Jacob had twelve(12) sons, and in their names put together was the gospel hidden but now revealed through it. Its so amazing how God hid all these wonderful truths inside simple names and stories. Here are the names and their meanings: *NAMES* *MEANING* Reuben: Behold, A Son is born to us Simon: One who hears Levi: Attached Judah: Praise the Lord Dan: He judged Naphtali : My Struggle Gad: Good fortune Asher: Happiness Issachar: Reward Zebulun: Honour Joseph: Add to my family Benjamin: Son of righteousness When the names are joined together, this is what it says: _BEHOLD, A SON IS BORN UNTO US, ONE WHO HEARS US AND BECAME ATTACHED UNTO US. PRAISE THE LORD. HE JUDGED OUR STRUGGLES AND BROUGHT US GOOD FORTUNE, HAPPINESS, REWARD, HONOR; HE ADDED US TO HIS FAMILY AND CALLED US THE SONS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS._ Wishing you a happy new year 2019
