In this world, every second a child is born, And some people name them after they are born or have some names in their mind before they are born. Bible says in (Psalms 127:3) “Children are the inheritance of the Lord.” In the Old Testaments, a person named after eight days on the day of circumcision(Luke 2:21).
As it is written in the Bible that God knows a person before he or she was a baby in the Womb of the Mother (Psalms 139, Jeremiah 1:5). So, in this article, I will be sharing the names of the person who were named before they were born. And at that time, no one had the technology to check if it is going to be a baby boy or a baby girl. But still, there were prophecies about some persons who were named before they were born. And I will be sharing with you the names of the Persons who were named before birth in the Bible.
In Bible, so many great prophets came to whom God talks. And they had done great things in Bible.
