About Keziah Connections
Keziah – What’s behind the name?
The story of Job in the Old Testament of the Bible is probably best known for his suffering. But tucked away at the end of the book is an amazing fairy tale ending where we read of Job and his family ‘living happily ever after’.
Job’s life is restored and he is mightily blessed with children and an abundance of livestock.
In Job 42:13-15 there are some truly significant words:
“Job had seven sons and also three daughters.
He called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch.
In all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job, and their father gave them inheritance along with their brothers.“
The name represents BEAUTY, EQUALITY, LEGACY
Beauty
Keziah and her sisters are described as the most beautiful women in the land. Women of colour are also among the most beautiful of women.
Through the ages their beauty has been admired – from Queen Nefertiti of ancient Egypt, to Aishwarya Rai, who has been named as one of the most beautiful women in the world and Jourdan Dunn, the British model currently dominating the catwalk.
Yet this beauty is often maligned and misrepresented.
Keziah Connections celebrates the internal and external beauty of women from all backgrounds and ethnicities.
Equality
The name has been taken to symbolise equality; all of Job’s three daughters received an inheritance from their father.
This was unusual in a time when women and men were not treated equally and all property and assets were transferred to the males of the household.
This act by their father confirmed to those around them that they were indeed equal in every aspect, able to partake of every opportunity that comes their way.
Keziah Connections believes that equal opportunities, and equal representation in the beauty industry is a priority and aims to see this become a reality.
Legacy
Hebrew names often have a special meaning and ‘Keziah’ comes from ‘Cassia’; a lovely spice tree with beautiful yellow blooms and Cassia oil is used in perfume and as a healing balm due to its calming, soothing properties.
Fragrance lifts the mood and affects both the wearer and those with whom she comes into contact with.
It lingers long after the wearer has left a room, creating memories and associations that have a long-lasting impact
Keziah Connections aims to equip women with the skills needed to create a positive legacy that will be remembered for many years to come.
