From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
Miranda          (From the Latin for "admirable", also the heroine       of Shakespeare's Tempest) A {lazy} {purely functional}       programming language and interpreter designed by {David       Turner} at the {University of Kent} in the early 1980s.   It is       sold by his company, {Research Software} Limited.   It combines       the main features of {KRC} and {SASL} with {strong typing}       similar to that of {ML}.   Implemented for {Unix} by Allan       Grimeley, Computer Lab., UKC.   There is also a version that       runs on {Intel 80386} and above {IBM PCs} under {Linux}.          It features terse {syntax} using the {offside rule} for       indentation.   The {type} of an expression is inferred from the       {source} by the {compiler} but explicit type declarations are       also allowed.   Nested {pattern-matching}, {list       comprehensions}, {modules}.   {Operator sections} rather than       {lambda abstractions}.   User types are algebraic, and in early       versions could be constrained by {laws}.   Implemented by {SKI       combinator} reduction.   The {KAOS} operating system is written       entirely in Miranda.          E-mail: .          Translators from Miranda to {Haskell} (mira2hs) and to {LML}       (mira2lml) are available, {(ftp://www.foldoc.org/pub/)}.       Non-commercial near-equivalents of Miranda include {Miracula}       and {Orwell}.          ["Miranda: A Non Strict Functional Language with Polymorphic       Types", D.A.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Maranatha       (1 Cor. 16:22) consists of two Aramean words, Maran'athah,       meaning, "our Lord comes," or is "coming." If the latter       interpretation is adopted, the meaning of the phrase is, "Our       Lord is coming, and he will judge those who have set him at       nought." (Comp. Phil. 4:5; James 5:8, 9.)
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Meremoth       exaltations, heights, a priest who returned from Babylon with       Zerubbabel (Neh. 12:3), to whom were sent the sacred vessels       (Ezra 8:33) belonging to the temple. He took part in rebuilding       the walls of Jerusalem (Neh. 3:4).
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Meronothite       a name given to Jehdeiah, the herdsman of the royal asses in the       time of David and Solomon (1 Chr. 27:30), probably as one being       a native of some unknown town called Meronoth.
From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]:
Maranatha, the Lord is coming
From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]:
