13 Pero Moisés volvió a protestar:
—Si voy a los israelitas y les digo: “El Dios de sus antepasados me ha enviado a ustedes”, ellos me preguntarán: “¿Y cuál es el nombre de ese Dios?”. Entonces, ¿qué les responderé?

Éxodo 3:13 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 3:13

And Moses said unto God
Having received full satisfaction to his objection, taken from his own unfitness for such a service, and willing to have his way quite clear unto him, and his commission appear firm and valid to his people, he proceeds to observe another difficulty that might possibly arise: when I come unto the children of Israel:
out of Midian into Egypt; and shall say unto them, the God of your fathers hath sent me unto you;
with a message to them to receive him as his ambassador and their deliverer: and they shall say unto me, what is his name?
a question it was probable they would ask, not through ignorance, since in their distress they had called upon the name of the Lord, and cried unto him for help and deliverance; but either to try Moses, and what knowledge he had of God: or there being many names by which he had made himself known; and especially was wont to make use of a new name or title when he made a new appearance, or any eminent discovery of himself, they might be desirous of knowing what was the present name he took: what shall I say unto them?
what name shall I make mention of?

Éxodo 3:13 In-Context

11 Pero Moisés protestó:
—¿Quién soy yo para presentarme ante el faraón? ¿Quién soy yo para sacar de Egipto al pueblo de Israel?

12 Dios contestó:
—Yo estaré contigo. Y esta es la señal para ti de que yo soy quien te envía: cuando hayas sacado de Egipto al pueblo, adorarán a Dios en este mismo monte.

13 Pero Moisés volvió a protestar:
—Si voy a los israelitas y les digo: “El Dios de sus antepasados me ha enviado a ustedes”, ellos me preguntarán: “¿Y cuál es el nombre de ese Dios?”. Entonces, ¿qué les responderé?
Dios le contestó a Moisés:

14 —Y
Señor
Señor
.
Dile esto al pueblo de Israel: “Y
Señor
me ha enviado a ustedes”.

15 Dios también le dijo a Moisés:
—Así dirás al pueblo de Israel: “Yahveh,
el Dios de sus antepasados, el Dios de Abraham, el Dios de Isaac y el Dios de Jacob, me ha enviado a ustedes.
Este es mi nombre eterno,
el nombre que deben recordar por todas las generaciones”.
