Re: jakaraset -- could this possibly be a name??
in reply to a message by burro
Aset is the original Egyptian form of Isis.
Jakar could be Yakar, a Hebrew name meaning "dear, precious". But Yakar is the male form... The female would be Yakira or Yekara.Occasionally Hebrew-Egyptian names have existed. I remember reading about a Aset Yocheved, and of course there was several Queens called Iahhotep (Iah is in peace - Iah being another name of Adonai).Claire
