Romans 16:10-15 mentions the names of people Paul personally met. These names have important meanings in Greek. In this article, we will show the name meanings from Romans 16:10-15 along with some other nouns. Amazingly, these name meanings,* when placed together in the order in which they appear in the Bible, form a secret message: a message from God. (*Note: These are name meanings which God revealed to me based on concordances and Bible dictionaries.) 

At the very end of this article, we have placed a secret message which was formed out of Greek name meanings from Romans chapter 16, verses 10 through 15.

Now, let's look at each Greek word of significance and see what dictionaries and concordances have to say about them. After we give each word meaning from reference works, we will include a spiritual meaning, revealed by God. I encourage anyone reading this to seek God about this message and about these words, if he or she would like to.

The words we will look at are arranged in the exact order found in the Bible in Romans 16:10-15. We list them below as they appear in the Bible, starting with Aristobulus:

Aristobulus, Herodion, Narcissus, Tryphena, Tryphosa, Persis, Rufus, 

Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, Philologus, Julia, Nereus,  Olympas, and saints.

The Word Meanings of the Above List

Name: Aristoboulos (Aristobulus)

Name Meaning: "From the same as ariston and boule; best counselling;..." Ariston means "the best meal" or "dinner". Boule means "advise, counsel."

We are seeing today an increase of hatred against Jews and Israel. The vitriol is astounding. Pro-Nazi and pro-Hitler accounts are popping up all over social media and the number of "anti-Semitic" incidents, or instances of persecution against Jewish people, are increasing each year. 

This article is divided up into these following parts:

1. Introduction

2. Hatred of the Jews During the Middle Ages

3. Biblical Answers for an Accusation Against Jews

4. "Replacement Theology," a False Doctrine

5. God Makes a Promise to Abraham and His Sons

6. Persecution of the Jews in Nazi Germany

7. Persecution of Jews Today

8. Conclusion

1. Introduction

I am writing as a Gentile follower of Jesus Christ. Jesus taught that we ought to love our neighbor as ourselves. There is no teaching of Jesus or of the Bible that agrees with the persecution of Jews. Persecuting the Jews is actually the very opposite of what God calls us to do. God wants us to love and care for others.

In Mark 12:31, Jesus said: "[31] And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these." Earlier, Jesus was saying to love God the Father with all the heart, soul, mind, and strength, teaching that this was the first commandment.

I am writing to you as a Gentile and as a believer in Jesus Christ, who is my personal Savior and Lord. This article will focus on some issues today that have had their roots in ancient beliefs, which, sadly, are popular among many people today, even though these beliefs are unbiblical and hateful toward Jewish people.

In social media websites and all around the world is a phenomenon which has been accelerating over the last few years. It is the hatred for Israel and for Jewish people (who are descendants of Jacob, a grandson of Abraham). 

This hatred of Jewish people goes back to ancient times. Haman, an official in the Persian Empire, sought to kill all the Jewish people in the empire. By using Queen Esther (a secret Jew) and Mordecai (her uncle), God delivered the Jewish people from destruction at the hands of wicked men in the Persian Empire. (You can read about it in the book of Esther, a book of the Bible.)
