New Favorite Word

I was reading my Bible today and I found my new favorite word in the Bible. For a long time, my favorite word in the entire Bible has been the word "Sychar." It became the word I used to name characters in computer games I played, and generally became my online user name for lots of websites. "Sychar" is a place in the Bible. Specifically it is the place where Jesus meets the women at the well. I don't know if there is an original language meaning to the place (most of the places do have meanings) but I defined it myself as being "from doubt to belief" because of Jesus' conversation with the women there.

Today, I found a new favorite word. It again is a name, but this time is a name of people. Yes, of people. Not of one person, but actually of two brothers. Two of the disciples are brothers, James and John, they are the sons of Zebedee, but Jesus gave them a new name. Together they are known as my new favorite word in the Bible. "Boanerges"

"Boanerges" as the Bible writes it means "Sons of Thunder." I don't know why this stuck out to me so much, just like I don't know why I originally picked "Sychar" but "Boanerges" is now on the top of my list, just above "Sychar."

You can find it in Mark 3:17
