A brief table of the interpretation of the proper names, which are chiefly founde in the Olde Testament, wherein the firste number signifieth the chapter, the second the verse. Whereas the wickednesse of time, and the blindnesse of the former age, hath bene such, that all things altogether have bene abused and corrupted, so that the very right names of divers of the holy men named in the scriptures have bene forgotten, and nowe seeme strange unto us, and the names of infants that should ever have some godly advertisements in them, and should be memorials and markes of the children of God received into his houshold, hath bene hereby also chaunged and made the signes and badges of idolatrie and heathenish impietie, we have nowe set forth this table of the names that be moste used in the Old Testament, with their interpretations, as the Hebrewe importeth; partly to call backe the godly from that abuse when shey shall knowe the true names of the godly fathers and what they signifie, that their children nowe named after them may have testimonies by their very names, that they are within that faythful familie that in all their doings had ever God before their eyes, and that they are bound by these their namies to serve God from their infaucie, and have occasion to prayse him for his workes wrought in him and their fathers; but chiefly to restore the names to their integritie, whereby many places of the scriptures and secret mysteries of the Holy Ghost shall better be understood. We have medled rarely with the Greeke names, because their interpretation is uncertaine, and many of them are corrupted from their originall, as we may also see these Hebrewe names set in the margent of this table which have bene corrupted by the Grecians. Nowe for the other Hebrewe names that are not here interpreted, let not the diligent reader be carefull: for he shall find them in places most convenient amongst the annotations; at least so many as may seeme to make for any edification and understanding of the scriptures.
