Help[Facts] Re: Candice is an alternate spelling of the name Candace...
in reply to a message by daisymae
Daisymae is right that Candace is indeed a queen [mentioned] in the Bible. It was her treasurer in a chariot that Philip converted to Christianity in the Book of Acts (if I'm wrong on this, consider I haven't been to church much this year).
She was supposedly the Queen of Ethiopia (not Ras Tafari's wife, tho), and Bible name expert Hitchcock (100 years dead, alas) gives its meaning as "who possesses contrition" (i.e., she's sorry for past actions).
Have I used up my monthly quota of parentheses yet?
