In this reading plan, we are learning more about God by studying the names given to Him in Scripture. Each day, you\u2019ll come here to read the description of the name we\u2019re studying today and a brief explanation of how God\u2019s character is seen through His name. (Remember that because the Bible was originally written in Hebrew and Greek, some of God\u2019s names are written in the English form of His name from their original language.) You can then head to today\u2019s passages to see how this name functions in Scripture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
YAHWEH: <\/strong>The name God gives Himself, highlighting His covenantal and relational nature<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yahweh<\/em> is a profoundly holy name, but it is also unmistakably personal. Yahweh is distinct from other names of God because it is self-revealed. It is the intimate, covenantal, relational name of God. Modern English translations of the Bible often use small capital letters (LORD or GOD) for Yahweh. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When Moses asked God for His name in Exodus 3, God revealed Himself as \u201cI Am Who I Am\u201d and then called Himself Yahweh. In Exodus 34, again God proclaimed His name as He described His character to Moses. Scholars are divided on the meaning of Yahweh, but likely options are that it is a reference to God\u2019s eternal nature or to God as the creator of all things. His name is a core part of the covenantal promise He made with Moses\u2014Yahweh will always be who He is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In this reading plan, we are learning more about God by studying the names given to Him in Scripture.
