Exodus 3:13

What is his name.

14; 15:3; Ge 32:29; Jud 13:6,17; Pr 30:4; Isa 7:14; 9:6; Jer 23:6

Exodus 3:15

The Lord.

6; 4:5; Ge 17:7,8; De 1:11,35; 4:1; 2Ch 28:9; Mt 22:32; Ac 7:32

this is my name for ever.The name here referred to is that which immediately precedes, [yhwh,] ,] {Yehowah,} which we translate "Lord", the name by which God had been known from the creation of the world, (Ge 2:2,) and by which he is known to the present day. [yhwh,] {Yehowah,} from [hwh,] {hawah,} to be, subsist, signifies "He who is", or "subsists", i.e., eminently and in a manner superior to all other beings; and is essentially the same with [ahwh,] {eheyeh,} "I AM", in the preceding verse.

Ps 72:17,19; 135:13; 145:1,2; Isa 9:6; 63:12

my memorial.

Ps 102:12; Ho 12:5; Mic 4:5; Mal 3:6; Heb 13:8

Exodus 6:3

God Almighty.{El shadday,} God Almighty; for {shadday} is evidently of affinity with the Arabic {shadid,} strong, mighty, and {shiddat,} strength, might; so the LXX. in Job render it [panto krator,] Vulgate, in Pentateuch, {Omnipotens,} and Syriac, in Job, {chasino.}

Ge 17:1; 28:3; 35:11; 48:3

but by my name.If Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, did not know the name Jehovah, then Moses must have used it in Genesis by prolepsis, or anticipation. Mr. Locke and others read it interrogatively, for the negative particle, {lo,} not, has frequently this power in Hebrew: "I appeared unto Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, and by my name Jehovah was I not also made known unto them?"

JEHOVAH.

3:14; Ge 12:7,8; 13:18; 22:14; Ps 68:4

JAH.
