This is a list of names from the Bible, taken from the 19th century public domain resource:
Some people of the Biblical period are not listed here, because their names are not in the canonical Bible.

 bible - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
From the 800s to the 1400s, rabbinic Jewish scholars known as the Masoretes compared the text of all known Biblical manuscripts in an effort to create a unified and standardized text; a series of highly similar texts eventually emerged, and any of these texts are known as Masoretic Texts (MT).
Since it was members of the Church who wrote the New Testament and a series of church councils that decided the biblical canon, the Orthodox believe that the Church should also be the final authority in its interpretation.
The pesher method of interpretation, which views Biblical passages as coded representations of events current to the writing of the passage, was recently (1992) put forward by Barbara Thiering, Ph.D. It is not taken seriously by most experts.

 Dismas
Saint Dismas is an apocryphal name given to one of the thieves who was crucified alongside Christ according to the Gospel of Luke 23:39-43:
The name of "Dismas" for this person, unnamed in the canonical Gospel itself, appears first in the twelfth century in the Gospel of Nicodemus.
The name of "Dismas" was adapted from a Greek word meaning "sunset" or "death." The names themselves were popularized through an apocryphal Infancy Gospel, which adds a fanciful tale about how Dismas prevented other thieves in his company from robbing Mary and Joseph on their flight into Egypt.

Although the Tanakh was mainly written in Biblical Hebrew, it has some portions in Biblical Aramaic.
It is on the basis of these that nearly all modern translations or revisions of older translations have, for more than a century, been made, though some people, partly out of loyalty to the translations of the time of the Protestant Reformation, still prefer the Textus Receptus or the similar "Byzantine Majority Text".

Liturgical and theological use of names that abstract from or offer gender-free or female-gendered alternatives to biblical names contradict Catholic traditions of exegesis and worship by precluding ontological exploration of divine Personhood and denying that divine attributes are eternal realities understandable to human reason.
On the other hand, the names with which biblical figures address God or are asked to address God suggest something of the divine personality that intends and wills certain actions.
Although in biblical Greek the verb, in passive voice, can mean "to be born," even this usage usually designates the father's role (as in "Abraam ege'nnesen t`on Isaak") in establishing a child's identity.

 Did Jesus Really Rise From The Dead?

No matter how eagerly one may wish to do so, there is simply no way the various accounts of Jesus' post-mortem activities can be harmonized."[24] A. Harvey: "All the Gospels, after having run closely together in their accounts of the trial and execution, diverge markedly when they come to the circumstance of the Resurrection.
No one knows who wrote Mark--the Gospels are all anonymous, and names were formally attached to them much later, around the year 180.[46] Whoever wrote Mark is speaking from the historical perspective of a second generation of believers, not as an eye-witness.
