Reva
Pronounced REE-vuh
girl
Not found in the KJV text — No — the name Reva does not appear in the King James Bible. Christian families use it for its meaning, "Rain; To bind; Graceful", and for the biblical themes that meaning touches, not because anyone in Scripture is called Reva.
- Meaning
- "Rain; To bind; Graceful"
- Origin
- Hebrew/Sanskrit
Rain is one of Scripture's most beautiful metaphors for God's blessing and His Word. God sends rain on the just and unjust alike, and His Word falls like rain to nourish the earth. Reva captures this image of divine refreshment and abundant grace.
Spiritual meaning
Reva embodies the refreshing rain of God's Word and presence — falling gently on parched souls and bringing abundant life.
