Bible
Proverbs 30, written by Agur, has a reference that many Christian scholars attribute to the Son, Jesus Christ. This scripture gives strong evidence of the Son of God, and Agur's belief of this. Particularly in Verse 4, where the author is certainly referring to God and his Son's name.
1 The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, even the prophecy: the man spake unto Ithiel, even unto Ithiel and Ucal,
2 Surely I am more brutish than any man, and have not the understanding of a man.
3 I neither learned wisdom, nor have the knowledge of the holy.
4 Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou canst tell?
