3. יהוה – This is God's Name written in 4 Hebrew letters.
- Often, it is transliterated as YHWH or YHVH.
- There is a long history regarding the pronunciation of YHWH. I will explain this at a later time.
- For now, whenever we see יהוה we will pronounce it as "Yahweh".
4. God did not say this is one of my names.
5. "This is my Name" – Singular!
- I used to think that God has many names. I thought He was also called the "Eternal King", "the Lord", "the Holy One", "God," "El Shaddai", etc.
- Eternal King, the Lord, the Holy One, God, El Shaddai are not "Names".
- They are "Descriptive Titles". They describe God's character and what He does.

Isa 42:8a "I am יהוה this is my name."
