Genesis 2:18
King James Version
6 Jun 2026
“And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.”
טוֹב

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.
