Dictionary of Biblical Words
:
The
peculiar
name
of
God
as
Jehovah
, in relationship
with
His people.
Jesus
, as we know, is Jehovah and hence
this
name is taken by
Him
as His own in
John 8:58
58
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. (John 8:58)
. The name gives an idea of an
eternal
and independent existence. No
man
can
say “I am,” because his existence is not eternal, and it is dependent on the will of another. It may be observed that this serves as a handle or prefix to
all
the
other
names
of God, thus, “
I
am
a
Saviour
, a Friend, a
Father
,” &c., &c.
