- Beth-sheba
-
(Hebrew בת שבע) Also Beth-Shabbat or Bathsheba. The wife of King David and mother of King Solomon.
"And David sent and inquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?" - Samuel 11:3
"Beth or Bath" in Hebrew means daughter, and "Sheba" means seven. Solomon's mother's name literally means daughter of Sheba, daughter of the Seven. When read backwards it is Sheba-bath or Shebbath: Shabbath.
