3443. 'And he called on the name of Jehovah' means the worship derived from there. This is clear from the meaning of 'calling on the name of Jehovah' as worship, dealt with in 440, 2724, and the fact that 'the name of Jehovah' is everything in its entirety by which the Lord is worshipped, 2628, 2724, 3006.

3006. These are the things that angels perceive when the names Jesus Christ are used, and the things that are meant by its being said that in no other name is there salvation, and by what the Lord stated so many times concerning His name, as in John,

Whatever you ask in My name, I will do. John 14:13-14.

In the same gospel,

These things have been written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name. John 20:31.

And elsewhere. 'His name' means everything in its entirety by which the Lord is worshipped, and so the essential nature of all worship and doctrine, see 2724. Here therefore the good of love and charity is meant when joined to the truth of faith, which constitutes the fabric of doctrine and worship in their entirety.
