And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch.
Names significant of his restored prosperity (Genesis 4:25; Genesis 5:29). Jemima, daylight, after his "night" of calamity: but Maurer, 'a dove,' from an Arabic root. Kezia, cassia, an aromatic herb (Psalms 45:8): instead of his offensive breath and ulcers. Kerenhappuch, 'horn of stibium,' a paint with which females dyed their eyelids; in contrast to his "horn defiled in the dust" (Job 16:15). The names also imply the beauty of his daughters.
