The Names of God: Jehovah Shammah
/Jehovah Shammah, meaning "God is there" as used in Ezekiel, may seem at first like it keeps God at a distance. God's omnipresence means that "God is there" is never at the cost of "God is here". However, by looking into this name, we realize the beauty of hope, the beauty of blessing "the other", and even the beauty in the separation of "here" and "there".
