Topical Encyclopedia The term "Jehovah-What" does not appear directly in the Bible; however, it can be understood as a placeholder for the various compound names of God that begin with "Jehovah" (YHWH), each revealing a different aspect of His character and relationship with His people. These compound names are derived from the Hebrew tradition and are used throughout the Old Testament to describe God's nature and His covenantal relationship with Israel.1. Jehovah-Jireh (The Lord Will Provide) Found in Genesis 22:14, this name is revealed when God provides a ram as a substitute sacrifice for Isaac. Abraham names the place "The LORD Will Provide," signifying God's provision for His people. Genesis 22:14 : "And Abraham called that place The LORD Will Provide. So to this day it is said, 'On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided.'" 2. Jehovah-Rapha (The Lord Who Heals) This name is introduced in Exodus 15:26, where God promises healing to the Israelites if they obey His commandments. It underscores God's power to heal both physical and spiritual ailments. Exodus 15:26 : "He said, 'If you will listen carefully to the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in His eyes, if you pay attention to His commandments and keep all His statutes, then I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians. For I am the LORD who heals you.'" 3. Jehovah-Nissi (The Lord Is My Banner) In Exodus 17:15, after the Israelites' victory over the Amalekites, Moses builds an altar and names it "The LORD Is My Banner," symbolizing God's protection and leadership in battle. Exodus 17:15 : "And Moses built an altar and named it The LORD Is My Banner." 4. Jehovah-Shalom (The Lord Is Peace) Gideon encounters this name in Judges 6:24 after receiving assurance of peace from God amidst the oppression of the Midianites. It highlights God's provision of peace in times of turmoil. Judges 6:24 : "So Gideon built an altar to the LORD there and called it The LORD Is Peace. To this day it stands in Ophrah of the Abiezrites." 5. Jehovah-Raah (The Lord Is My Shepherd) While not directly named in this form, the concept is beautifully expressed in Psalm 23, where David describes the Lord as his shepherd, guiding and providing for him. Psalm 23:1 : "The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want." 6. Jehovah-Tsidkenu (The Lord Our Righteousness) This name is found in Jeremiah 23:6, where God promises a future king from David's line who will reign righteously. It points to God's provision of righteousness for His people. Jeremiah 23:6 : "In His days Judah will be saved, and Israel will dwell securely. And this is His name by which He will be called: The LORD Our Righteousness." 7. Jehovah-Shammah (The Lord Is There) This name appears in Ezekiel 48:35, describing the future city of Jerusalem, emphasizing God's eternal presence with His people. Ezekiel 48:35 : "The perimeter of the city will be 18,000 cubits, and the name of the city from that day on will be: The LORD Is There." These compound names of Jehovah reflect the multifaceted nature of God as understood in the Hebrew Scriptures.
