Shlama Qashisha Henry,
I read your article and found your presentation of Yeshua as The "I AM" especially interesting, as I have translated The Peshitta NT, and have used Lamsa's translation of Exodus 3:14 "Ahiah Asher High" -"I AM The Living God" in translating our Lord's many "Ena na" ("I AM") statements, to emphasize His claim to Deity. I know Lamsa's is not literally accurate, but it conveys the power and majesty of that Name above all names.
Welcome to the forum. I am sure many will want to pick your brain.
Burkta b'Maran,
