What is name of the GOD?

Who is Ishi?
Wasnt he cheif of some indian tribe?


There is a Hebrew explanation, but some of it isn't really Biblical from a Christian perspective.
For example the article above tries to say Adam is just an abstract of humans at the time, not a specific man.

Why is this a problem? This breaks several verses in the Bible. For example...

Rom 5:15; But the free gift is not like the transgression. For if by the transgression of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many.
Rom 5:16; The gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned; for on the one hand the judgment arose from one transgression resulting in condemnation, but on the other hand the free gift arose from many transgressions resulting in justification.
Rom 5:17; For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.
Rom 5:18; So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men.
Rom 5:19; For as through the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the One the many will be made righteous.

We have "the one" who sinned.. ( Adam ), and then we have the "the one" who was righteous and obedient.. ( Jesus )

So if Adam ( the one ) wasn't really a man, but rather an abstract of society at that time, does that mean that Jesus ( the one ) wasn't really a man, but just an abstract of society?
So we aren't saved by Jesus ( a man ), we are saved by an abstract of society ?

Who is Ishi?

Thank you ever so much for asking. Ishi is a name of God and is written in the King James Version Bible and the Hebrew Bible. Here is the verse:

Hosea 2:16 King James Version​

And it shall be at that day, saith the Lord, that thou shalt call me Ishi; and shalt call me no more Baali.​

 
This platform is titled "Talk Jesus". I was under the impression that the people who talk here are not speaking of Jesus in vain. To do so, one must omit the tone of mockery, scorn, and deliberate offense from their mouth. To take on such character at this time is an egregious miscalculation of timing and judgment.

Psalm 1:1-2

King James Version

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

Pedal false religions elsewhere. That indian chief ishi has nothing to do with the word of God
 
Please kindly remember to that to please Jesus we must speak to one another with love, kindness, humbleness and meekness. Lest we fall out of the way. Your concern about the name Ishi is perfectly fine. I did answer, but maybe because I included a link it did not show up right away. Here is a quick "at a glance" study on the name Ishi.

Ishi is a name of God. You will find His name written this way in the KJV or Hebrew bible (Tanakh). In other bible versions, such as NIV, the translation of Ishi is used rather than the name itself. The translation of Ishi is "My Husband".



Here is Ishi:

Hosea 2:16 King James Version
And it shall be at that day, saith the Lord, that thou shalt call me Ishi; and shalt call me no more Baali.



Hosea 2:16 New International Version
"In that day," declares the Lord, "you will call me 'my husband'; you will no longer call me 'my master'.



(The Tanakh has this precept numbered as Hoshea 2:18)

Hosea 2:18 Tanakh
And it shall come to pass on that day, says the Lord, you shall call [Me] Ishi, and you shall no longer call Me Baali.


יחוְהָיָ֚ה בַיּֽוֹם־הַהוּא֙ נְאֻם־יְהֹוָ֔ה תִּקְרְאִ֖י אִישִׁ֑י וְלֹֽא־תִקְרְאִי־לִ֥י ע֖וֹד בַּעֲלִֽי

(NLT) When that day comes,” says the LORD, “you will call me ‘my husband’ instead of ‘my master.’
 
Ishi is a name of God.

I would say it's a title, not a name.

Your wife's name is "Susan", not "my wife".
Your dog's name is "Fido", not "my dog".
Your husband's name is "Frank", not "my husband".

If you write "my wife" in a bank check, or a marriage certificate, or a death certificate, or an insurance policy on the designated line that says name.... that is an invalid name.
But if you write "Bonnie K. Smith" on the line that says name, that is a valid name.

The fact that you think so is certainly alright with me. Notwithstanding, you all now know who I refer to when I say Ishi. Furthermore, notice the verse says you will "call me Ishi". Therefore, the fact that I "call" Him Ishi should not be an offense to a believer. I do not tell anyone else what they should call Ishi. You should call Him however you call to Him from your heart. Ishi is God, the Lord, Jehovah, The Creator of Heaven the Earth and Sea, The Most High, Abba, Yah, The Holy One of Israel, The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, The Father of Lights, The Voice of Speech, The Lord of Hosts is His name and then some. Please do not seek to discourage anyone from calling to Him from their heart, especially by any name that is recorded in His very Word. They are all accurate. Howbeit, when I say Ishi, from now on, I will assume that you know exactly who I refer to. יהוה

Yes, those are attributes . God does not have a special name secrets membership name .

He multiplies his living word and is subject them above all his name .

God does not need a name to tell himself from the other gods not seen . Legion, Lucifer, the father of lies etc . . attributes of the devil

God is not a man as us. He alone Is God our husband Ishe . He has no identical twin.

Psalm 138:2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.


Psalm 148:13 Let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven
 
God does not have a special name secrets membership name .

Rev 3:12; 'He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will not go out from it anymore; and I will write on him the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God, and My new name.

Rev 19:12;
His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many diadems; and He has a name written on Him which no one knows except Himself.

Rev 2:17; 'He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, to him I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and a new name written on the stone which no one knows but he who receives it.'

Names are given by the the one who fathered them. No one fathered God, He always was there. Thats why He said I am. Ergo, I have always existed. I am not named. There was no one to give me a name before me.
 
God's name is ancient and peopel lost it before the flood, remember back in those days it was sacred say it wrong and you will be punished. The name jehova, elohim, and other names are not his names but nicknames. The ring of king Solomon had the name of God engraved on hsi ring and it is why it was powerful. To find his name is in psalms some say it is a tower it is how he's name said part of psalm tall stron tower in hebrew. But really people don't know we say hashem.

Know he's name is sacred.
 
The time of the flood the giants knew the name of God. Holy perhaps the disacretion of it in those times lead to the flood. Who knows ? Tettragrammaton is not the name of God in time of the flood. It is another.

The power of all his names as immutable attributes God.

No nicknames every name has a certain reference to the whole

God who is not a man or image that we would could compare to another image .He has no twins or look alikes. He does not have a secret name (007) or secret handshake .

He raises his living abiding word above all his names (attributes) and is subject to the power of each one .

Psalm 138:2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

We find his name in the opening statement Let there be and there displaying His power of his name to create. Many attributes as power

We can also find the power of his name as faith as the better things that acompanies salvation

Hebrew 6:9-10 But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.
For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

The power of his living word he again maginidies it above all his attributes as a name .

I would offer no such things as giants as far as physical statue .Giants who trusted the faith of Christ working in them like little David when he slew a actual physical giant with one little stone called men of renown. . giants of faith Christ in them the power of God to both will and power to finish the good request of God


They are believers as born again sons of God spoke on in 1 John who became unevenly yoked with unbelievers. . daughter of men .
They violated the warning of protecting the spiritual seed (Christ) in respect to the second birth " born again" . Esau like Cain saw no value or Onan who spilled the seed wanting nothing to do with the ceremonial law revealing the unseen things of God . There were born again believers after the flood that had also become unevenly yoked .

The law still applies today

2 Corinthians 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
