—Exodus 3:13-18
by: J. Gabriel Alegre.
Moses asked the question, “What is his name?” in reference to the statement, “the God of your fathers has sent me to you.” God did not give a name. He responded by saying, “I AM WHO I AM.” God continued by saying to Moses that he was to remind the Israelites of the fact that God was the same God who Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob had worshipped. God not only established his credentials but importantly used the occasion to remind them of their heritage and that his name was a memorial to all generations. He is the God who sees and hears, and the God who noticed the afflictions of the people of Israel.
