Below is an extract from Jahweh – Jehovah. To read the full text, click “Download” below.
In Exodus 3:14 God says: “I am Whom I am“; and in 6:1-3 He calls Himself “Jehovah.” There, even the vocalization “Jahweh” seems to mean: “He is”; or “He causes to exist.”
So too in Genesis 2:4f, In John 8:58, Jesus says: “Before Abram was, I am.” And in Revelation 4:8 (cf. 1:4 & 1:8), the Lord God Almighty is called the One “Who was and is and shall be.” Indeed, from Genesis to Revelation – God’s name always has this same meaning.
