Bible trivia is also a great way to test your knowledge of Bible facts. Currently, there are many interesting Bible trivia questions to explore. One of them is the fact about the person with the longest name in the Bible. So, let's talk about Bible trivia for kids: a story about the longest name in the Bible here.

What is The Longest Name in The Bible?

The longest name in the Bible is Maher-Shalal Hash-Bas or Mahershalalhashbaz. It is a man's name. He was the second son of the prophet Isaiah. You can read the story of Mahershalalhashbaz in Isaiah 7-9. The name is considered to be the longest name in the Hebrew language.

In Hebrew, Mahershalalhashbaz consists of 5 words. The five words are maher (fast), shalal (destructive), chas (speed), baz (destructive). So, maharshalal and chasbaz are synonyms.

In fact, the prophet Isaiah gave that name to his son as a warning to people who were threatening Judah that God would soon come to punish them. So, the son of the Prophet Isaiah was born as part of God's people to carry out judgment on Judah's enemies such as Damascus (the capital of Syria) and Samaria (the capital of Israel).

The two enemies were defeated by the Assyrians from Mesopotamia. Mahershalalhashbaz is a reminder to Judah's enemies that they will be destroyed by God through Assyria.

The longest name in the Bible also explains to people that God often uses prophets and their children as life lessons and part of His plan. An example is Mahershalalhashbaz which is the longest name because God wants to show His power through that name.

What are The Hardest Names in The Bible?

Not only Mahershalalhashbaz, but there are also several other names in the Bible which are the longest and most difficult names. 

• Methuselah: Methuselah is the most difficult name in the Bible. He is the oldest man in the Bible. He lived for 969 years. This is explained in the Book of Genesis 5:27. The meaning of his name is “if he dies, it is judgment day.” This was proven by Noah's flood at the time of Methuselah's death.
  
  
• Nebuchadnezzar: The meaning of the name Nebuchadnezzar is “Babylonian attack and savior.” Nebuchadnezzar was king of Babylon. He is God's tool to give punishment to the people of Judah. However, Nebuchadnezzar was an evil king. He also did cruel things to God's people. However, this made God's people believe that God would save them from Nebuchadnezzar's cruelty.
  
  
• Abaddon: The name is the same as Apollyon which means destroyer. You can find that name in Revelation 9:11. It was the name of a king of the Abyss. The king was very cruel. In fact, the King's name often appears in the Old Testament to describe the dead. In the end, Abaddon died by the power of God.
