God Almighty:
El shadday, God Almighty; for shadday is evidently of affinity with the Arabic shadid, strong, mighty, and shiddat, strength, might; so the LXX in Job render it παντοκρατωρ, Vulgate, in Pentateuch, Omnipotens, and Syriac, in Job, chasino. "And when Abramª was¹ ninetyª ² yearsª oldª and nine,ª the LORDª appearedª ° to¹ Abram,ª and saidª ° unto¹ him, I¹ [am] the Almightyª God;ª walkª ° before¹ me,² and be¹ thou perfect.ª" {Gen 17:1} + "And Godª Almightyª blessª ° thee, and make thee fruitful,ª ° and multiplyª ° thee, that thou mayest be¹ a multitudeª of people;ª" {Gen 28:3} + "And Godª saidª ° unto him, I¹ [am] Godª Almighty:ª be fruitfulª ° and multiply;ª ° a nationª and a companyª of nationsª shall be¹ of¹ thee, and kingsª shall come² ° out¹ of thy loins;ª ¹" {Gen 35:11} + "And Jacobª saidª ° unto¹ Joseph,ª Godª Almightyª appearedª ° unto¹ me at Luzª in the landª of Canaan,ª and blessedª ° me," {Gen 48:3}

but by my name:
If Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, did not know the name Jehovah, then Moses must have used it in Genesis by prolepsis, or anticipation. Mr. Locke and others read it interrogatively, for the negative particle, lo, not, has frequently this power in Hebrew: "I appeared unto Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, and by my name Jehovah was I not also made known unto them?"

Jehovah:
"And Godª saidª ° unto¹ Moses,ª I AMª ° THAT¹ I AM:ª ° and he said,ª ° Thus¹ shalt thou sayª ° unto the childrenª of Israel,ª I AM¹ hath sentª ° me unto¹ you." {Exd 3:14} + "And the LORDª appearedª ° unto¹ Abram,ª and said,ª ° Unto thy seedª will I giveª °¹ thisª land:ª and there¹ buildedª ° he an altarª unto the LORD,ª who appearedª ° unto¹ him. ... And he removedª ° from thence¹ ¹ unto a mountainª on the eastª ¹ of Bethel,ª and pitchedª ° his tent,ª [having] Bethelª on the west,ª ¹ and Haiª on the east:ª ¹ and there¹ he buildedª ° an altarª unto the LORD,ª and calledª ° upon the nameª of the LORD.ª" {Gen 12:7-8} + "Then Abramª removed [his] tent,ª ° and cameª ° and dweltª ° in the plainª of Mamre,ª which¹ [is] in Hebron,ª and builtª ° there¹ an altarª unto the LORD.ª" {Gen 13:18} + "And Abrahamª calledª ° the nameª of that¹ placeª Jehovahjireh:ª asª it is saidª ° [to] this day,ª In the mountª of the LORDª it shall be seen.ª °" {Gen 22:14} + "Singª ° unto God,ª sing praisesª ° to his name:ª extolª ° him that ridethª ° upon the heavensª by his nameª JAH,ª and rejoiceª ° beforeª him." {Psa 68:4}, JAH, "That [men] may knowª ° that¹ thou,¹ whose nameª alone¹ [is] JEHOVAH,ª [art] the most highª over¹ all¹ the earth.ª" {Psa 83:18} + "I¹ [am] the LORD:ª that¹ [is] my name:ª and my gloryª will I not¹ giveª ° to another,ª neither my praiseª to graven images.ª" {Isa 42:8} + "Thus¹ saithª ° the LORDª the Kingª of Israel,ª and his redeemerª ° the LORDª of hosts;ª I¹ [am] the first,ª and I¹ [am] the last;ª and besideª ¹ me [there is] no¹ God.ª" {Isa 44:6} + "Now¹ therefore, what¹ have I here,¹ saithª ° the LORD,ª that¹ my peopleª is taken awayª ° for nought?ª they that rule² ° over¹ them make them to howl,ª ° saithª ° the LORD;ª and my nameª continuallyª every¹ dayª [is] blasphemed.ª ° ...
