The use of "LORD GOD" reflects the Hebrew names Yahweh and Elohim, emphasizing both the covenantal and powerful aspects of God. This duality is seen throughout the Old Testament, where God is both a personal deity in relationship with His people and the omnipotent Creator.<p><b>You have begun to show Your greatness and power</b><br>Moses is speaking here, recognizing that God has only just begun to reveal His full might and majesty. This acknowledgment comes after the Israelites have witnessed numerous miracles, such as the plagues in Egypt, the parting of the Red Sea, and victories over powerful kings. It suggests that God's power is inexhaustible and continually unfolding. This theme of progressive revelation is echoed in the New Testament, where the full revelation of God's power is seen in Jesus Christ.<p><b>to Your servant.</b><br>Moses refers to himself as God's servant, highlighting his role as a humble and obedient follower. This term is significant in biblical literature, as many key figures, including David and the prophets, are described as servants of God. It underscores the relationship between God and His chosen leaders, who are called to serve His purposes.<p><b>For what god in heaven or on earth</b><br>This rhetorical question emphasizes the uniqueness and supremacy of the God of Israel. In the ancient Near Eastern context, many cultures worshiped a pantheon of gods, each with limited power and domain. Moses contrasts these with the one true God, who reigns supreme over all creation. This exclusivity is a central tenet of monotheism and is reinforced throughout the Bible, notably in the Ten Commandments.<p><b>can perform such works and mighty acts as Yours?</b><br>The "works and mighty acts" refer to the miraculous events and divine interventions that have characterized Israel's journey. These acts serve as evidence of God's unparalleled power and faithfulness. The Bible frequently recounts these deeds to remind the Israelites of God's covenant and to encourage trust in His promises. In the New Testament, the miracles of Jesus are seen as a continuation and fulfillment of these mighty acts, demonstrating His divine authority and identity as the Son of God.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a></b><br>The speaker of this verse, Moses is addressing God in prayer.
