7:17 In Hebrew culture, “name” refers to the nature or character of the person (Ex 34:5-7; Is 9:6). This is the meaning in the expression “the name of the LORD,” since “LORD” in the Hebrew text is actually the personal name Yahweh. In praising Yahweh’s “name,” the focus will be on his attributes and what they mean to the people of God. Here “the LORD Most High” points not only to Yahweh’s supremacy but also possibly to his association with Jerusalem from the time of Melchizedek, priest of “God Most High” (Gn 14:18-20).
