I. “Hallowed be Thy Name”
2810
In the promise to Abraham and the oath that accompanied it,71 God
commits himself but without disclosing his name. He begins to reveal it to
Moses and makes it known clearly before the eyes of the whole people when he
saves them from the Egyptians: “he has triumphed gloriously.”72
From the covenant of Sinai onwards, this people is “his own” and it
is to be a “holy (or “consecrated”: the same word is used for
both in Hebrew) nation,”73 because the name of God dwells in it.
