1 | How important is God's Name? | Matt 6:9 | Ray | 143250 | ||
Hi Doc, Do you know the reference number for the post that you are referring to? The Hebrew word "Shem" is "shame". So there is a definite play on words in Zephaniah 3:19, "And I will turn their shame into praise and renown In all the earth." The word "name" means praise and fame, also renown. The NKJ for Zephaniah 3:19 reads, "...I will appoint them for praise and fame In every land where they were put to shame." Here we have the idea of being "called" or "appointed". He gathers us together and gives us fame and praise instead of shame. It should give us impetus to carry the name of Christian and give praise to the King of kings and Lord of lords. Psalm 79:9, "Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of Thy name; And deliver us, and forgive our sins, for (Thy) name's sake." Zephaniah 3:15, NKJ, "The Lord has taken away your judgments, He has cast out your enemy. The King of Israel, the (Lord), is in your midst;..." 1) Al Novak in his book "Hebrew Honey" has this to say: NAME: "Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of Thy name; and deliver us and purge our sins, for Thy name's sake'", (Ps. 79:9). Shem means: A sign, a mark which one receives. The name of Jehovah was set by divine authority--Jer. 11:21; 26:9. Renown--Gen. 11:4. While here the attempt at renown was foiled and properly so, God's renown is everywhere hailed and justified. Praise and fame--Zeph. 3:19. This Hebrew word is so used here as to carry the idea of fame and praise. This is good use of it in connection with God. Monument--Isa. 55:13. An impressive and glorious color is seen in the word as used in this passage. This is due God and much more. End of quote. I trust that that was of interest to you. From the heart, Ray |

It was from 143113. I pretty much just cut and paste it in this thread. Yes, in Hebrew call, listen, and name are all linked to gether, as I recall, in one word. In Him, Doc |

Hi Doc, #131315 was what I was looking for in order to get some more of your thoughts. I think that we need to know and confess that Jesus is Lord. I appreciated your Scriptures in that prior post, #131315. From the heart, Ray |
