• Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.”[245] Now in the Hebrew, not the present, but the future of the verb “to be” is used; and from the future the name Jehovah is derived. But the Hebrew future has a peculiar signification: it is often used to express a permanent state, that which exists and always will exist. Hence the words rendered “I AM THAT I AM” might be more intelligently translated “I EVER SHALL BE THAT WHICH I AM.” And thus “Jehovah” signifies the immutable God, the Same yesterday, to-day, and for ever.
