Elishama
The name "Elishama" means "God has heard" in Hebrew. This name reflects a deep-seated belief in the responsiveness of God to the prayers and needs of His people. In the context of King David's life, naming a son Elishama could signify David's acknowledgment of God's faithfulness and attentiveness to his cries, especially considering the tumultuous journey David had experienced from shepherd boy to king. This name serves as a reminder of the personal relationship believers can have with God, who hears and responds to their petitions.

Eliada
"Eliada" translates to "God knows" or "God has known." This name underscores the omniscience of God, a central tenet in conservative Christian theology. It suggests that God is aware of all things, past, present, and future. For David, naming his son Eliada might have been an expression of trust in God's perfect knowledge and divine plan. It is a comforting reminder to believers that nothing escapes God's notice, and He is intimately acquainted with all aspects of their lives.

Eliphelet
The name "Eliphelet" means "God is deliverance" or "God is my deliverance." This name is a powerful testament to the deliverance and salvation that God provides. In the historical context of David's reign, it reflects the numerous times God delivered David from his enemies and established him as king over Israel. For Christians, this name is a foreshadowing of the ultimate deliverance through Jesus Christ, who provides salvation from sin and eternal death. It encourages believers to trust in God's power to save and deliver them from any situation.
