(cf. Deut. 14:23; 14:24; 16:2, 6, 11; 26:2; 1 Kgs 3:2; 5:5; 8:29; etc.). Nevertheless, given the ubiquity of God’s glory, his name is seen ‘in all the earth’ (Ps. 8:1, 9). There is also an association between angels and God’s name. The Israelites are warned to pay attention to and obey the angel who will guard and lead them because ‘my name is in him’ (Exod. 23:21). In Judges 13 Manoah is told that he cannot know an angel’s name since ‘it is wonderful [thaumaston, LXX]’ (Judg. 13:17–18).24 Names
