No. The name Jocelyn does not appear in the Bible.

Jocelyn comes from the Germanic name Gautselin, built from the tribal word Gaut (meaning &quot;Goth&quot; or &quot;Gaul&quot;) and the suffix -lin (&quot;descendant&quot;). The name traveled from the Germanic lands into Old French as Joscelin, then into English as Jocelyn.\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\t\t<div class=\"cppw-paywall paywp-paywall\" data-required-level=\"25\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"cppw-lock-mark\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t<h2>Continue reading with a subscription<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<p>Get unlimited access to all our premium content and exclusive features.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"cppw-paywall__actions\">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"cppw-button wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/christianpure.com\/pt\/become-a-member\/\">Subscribe now<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"cppw-login-link\" href=\"https:\/\/christianpure.com\/pt\/login\/\">Already a subscriber?
