The Meaning in the Name
Commentators explain that when God declares, "I am Jehovah, that is my name," He is revealing His core nature. The name Jehovah (or Yahweh) signifies His unique, self-existent, eternal, and unchanging being. This name, which scholars note is exclusive to the true God, serves to distinguish Him from all idols and false gods, establishing Him as the only one worthy of worship.
