Paragraph 1. I BELIEVE IN GOD
206
In revealing his mysterious name, YHWH (“I AM HE WHO IS”, “I AM WHO
AM” or “I AM WHO I AM”), God says who he is and by what name he
is to be called. This divine name is mysterious just as God is mystery. It is
at once a name revealed and something like the refusal of a name, and hence it
better expresses God as what he is – infinitely above everything that we can
understand or say: he is the “hidden God”, his name is ineffable, and
he is the God who makes himself close to men.11
