The Names of God in the Hebrew Bible

The Hebrew Bible calls God by many names, and each one opens a different window onto who He is. YHWH, the four-letter Name too holy to pronounce. Elohim, the God of creation and justice. El Shaddai, Adonai, the Name that heals, the Name that provides. Over eleven days, meet each name in the verse where it first enters the story, and hear what the Hebrew says that translation quietly leaves behind.
