Jesus, There’s Just something about that Name The Names of God Jesus, There’s Just something about that Name

Outline Names of God in the Hebrew Bible Names of Jesus in the New Testament Using the Names of God in prayer

Names of God Significance of names in the Bible and the Ancient Near East Names speak to one’s characteristics, one’s “essence.” Deities in the Ancient Near East were known by their names Baal, Shemesh, Dagon

YHWH God’s personal name Unlike all the other names, not a title Speaks to God’s essence אהיה אשׁר אהיה “ I am that I am,” or…

No tense, rather aspect in Biblical Hebrew Two kinds of action Completed Action, perfect Incomplete Action, imperfect God’s name is in the imperfect Present, “I am,” or future, “I will be”

Names of God in OT YHWH El- _______ YHWH ________

Names of God in NT - Jesus Jesus is Son of God God made flesh/incarnate Fully God and fully human Names for Jesus What these names tell us about how God makes gods self known to us

Names for Jesus in the Gospel of John 4 Gospels 3 Synoptic = see together Matthew, Mark, Luke John In a category to itself Highly symbolic “signs,” not miracles No parables

Where there are no parables there must be metaphors… Figure of speech that makes reference to one thing by using another Take two images from different contexts and bring them together. Neither thing is the same after that When this happens, new meaning is made Psalms: The Lord is my rock The Lord’s Prayer “Our Father”

Metaphors have a tension They push our understanding of reality They have the potential to transform the way we see, think, understand

How do we explain the unknowable? How do we take on new information? Use what we know… Parables…The kingdom of God is like… Metaphors: Help us to get our head around the incarnation

I am… “ I am…” statements Playing off of the divine name, “I am that I am” What happens when “I am” becomes flesh?

I am... The Bread of Life, 6:35 The Light of the World, 8:12 The Gate, 10:9 The Good Shepherd, 10:11 The Resurrection and the Life, 11:25-26 The Way, the Truth and the Life, 14:6 The Vine, 15:5

I am the bread of life John 6 Feeding of the Five thousand Jesus walks on water Manna from the sky and true bread from heaven What is the hardest part about this chapter?

I am the light of the world Light in creation Light in the temple Light as a sign of the presence of God Jesus is the light Truth claim

I am the gate I am the good shepherd Gate as the point of access Shepherd imagery

I am the vine John 15 Location of this I am saying in the larger narrative Extensive metaphor Descriptive and Instructive Roles of the father and the son Roles for us

Homework John 11:25-26 I am the resurrection and the life John 14:6 I am the way, the truth and the life
