Jemina- "handsome as the day" Kezia- superficies, the angle, (?) cassia (a bark that had a cinimon like aroma)
Keren-happich- the horn, child of beauty
Perhaps, after his ordeal, Job had a renewed apprecaition for life and his family. He renamed them to express this new appreciation? Just a thought. My grandsons name is Seth. We call him "Little man". Maybe Job gave his daughters a nick name.
Wow! I just yesterday learned (or relearned -- think I saw it before) on Good Eats that the sticks they sell as cinnamon in stores is really cassia, usually.

Wow, this discussion, which, BTW, seems to have drifted from Timmy's orginal intent. (Sorry, Bro!) has got me to thinking. (I do that on occasion). Job was a perfect man. Yet, if I read the story right, I see some character flaws (self-righteousness and pity, a little judgmentalism). So maybe he wasn't so perfect afterall. But God said he was...and who am I to argue with God? Unless God ses perfection differently than I do.
I read somewhere that Michealangelo (Sorry, Mike's not from around here, so spelling may be off) once said that an uncut piece of stone was a perfect work of art. He said that because, until it is cut into, that stone has the potential of becoming anything he can make it into.
Sometimes, I think God sees us that way. As an uncut stone, willing to be molded into whatever He chooses us to be. In God's eyes we are perfect when we are willing to become nothing more than a lump of clay in the potters hands. We begin perfect... but become even more perfect by His touch. A diamond in the rough is perfect in its natural state. It takes the hands of a Master to let that diamond be seen. Job, too, was perfect in that he loved God and hated evil. Can anyone but Job be any more perfect than that? Loving God is to put your life into His hands and say, "Here I am, Lord... mold me". Oh, Lordy, I believe I'm gonna have me a spell!!!
We return you now to your regularly scheduled programming....

I use to preach...back when I was a preacher.... a sermon entitled Serpents Seed. No, not of the William Branham variety. Again, I feel it necessary to emphasize: I DO NOT BELIEVE THE SERPENTS SEED AS TAUGHT BY BROTHER WILLIAM BRANHAM. I used the Serpents Seed title to garner attention. You oughta see the preachers grabbin' their Bibles to prove me wrong!
The Serpents Seed is just what Satan did in the garden and still does so today. Take a part of Gods Word, twist it just enough to divert a person from what God intended, and decieve them. The enemy in one of the parables of Jesus, sowed tares in with the wheat. A little false mixed in with the truth makes it hard to see the difference. The JFK assassination is a good example. The truth of the events of Nov. 22, 1963 was right there in front of us. The problem was, we couldn't distinquish truth from all the false.
Satan successfully diverted Eves attention from what God said to what he (the serpent) wanted Eve to believe. His greatest and most effective tool, especially among the Christians? The Bible you read everyday. The devil tried it in tempting Jesus. He did it in Pauls day and he continues to do so today. Sow a little false in with the good. Soon we are headin' down the slippery slope into the abyss.

Does he look like an angel of light? That's the famous Timmy (Timmay!) of South Park. Thought of by other characters on the show as "retarded" and "crippled", but, IMO, he's one smart and capable dude!
