Vs 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil: for thou art with me He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Vs 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. The names are revealed by His promises and His works and they remind us of our God’s ever-present love, peace, comfort, help, and more! The Names of God in Psalm 23 Now let’s read Psalm 23 and find the 11 names of our great God hidden in this psalm. You can read about a remez in Revelation 7 here and one in Genesis 5 here. What’s a remez? In Jewish hermeneutics (interpretation of Scripture), a remez is a hidden message, or a deeper meaning found below the surface or behind the words. (Excerpted from the article, “ In addition to Yahweh (YHVH), Yeshua and Jesus, what other names for God are in the Bible?” Read the names for Jesus and the Holy Spirit.) A Remez in Psalm 23 Jehovah-InKaddesh – The Lord Which Sanctifies – Leviticus 20:7-8, Lev 21:15, Lev 21:23, Lev 22:9, Lev 22:16 Compound Names of God - El + a Descriptive WordĮl-shaddai – The Almighty God – Genesis 17:1, Gen 28:3, Gen 35:11 Ruth 1:20-21 Ruth 31 x in Job Ezekiel 10:5Įl-elyon – The Most High God – Genesis 14:19, 22 Deuteronomy 32:8 Isaiah 14:14Įl-elyon – Possessor of Heaven and Earth, Part II – Genesis 14:19, 22 Deuteronomy 32:8 Isaiah 14:14, Daniel 3: 26, 4:17 Psalm 56:2Įlohim – Kurios – Matthew 22:44 Luke 19:31, 33, 34 Matthew 12:8 John 13:13 Matthew 6:24 Revelation 17:14 Jehovah-Shama – The Lord is Present – Ezekiel 48:35 Exodus 33:14 Matthew 28:20 Hebrews 13:5 John 14:16-17 Romans 8:9 Jehovah-raah – The Lord My Shepherd – Psalm 23:1 (shepherd) Ezekiel 34:11-15 (companion) Jeremiah 3:12-16 (pastors) Judges 14:20 (friend) Exodus 33:11 (friend) Jehovah-tsidkeneau – The Lord Our Righteousness – Jeremiah 23:6 Jehovah-shalom – The Lord Gives Peace – Judges 6:24 Jehovah-nissi – The Lord Our Banner – Exodus 17:15 Jehovah-rawfaw – The Lord That Makes Whole – Exodus 15:26 Jeremiah 33:6 1 Kings 18:30 Job 5:17,18 Psalms 103:3 Psalms 146:3 Jehovah-jireh – The Lord Will See To It – Genesis 22:14
Compound Names of God - Jehovah + a Descriptive Word The compound names of God are very helpful in understanding many of God’s attributes. Descriptive Hebrew words are added to Jehovah or El to create a compound name that reveals God’s work in our lives or gives insight into His nature and character. This name is translated as LORD in our Bibles. It is a pronunciation of the covenant name of God YHVH, which is also pronounced Yahweh. Jehovah is the Anglicized form of Jehovah. The compound names begin with the name Jehovah or El. I believe this is a remez (something hidden) that was revealed to me by the Holy Spirit– the best Teacher in the whole world. In preparing for the teaching on Psalm 23, I began to see many names of God revealed by the works of the Great Shepherd. Prior to teaching that study, I had completed a study on the names of God. The teaching on those psalms was from a four-week, 2010 Bible study I taught on seeing Jesus as our Shepherd. He is our Saviour, our Sanctifier, and our Sovereign.
Last week I shared how Psalms 22, 23, and 24 reveal the Person and works of our Shepherd, the Lord Jesus Christ.
