Surely did not read all that.



Surely hope you have some semblance of a life. You are so very sad, dude.

Anyone wonder why this fellow chose to give up 20 points to ask the same question in four different places? Including places where the topic is way off-topic.



Just to add some information, the name Tabitha is Aramaic. There is one mention (no more, no less) of "Tabatha": In the television program Bewitched, the daughter of Samantha seems to have been called Tabatha. Although the spin-off series is indeed spelled 'Tabitha', the Bewitched pronunciation of the name seems to indicate that they spell it with an 'a'.



Other than that possibility, the Aramaic name is spelled Tabitha. It is a name and has no animal meaning in Aramaic.



I can understand some confusion, since the name "Dorcas" in Greek does mean a gazelle. But Tabitha is no animal in Aramaic.



I do not regard the name as unusual, but the spelling "Tabatha" is indeed unusual. There is no such word in Hebrew or Aramaic!!!



Tabitha was alleged to have been resurrected by Peter.
