You better get something other than your Bible or Bible concordance, because it isn't found in either of them.

SHEKINAH [shuh KIGH nuh] (dwelling) — a visible manifestation of the presence of God (also spelled Shechinah and Shekhinah). Although the word is not found in the Bible, it occurs frequently in later Jewish writings. It refers to the instances when God showed Himself visibly, as, for example, on Mount Sinai (Ex. 24:9–18) and in the Holy of Holies of the tabernacle and in Solomon’s Temple. The Shekinah was a luminous cloud that rested above the altar in the place of worship and lit up the room. When the Babylonians destroyed the Temple, the Shekinah glory vanished. There was no Shekinah in the temples rebuilt later under Zerubbabel and Herod.

Exactly! It is NOT in the Bible. But it is found in Jewish mysticism.
There are some churches that call God "Sophia." That name is a noun as well. It is also a supposed name for God. Like 'Shekinah,' it refers to a female diety. But the biggest issue is that neither of these names were EVER used for God's name or found in the Bible.

I don't know where you get your information...the Jewish religious and history books record many things about God that got left out of the King James Version, but it has not been referred to like you have stated in any books I have read.

Sister Rhoni,
It was not left out of the King James Bible, it was left out of God's Word. You should take special note of that.

Re: Paganism in Christianity
Shekinah is a FEMALE deity in Kaballa.
Leonard Nimoy, a Jew, delved into artistic photography and photographed semi-nude women dressed in Hebrew Judaic religious garb to promote the FEMALE glory, and he called it SHEKINAH.
