mount of the Lord it shall be seen,” has been regarded as equivalent to the
saying, “Man’s extremity is God’s opportunity.” - JEHOVAH-NISSI Jehovah my banner, the title given by Moses to the
altar which he erected on the hill on the top of which he stood with
uplifted hands while Israel prevailed over their enemies the Amalekites

to the altar he erected on the spot at Ophrah where the angel appeared to
him (Judges 6:24). - JEHOVAH-SHAMMAH Jehovah is there, the symbolical title given by
