NAMES OF GOD

 



SO, WHY THE GENERIC WORD "GOD" RATHER THAN THE SACRED PROPER NAME????



The Bible uses several primary names and hundreds of descriptive titles for God, most notably Yahweh (the sacred personal name "LORD"), Elohim (Creator God), and Adonai (Lord and Master). [12345]
Primary Hebrew Names
  • Yahweh (YHWH / Jehovah): "I AM WHO I AM"; God's proper personal and relational name.
  • Elohim: "Creator, Mighty and Strong"; the plural form indicating supreme power.
  • Adonai: "Lord" or "Master"; emphasizing human submission and reverence.
  • El / Eloah: "The strong and mighty one". [12]
Compound Descriptive Names (Jehovah / Yahweh titles)
  • Jehovah-Jireh: "The Lord Will Provide" (Genesis 22:14)
  • Jehovah-Rapha: "The Lord Who Heals" (Exodus 15:26)
  • Jehovah-Nissi: "The Lord My Banner" (Exodus 17:15)
  • Jehovah-Shalom: "The Lord Is Peace" (Judges 6:24)
  • Jehovah-Raah (Rohi): "The Lord My Shepherd" (Psalm 23:1)
  • Jehovah-Tsidkenu: "The Lord Our Righteousness" (Jeremiah 23:6)
  • Jehovah-Shammah: "The Lord Is There" (Ezekiel 48:35)
  • Jehovah-Sabaoth: "The Lord of Hosts"
  • Jehovah-Mekoddishkem: "The Lord Who Sanctifies You" [12345]
El Compound Names
  • El Shaddai: "God Almighty" or "The All-Sufficient One"
  • El Elyon: "The Most High God"
  • El Olam: "The Everlasting God"
  • El Roi: "The God of Seeing"
  • El Kanna: "Jealous God" [123]
If you'd like, I can:
  • Provide a list of names and titles given to Jesus in the New Testament
  • Look up the specific biblical verses for any of these names
  • Explain the historical context behind when a specific name was first used
