Subject: His diff relation to Creation Gen ch 1-2 |
Bible Note: I am not sure how you have such confidence in the meaning of a word that you don't have the correct vocalization for to tell how it should be parsed. Biblical Hebrew verb tenses are also not specifically past, present or future. I see a Karite document www.karaite-korner.org/yhwh_2.pdf that discusses possibilities. You might find a Rabbinic one from a Reform scholar. If you are relating it to Ex 3:14 then Pratico says on page 305 of Basics of Biblical Hebrew 'This construction allows for "I am who/what I am" or "I will be who/what I will be."' |
