'''Abi''' |
'''Abi''' is another name for GOD. It means the Superior One or the Creator. Abi is the name given in [[2 Kings]] 18:2 to the mother of [[Hezekiah]], [[king of Judah]]. The name translates as "my father," and is probably a shortened version of the name. The parallel verse in [[2 Chronicles]] 29:1 gives this name as '''Abijah''' (NRSV, other versions use [[Abiah]] or [[Abia]]), which means "God is my father." |
