In the ancient Near Eastern context, a name was more than a label; it represented the essence of a person. The enduring nature of God's name reflects His eternal existence and unchanging nature, as seen in <a href="/exodus/3-14.htm">Exodus 3:14</a> where God reveals Himself as "I AM WHO I AM." This phrase emphasizes God's sovereignty and faithfulness throughout history, as His name has been revered and worshipped from generation to generation. The eternal aspect of God's name is also a reminder of His covenant promises, which are everlasting and reliable.<p><b>Your renown, O LORD, through all generations</b><br>The renown of the LORD refers to His fame and the mighty acts He has performed throughout history. This includes the deliverance of Israel from Egypt, the giving of the Law at Sinai, and the establishment of the Davidic kingdom. God's renown is not limited to a single generation but is proclaimed and remembered across all ages, as seen in <a href="/deuteronomy/6-4.htm">Deuteronomy 6:4-9</a>, where the Israelites are instructed to teach their children about God's deeds. This phrase also points to the prophetic fulfillment in Jesus Christ, whose life, death, and resurrection have made God's renown known to all nations, fulfilling the promise to Abraham that all peoples on earth will be blessed through him (<a href="/genesis/12-3.htm">Genesis 12:3</a>). The continuity of God's renown through generations underscores His unchanging nature and the perpetual relevance of His works and character.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The LORD (Yahweh)</a></b><br>The covenant name of God, emphasizing His eternal nature and faithfulness to His people.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/g/generations.htm">Generations</a></b><br>Refers to the successive groups of people throughout history who witness and testify to God's enduring presence and renown.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_eternal_nature_of_god.htm">The Eternal Nature of God</a></b><br>God's name and character are unchanging, providing a foundation of stability and trust for believers.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/g/generational_faithfulness.htm">Generational Faithfulness</a></b><br>God's renown is passed down through generations, encouraging us to share His works and faithfulness with future generations.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/g/god's_sovereignty.htm">God's Sovereignty</a></b><br>Recognizing God's eternal nature helps us trust in His sovereign plan, even when circumstances seem uncertain.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/w/worship_and_praise.htm">Worship and Praise</a></b><br>As God's name endures forever, our response should be one of continual worship and praise, acknowledging His greatness.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/l/legacy_of_faith.htm">Legacy of Faith</a></b><br>We are called to leave a legacy of faith, ensuring that God's renown is known and celebrated by those who come after us.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_psalm_135.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Psalm 135</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what's_the_bible's_view_on_astrology.htm">What is the Bible's stance on astrology?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/evidence_for_psalm_13's_distress.htm">Where is the historical or archaeological evidence that supports the specific distress described in Psalm 13?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what's_the_meaning_of_'king_of_glory'.htm">What is the meaning of 'King of Glory'?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_is_jerusalem's_'new_name'_reconciled.htm">How does the promise of a “new name” for Jerusalem in Isaiah 62:2 reconcile with other biblical passages that describe unchanging divine names? </a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/psalms/135.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(13) This verse is from <a href="/exodus/3-15.htm" title="And God said moreover to Moses, Thus shall you say to the children of Israel, the LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial to all generations.">Exodus 3:15</a>.<p><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/psalms/135.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 13.</span> -
