but sometimes a question comes across that just doesn't make any sense at all. I'm very sorry but I have no idea what on Earth you are talking about. There are no fundamental similarities between the two, so how can we possibly see a coincidence when there is none to be seen. Please remember too, this is a Bible study forum and not an opinion/speculation forum, nor do we encourage the discussion of politicks. Sorry. God bless John |
