1 Un varón de la familia de Leví fue, y tomó por mujer una hija de Leví;

2 la cual concibió, y le dio a luz un hijo; y viéndole que era hermoso, le tuvo escondido tres meses.

3 Y no pudiendo tenerle más escondido, tomó una arquilla de juncos, y la calafateó con pez y betún, y colocó en ella al niño, y lo puso en un carrizal a la orilla del río.

4 Y se paró una hermana suya a lo lejos, para ver lo que le acontecería.

5 Y la hija del Faraón descendió a lavarse al río, y paseándose sus doncellas por la ribera del río, vio ella la arquilla en el carrizal, y envió una criada suya a que la tomase.

6 Y cuando la abrió, vio al niño; y he aquí que el niño lloraba. Y teniendo compasión de él, dijo: De los niños de los hebreos es éste.

7 Entonces su hermana dijo a la hija del Faraón: ¿Iré a llamarte un ama de las hebreas, para que te críe este niño?

8 Y la hija del Faraón respondió: Ve. Entonces fue la doncella, y llamó a la madre del niño;

9 a la cual dijo la hija de Faraón: Lleva este niño, y críamelo, y yo te lo pagaré. Y la mujer tomó al niño, y lo crió.

10 Y cuando creció el niño, ella lo trajo a la hija del Faraón, la cual lo prohijó, y le puso por nombre Moisés, diciendo: Porque de las aguas lo saqué.

11 Y en aquellos días acaeció que , crecido ya Moisés, salió a sus hermanos, y vio sus cargas; y observó a un varón egipcio que hería a un hebreo de sus hermanos.

12 Y miró a todas partes, y viendo que no parecía haber nadie, mató al egipcio, y lo escondió en la arena.

13 Y salió al día siguiente, y viendo a dos hebreos que reñían, dijo al malo: ¿Por qué hieres a tu prójimo?

14 Y él respondió: ¿Quién te ha puesto a ti por príncipe y juez sobre nosotros? ¿Piensas matarme como mataste al egipcio? Entonces Moisés tuvo miedo, y dijo: Ciertamente esta cosa es descubierta.

15 Y oyendo el Faraón este negocio, procuró matar a Moisés; mas Moisés huyó de delante del Faraón, y habitó en la tierra de Madián; y se sentó junto a un pozo.

16 Tenía el sacerdote de Madián siete hijas, las cuales vinieron a sacar agua, para llenar las pilas y dar de beber a las ovejas de su padre.

17 Mas los pastores vinieron, y las echaron. Entonces Moisés se levantó y las defendió, y dio de beber a sus ovejas.

18 Y volviendo ellas a Reuel su padre, él les dijo: ¿Por qué habéis hoy venido tan presto?

19 Y ellas respondieron: Un varón egipcio nos defendió de mano de los pastores, y también nos sacó el agua, y dio de beber a las ovejas.

20 Y dijo a sus hijas: ¿Y dónde está? ¿Por qué habéis dejado ese hombre? Llamadle para que coma pan.

21 Y Moisés acordó en morar con aquel varón; y él dio a Moisés a su hija Séfora,

22 la cual le dio a luz un hijo, y él le puso por nombre Gersón, porque dijo: Peregrino soy en tierra ajena.

23 Y aconteció que después de muchos días murió el rey de Egipto, y los hijos de Israel suspiraron a causa de la servidumbre, y clamaron, y su clamor subió a Dios desde su servidumbre.

24 Y oyó Dios el gemido de ellos, y se acordó de su pacto con Abraham, Isaac y Jacob.

25 Y miró Dios a los hijos de Israel, y los reconoció Dios.

6795. 'And he called his name Gershom' means the essential nature of them, of those truths. This is clear from the meaning of 'the name' and 'calling the name' as the essential nature, dealt with in 144, 145, 1754, 2009, 2724, 3006, 3421, 6674, 'Gershom' implies the essential nature of those truths, which is that they are the truths in which he received instruction in a Church that was not his own - the meaning in what immediately follows.

2724. 'And there he called on the name of [Jehovah,] the God of Eternity' means worship from it. This is clear from the meaning of 'calling on the name of God' as worship, dealt with in 440. Those who belonged to the Ancient Church did not understand merely name by the word 'name' but the entire nature, see 144, 145, 340, 768, 1754, 1896, 2009. Thus by 'the name of God' they understood everything in one embrace by which God was worshipped, consequently everything of love and faith. But once the internal aspect of worship perished and only the external was left people began to understand nothing else by 'the name of God' than the name. Indeed they went so far as to worship the name itself, being quite indifferent to what the love and the faith were in which their worship was grounded. As a result of this nations began to identify themselves by the names of their gods, the Jews and Israelites setting themselves above the rest because they worshipped Jehovah. They made the utterance and the calling upon the name itself the essential feature of worship; but in fact worship of the name alone is not worship at all, for that practice may exist even among the worst of people who in worshipping the name alone become greater profaners.

[2] Now because 'the name of God' means the entirety of worship, that is, the love and faith in their entirety from which He is worshipped, it is therefore clear what is meant by hallowed be Your name - in the Lord's Prayer, Matthew 6:9, and what by the following words spoken by the Lord,

You will be hated by everyone for My name's sake. Matthew 10:22.

If two of you agree in My name on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by My Father who is in heaven. Where two or three are gathered in My name, there am I in the midst of them. Matthew 18:19-20.

He who leaves houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields, for My name's sake, will receive a hundredfold and will be allotted the inheritance of eternal life. Matthew 19:29.

Hosanna to the son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Matthew 21:9.

Jesus said, You will not see Me from now on until you say, Blessed is the one coming in the name of the Lord. Matthew 23:39.

You will be hated by all nations for My name's sake. Then many will stumble and betray one another, and hate one another, and all for My name's sake. 1 Matthew 24:9-10.

As many as received Him, to them He gave power to be sons of God, to those believing in His name, John 1:12.

He who does not believe is judged already because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 3:17-18.

Jesus said, Whatever you ask in My name, I will do it. John 14:14-15; 15:16; 16:23-24, 26-27.

Jesus said, I have manifested Your name to men. John 17:6.

Holy Father, keep them in Your name whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are one. John 17:11-12.

I made known to them Your name, and I will make known that the love with which You have loved Me may be in them, and I in them. John 17:26.

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.

There are in addition very many places in the Old Testament in which the name of Jehovah and of God is not used to mean the name but love and faith in their entirety in which worship is grounded.

[3] But those who worship the name alone, without love and faith, are spoken of in Matthew as follows,

Many will say to Me on that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy through Your name, and cast out demons through Your name, and do many mighty works in Your name? But I will confess to them, I do not know you; depart from Me, you workers of iniquity. Matthew 7:22-23.

As has been stated, once the member of the Church from being internal became external, and began to make worship consist in a name alone, people no longer acknowledged one God but many. For it was a custom among the ancients to add something after the name of Jehovah and by doing that to call to mind some benefit or attribute of His, as in the present verse, 'He called on the name of [Jehovah,] the God of Eternity'. Another example occurs in the next chapter,

Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah Jireh (that is, Jehovah will see). Genesis 22:14.

And the following, among others, are further examples,

Moses built an altar and called the name of it Jehovah Nissi (that is, Jehovah is my banner). Exodus 17:15.

Gideon built an altar to Jehovah and called it [the altar] of Jehovah Shalom (that is, of peace). Judges 6:24.

It was from this custom that those who made worship consist in a name alone came to acknowledge so many gods, and also that among the gentiles, especially those in Greece and Rome, so many gods came to be acknowledged and worshipped, whereas the Ancient Church from which those attributive names derived always worshipped but one God who was revered under so many names, for the reason that by 'name' they understood the essential nature.
