The LORD’s self-revelation in the Old Testament
In Ex 3:14, the LORD declared His being with the expression “I AM WHO I AM.” The expression in Greek, Ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ὤν, contains the <i>egō eimi,</i> ἐγὼ εἰμί (“I am”) self-identification Jesus uses repeatedly.
The LORD often identified Himself with “I am…” [footnote text=“The expression "I am" can be seen in the LXX version of the following verses”]
“I am he who blots out your transgressions (Isa 43:25)
“I am God” (Isa 45:22; 46:9; Hos 11:9)
“I am the first and I am forever” (Isa 48:12)
“I am he who comforts you” (Isa 51:12)
“I am he who speaks” (Isa 52:6)
“I am a great king” (Mal 1:14)
The absolute form of <i>egō eimi,</i> ἐγὼ εἰμί (“I am”) is found in the Greek version of the Old Testament Scriptures. It is the LORD’s declaration of His eternal existence, uniqueness, and salvation (Deut 32:39; Isa 43:10–11, 25; 45:18, 19; 46:4; 47:8, 10; 51:12).
