出エジプト記 3:10-14 JCB

The Pulpit Commentary - Exodus 3:13-15

The proper Name of God. "This is my name for ever," etc.—( Exodus 3:15 .) This incident of the burning bush teems with subjects susceptible of homiletic treatment. We name a few of the more important, which we ourselves do not linger to treat. 1 . THE INDESTRUCTIBILITY OF THE CHURCH , Exodus 3:2 . 2. THE DOCTRINE OF THE ANGEL - GOD . Note in Exodus 3:2-4 that "The Angel of Jehovah," "Jehovah," and "God," are one and the same. 3 . THE RESTRICTION ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Exodus 3:13-17

The second difficulty: the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob-what is his name? Moses feels that when he goes among his brethren, one of their first questions will be as to the name of this God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Consider— I. HOW IT WAS THAT THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH A QUESTION WAS SUGGESTED TO HIS MIND . All the deities of the other nations had names, and doubtless the gods of Egypt were well known by name to the Israelites. Part of the glory of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Exodus 3:14

I AM THAT I AM . No better translation can be given of the Hebrew words. " I will be that I will be (Geddes) is more literal, but less idiomatic, since the Hebrew was the simplest possible form of the verb substantive. " I am because I am" (Boothroyd) is wrong, since the word asher is certainly the relative. The Septuagint, ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ὤν , explains rather than translates, but is otherwise unobjectionable. The Vulgate, sum qui sum , has absolute exactness. The idea... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Exodus 3:11

Who am I - These words indicate humility (compare Numbers 12:3), not fear. He feared failure, owing to incompetency, especially in the power of expression. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Exodus 3:12

A token unto thee - Or the sign. The word means a declaration or promise of God, which rests absolutely on His word, and demands faith. The promise that God would have the people serve Him in that place was an assurance, if fully believed, that all intervening obstacles would be removed by His power. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Exodus 3:13

What is his name - The meaning of this question is evidently: “By which name shall I tell them that the promise is confirmed?” Each name of the Deity represented some aspect or manifestation of His attributes (compare the introduction to Genesis). What Moses needed was not a new name, but direction to use that name which would bear in itself a pledge of accomplishment. Moses was familiar with the Egyptian habit of choosing from the names of the gods that which bore specially upon the wants and... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Exodus 3:14

I am that I am - That is, “I am what I am.” The words express absolute, and therefore unchanging and eternal Being. The name, which Moses was thus commissioned to use, was at once new and old; old in its connection with previous revelations; new in its full interpretation, and in its bearing upon the covenant of which Moses was the destined mediator. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Exodus 3:10

Exodus 3:10. I will send thee And the same hand that now fetched a shepherd out of a desert to be the planter of the Jewish Church, afterward fetched fishermen from their ships to be the planters of the Christian Church, that the excellency of the power might be of God. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Exodus 3:11

Exodus 3:11. Who am I? He thinks himself unworthy of the honour, and unable for the work. He thinks he wants courage, and therefore cannot go to Pharaoh: he thinks he wants conduct, and therefore cannot bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt They are unarmed, undisciplined, quite dispirited, utterly unable to help themselves. Moses was incomparably the fittest of any man living for this work, eminent for learning, wisdom, experience, valour, faith, holiness, and yet he says, ... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Exodus 3:12

Exodus 3:12. Certainly I will be with thee Those that are weak in themselves, yet may do wonders, being strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. God’s presence puts wisdom and strength into the weak and foolish, and is enough to answer all objections. read more
