(Job 42)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>According to the above text, the answer to our question is found in verse 15 where it is written:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p>In all the land no women were found so fair as Job\u2019s daughters ; and their father gave them inheritance among their brothers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The author wants to draw our attention to two important truths in this text that deal with Job\u2019s daughters:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>First of all, there were no other women in the land as beautiful as Job\u2019s daughters.<\/li>\n<li>Secondly, Job gave the girls an inheritance, as well as to their brothers. According to the Old Testament, the inheritance was only given to the males of the family and not the females. The sons were given an inheritance. The only reason girls were given an inheritance was if their father were to die without having a male heir (see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.biblestudytools.com\/nas\/numbers\/27-8.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Numbers 27:8<\/a>). If a girl were given an inheritance then she was not allowed to marry anyone other than a man from her father\u2019s tribe. God did not allow the inheritance of one tribe to pass along to another tribe (see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.biblestudytools.com\/nas\/numbers\/36.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Numbers 36<\/a>). The purpose of this text is to show how Job dealt with his girls, so that is why their names are mentioned and not the boys.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Bible Dictionary<\/h2>\n<p>I searched the meaning of the names of Job\u2019s three girls. Each name has a very important meaning. Keep in mind that these girls were born after Job experienced all of his sufferings.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p>Jemimah = \u201cday by day\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>After all of Job\u2019s sufferings, he may have wanted a reminder to himself that he must live one day at a time and walk with the Lord because you never know what tomorrow may bring.<\/p>\n<p>The second daughter\u2019s name is:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p>Keziah = \u201ccassia\u201d- a spice; a powdered bark like cinnamon<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This spice is also mentioned in Psalm 45 where we find the following:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p>\u00a08 All <strong>Your garments are fragrant with myrrh and aloes and <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">cassia<\/span><\/strong> ; Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made You glad.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>His third daughter was named:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p>Keren-happuch = \u201chorn of antimony\u201d used by ladies of that time to apply eye cosmetics<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So, according to the passages and all that we have seen, the purpose of this text, and specifically the fact that Job\u2019s daughters are mentioned by name, is to either explain how beautiful the girls were or more like to demonstrate the terrible suffering in Job\u2019s life had come to an end.<\/p>\n<p>This is all that the Bible mentions of them. The boys are not mentioned probably because there was nothing really significant about them.<\/p>\n<p>Translation by: <a href=\"https:\/\/erikbrewer.wordpress.com\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Erik Brewer<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In order to be able to respond to this question asked by one of the visitors of our site, we first need to take a look at the Biblical text where we find Job\u2019s daughters\u2019 names mentioned.
