Bible References in Final Fantasies

[Tetra Master]

let's name them here guys.

FFIII:
~Ur is the town where the main characters came from. In the bible, Abram originated from Ur before moving to Canaan.
~Canaan is mentioned early in the game. Probably a future destination.

FFVII:
~The "Promised Land" that Shinra is restlessly searching for.


add more please.

There is someone in the bible called Cain which Kain Highwind is named after. Cain's jealousy for his brother Abel is the same as Kain's jealousy for Cecil. In the GBA version of FFIV, Kain's final weapon is called "Abel's Lance".

I could definitely see the bible references in the series. I think there could also be some philosophy to be derived from them. For example, Mother could represent the desire for security and protection, as any human strives to aquire. But, that's just me. I could go deeper, but I won't.
