Know YHWH

“And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.” — John 17:3

Welcome to Know YHWH, a comprehensive resource for understanding the God of the Bible — His nature, His names, His covenants, and His plan of redemption through Jesus Christ.

The Hebrew name YHWH (יהוה) is the personal, covenant name of God, revealed to Moses at the burning bush (Exodus 3:14). To know God is not merely intellectual assent but intimate, relational understanding — the kind of knowledge Scripture calls us to pursue above all else.

“Let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD who practices steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth. For in these things I delight, declares the LORD.” — Jeremiah 9:24
