It will be said in that day, “Behold, this is our God.We have waited for
him to free us. This is Jehovah whom we have waited for.Let us rejoice
and be glad in his salvation.” (Isaiah 25 : 9 )
The voice of one crying in the desert, “Prepare a way for Jehovah;make
a level pathway in the solitude for our God.For the glory of Jehovahwill
be revealed, and all flesh will see it together. Behold, the Lord Jehovih is
coming with strength;like a shepherdhe will feed his flock.” (Isaiah 40 : 3 ,
5 , 10 , 11 )
[ 3 ] The angel said, “Since Jehovah himself came into the world and
took on a human manifestation, therefore in the Prophets Jehovah is
called the Saviorand the Redeemer.”
Then the angel read them the following passages:
“The only Godis among you; there is no other God.” Surely you are
the God who was hidden, O God the Savior of Israel.(Isaiah 45 : 14 , 15 )
Am not I Jehovah?There is no other God except me. I am a just God,
and there is no Savior except me.(Isaiah 45 : 21 , 22 )
I am Jehovah, and there is no Savior except me.(Isaiah 43 : 11 )
I am Jehovah your God, and you are not to acknowledge a God except
me. There is no Savior except me.(Hosea 13 : 4 )
So that all flesh may know that I, Jehovah, am your Savior and your
Redeemer.(Isaiah 49 : 26 ; 60 : 16 )
As for our Redeemer, Jehovah Sabaoth is his name.(Isaiah 47 : 4 )
Their Redeemer is strong; Jehovah Sabaoth is his name.(Jeremiah 50 : 34 )
Jehovah,my rock and my Redeemer.(Psalms 19 : 14 )
Thus says Jehovah, your Redeemer,the Holy One of Israel: “I am Jehovah,
your God.” (Isaiah 48 : 17 ; 43 : 14 ; 49 : 7 ; 54 : 8 )
You, Jehovah,are our Father; our Redeemerfrom everlasting is your
name. (Isaiah 63 : 16 )
