I have long suggested that a big problem with much of 'professing xtianity' is that people do not understand what it means to "come in the Name of" the Master. And I contend that the single best example in His Book about the 'precedent' for that understanding that exemplifies the "good and faithful servant" is from the story of Abraham's un-named servant in Genesis chapter 24.
But as to His Name, it is the essential crux of the entire Book of Exodus. And the 'why' beyond the why of what He showed Moses, 'kol Israel,' Egypt, and even Pharaoh: "ki ani YHVH."
There's far more to it than most have considered, I will contend. And it's related to His demonstration of why, although His Name appears in the Book of Genesis fully 165 times, and he identified Himself BY His Name YHVH to both Abraham and Yakov, He also says in this Torah portion that "by My Name Yahuah I did not make myself known to them."
So, why is His Real Name, as Written over 7000 time in Scripture - and REMOVED! - and replaced with 'the LORD" instead of what He actually SAID, so important?
