Yes.
If you're looking for the word "nun" as we use it, you won't find it (Nun is mentioned as the name of Joshua's father in the Hebrew Bible, though). You also won't find the words rapture, trinity, athiest, divinity, or incarnation. However, the ideas that all of these words represent are clear in scripture.
The prophetess Anna lived as a cloistered nun (Luke 2:36-37). There was an order of widows living the consecrated life after the deaths of their husbands (1Tim. 5:3-12). Paul warned that women were not to be enrolled in this order if they had intentions of leaving the consecrated life to get married and so "incur condemnation for having violated their pledge" (1 Tim. 5:12).
The Nazirites ("consecrated ones"), were were essentially monks and nuns. They took vows of self-denial (Num. 6:2-4, 6-8) and had a distinctive appearance (Num. 6:5). John the Baptist was one of these "monks" (Luke 1:15), as were Samson (Judges 13:5-6) and Samuel (1 Sam. 1:11) . In the Christian age Paul took a temporary Nazirite vow (Acts 18:18) and recommended that others live celibate lives, consecrated to God (1 Cor. 7:32-38), especially ministers (1 Tim. 2:3-4).
In The Bible, Nun is primarily known as the father of Joshua, who became the leader of the Israelites after Moses. Nun is often mentioned in relation to his son Joshua's accomplishments and leadership within the Israelite community.
a person who vows to be trust worthy to God and it means that that nun is dedicated to God
Answer:Nun (proper name) was the father of Joshua, the successor of Moses. See for example Exodus 33:11; Numbers 11:28; Deuteronomy 31:23.The Bible refers to the legendary leader, Joshua, as the son of Nun. So, here 'Nun' is simply a man's name. In the ancient Egyptian religion, Nun was the primordal god and father of the sun god. There is some biblical evidence that Joshua was thought of as a sun god before his story evolved into that of a Hebrew hero, so "Joshua, son of Nun" could be the Hebrew equivalent of Ra, son of Nun.
In the Bible, the mother of Joshua is not explicitly mentioned.
The opposite gender for monk is Nun.
The abbreviation for a nun is "Sister" or "Sr."
A boy nun would typically wear a traditional nun's habit, which consists of a long robe, a tunic, a hood, and a scapular. However, since nuns are traditionally women, the concept of a boy nun is not commonly seen in religious contexts.
There is no such thing as a male nun. The male equivalent of a nun would be a monk. However, a monk may be ordained into the priesthood while a nun cannot be ordained. The male equivalent of a sister would be a brother, a member of a religious congregation for men who are not ordained.

The Bible says that Joshua, son of Nun, was one of the Israelites who came out of Egypt.In Egyptian mythology, Nun was the primordal god and father of the sun god, Ra. The biblical account also points to Joshua, son of Nun, as originally a Hebrew sun god, who evolved in legend into a mortal. This is a view of the origin of Joshua held by some scholars.
The Bible implies, but does not state, that Joshua son of Nun, and also Caleb were born in Egypt. All the other men of their generation died in the desert, and they alone entered the promised land.
