About this episode
This episode explores the significance of God's name, YHWH, and its meaning 'I AM WHO I AM' in relation to His attributes and Jesus.
While we don't often think too much about it in our culture, in the Biblical era, names often had special significance. In our text this morning, we will see how this is true even of God. When Moses asks for a name to give to the Israelites, to let them know their God would be with them, God replies not only by giving his name, YHWH (often translated as the LORD), but also gives that Name a meaning: I AM WHO I AM. This simple statement gives us a measure of who God truly is, in all his unchanging, eternal, sovereign power and glory, and over this series, we will come to see how these attributes and more are reflected in the Son, Jesus, who claims this name for himself.
