The Two Covenants
Blessings For Peace In Jerusalem, Judae - EL SHADDAI MINISTRIES **MESSAGE** December 12, 2020: Vayeshev (And He Dwelt) The Covenants Names of God: Yahweh Yireh "The name Hosea, meaning 'salvation', or 'He saves', or 'He helps', seems to have been not uncommon, being derived from the auspicious verb from which we have the frequently recurring word salvation. It may be a contraction of a larger form of which the divine name (YHWH) or its abbreviation formed a part, so as to signify "YHWH helps". Further insight into the context of the name is given in the Torah in Numbers 13:16, which states that Hosea was also the original name of Joshua, son of Nun until Moses gave him the longer, theophoric name Yehoshua (Hebrew: יְהוֹשֻֽׁעַ). Rashi writes in Sotah 34b that Joshua is a compound name of יה (Yah) and הושע (Hosea, “Yah may save”). [3]" ~ Hosea at Wikipedia, The Free E
