Barabbas Name meanings & History
"Son of the Father". Hellenized form of bar-Abbâ, which means "son of Abba" in Aramaic, derived from Aramaic bar meaning "son" combined with the Aramaic given name Abba. Since the name Abba means "father" in Aramaic, the literal meaning of the entire name would be "son of the father". In the Bible, Barabbas was a prisoner who was freed instead of Jesus Christ by Pontius Pilate during the Passover feast in Jerusalem. Barabbas is mainly used as a literary or religious reference, rather than a personal name. It may be chosen by some parents who have a strong religious or symbolic attachment to the story of Jesus and Barabbas, but it is not a common or recommended choice for a baby name.
