Exodus 28:20
King James Version
7 Jun 2026
“And the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper: they shall be set in gold in their inclosings.”
הָיָה
I AM. Hayah. The self-existent one. When Moses asked God His name God said I AM THAT I AM. Not I was or I will be but I AM. Always present always existing always enough. Jesus used the same words: before Abraham was I AM.
