Isaiah 43:11
I, yes I, am the LORD, and there is no Savior but Me.
BSB
ASV
I, even I, am Jehovah; and besides me there is no saviour.
KJV
I, even I, am the Lord; and beside me there is no saviour.
ORTHODOX FAITH 1:5 (749)
It has been sufficiently demonstrated that God exists and that his essence is incomprehensible. Furthermore, those who believe in sacred Scripture have no doubt that he is one and not several. For the Lord says at the beginning of his lawgiving, "I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt. You shall not have strange gods before me." And again: "Hear, O Israel: the Lord your God is one Lord."
I, even I, am the Lord,.... Jehovah, the self-existing, eternal, and immutable Being; this is doubled for the confirmation of it, and to exclude all others: and besides me there is no Saviour; either in a temporal or spiritual sense; the gods of the Heathens could not save them out of their present troubles, and much less save them with an everlasting salvation; none but God can do this, and this is a proof that Christ is God, since none but God can be a Saviour.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
