The same question goes to you OP, why will you be elated and be delighted to answer if someone called a Lion but angry if they call you a goat? |

grandlexuz: Yet you said she is FROM Sorek despite knowing the bible did not say that? Did the Bible tell you that Sorek was NOT Philistine territory? At no point did I say she was described as Philistine in the bible. Your argument that because she was Philistine she would or should not have been paid is illogical Why call it a "BRIBE" ? It was payment for services rendered Was Judas not paid I suggest you Google the word HISTORICITY you might learn something let us get one thing straight For me the bible is just a story /history book of the Hebrews . So me referencing the bible does not mean I accept it unquestioningly or that I even believe this story ever happened. I do not have that burden let us just assume for argument sake that it happened Bible scholars are of the view that she was Philistine. |

Righteousness2:Yeah, there are robbers, prostitutes, killers bearing Joseph, Ruth, Mathew, Abraham and so on... The only thing that impacts your life are your environment, family, friends, people you associate yourself and society you grew up in... Your name has ZERO impact in your life. If you were born in Iraq you'll be slamming your head somewhere far away in the East... 2 Likes 1 Share |

THE NAME JACOB MEANS SUPPLANTER AND AS LONG AS JACOB THE TWIN BROTHER OF ESUA WAS JACOB, HE WAS A CROOK BECAUSE NAMES HAVE MEANINGS AND SPIRITS. CHECK THE WAY HE CHEATED HIS BRO ESAU AND THE WAY HE CHEATED HIS FATHER INLAW LABAN. BESIDES THOSE THAT OUGHT TO NAME THEIR DAUGHTERS DELILAH ARE NOT CHRISTIANS BUT MUSLIMS THE DESCENDANTS OF ISHMAEL BECAUSE THE WOMAN WAS A PALESTINIAN NOT AN ISRAELITE. |

That is a. Disgusting name just like Judas Iscariot, Goliath and many others, and it is not about the name sha, it is about the character and how the person control hos or her anger when he or she is face with situation. |

aribisala0:The point of interest here is not anglicised names. The name Delilah has a Hebrew origin even though she is a Philistine. And there are equally a number of foreigners with Hebrew names too. It is also not clear if their was a language attributable to Philistia. |

Muslims are the ones that are supposed to name their daughters Delilah not christians. Delilah was a palestinian, a descendant of Ishmeal like muslims of today. |

tejpot:How do you know it has a Hebrew Origin If a name can be anglicized why can't it be Semitized? |
Re: Why Are People Not Naming Their Daughters “delilah” ? by grandlexuz(m): 12:24pm On Jul 11, 2021 |
aribisala0: You said Delilah was Philistine and I asked for biblical evidence. You still have not been able to provide biblical evidence she was Philistine. I said she was from the valley of Sorek. You said Samson only met her there. True so. Yet the valley of Sorek was not philistine territory... I said if she was Philistine the elders wouldn't need to approach her to pay 1100 pieces of shekel EACH to get Samson's secret. In Judges 14 when Samson gave a riddle to the Philistine all the needed to do to get the answers from his wife was threaten to burn their house.. A threat the followed through when Samson killed some Philistine as revenge for his wife given to another man.. You argued saying Judas also got paid for betraying Jesus. A very illogical argument. Unlike the Philistines coming up to Delilah to offer mouth watering bribe of 1100 shekels from each elder, Judas WENT to the chief priest to ask for how much he be paid if he handed up Jesus to them. |
