Compound Names of Jehovah
October 29, 2011

"In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS." (Jeremiah 23:6)

There are seven compound names of Jehovah in Scripture which together provide profound insight into the person and work of our Lord. The first of these identifies Jehovah, the God of the Covenant, with the Creator "the LORD God |'Jehovahelohim'| |who| made the earth and the heavens" (Genesis 2:4).

On finding a ram to sacrifice in place of his son, Isaac, "Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh |the Lord will provide|" (Genesis 22:14).

Contingent upon their keeping the law, God promised the people of Israel that "I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee |literally, 'Jehovah-rapha'|" (Exodus 15:26).

Fresh from a miraculous victory in the first battle of the people of Israel, "Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi |Jehovah the Victor|" (Exodus 17:15).

Once the Lord had commissioned Gideon to lead the people of Israel out of bondage, "Gideon built an altar there unto the LORD, and called it Jehovahshalom |Jehovah sends peace|" (Judges 6:24).

In a passage concerning the future regathering and conversion of Israel quoted in our text, we see that Israel refers to the "Lord our righteousness |'Jehovah-tsidkenu'|."

Finally, in the last verse of his book, Ezekiel describes the absorbing charm of the heavenly city and the One who will preside over it, claiming, "The name of the city from that day shall be, The LORD is there |'Jehovah-shama,' Jehovah the indweller|" (Ezekiel 48:35).

And best of all, He is all seven to us. JDM

I forgot but I have written in the back of my bible names and one of them I didn't see on your list was
Jehovah-Mekoddishkem -The God who sanctifies you -Exodus 31:13, Lev. 20:8(?)blurry, Lev 21:3,15,23
