“But,” said Moses to God, “if I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your ancestors has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what do I tell them?” God replied to Moses: I am who I am. Then he added: This is what you will tell the Israelites: I AM has sent me to you. - Exodus 3:13-14

Jesus, knowing everything that was going to happen to him, went out and said to them, “Whom are you looking for?” They answered him, “Jesus the Nazorean.” He said to them, “I AM.” Judas his betrayer was also with them. When he said to them, “I AM,” they turned away and fell to the ground. - John 18:4-6

The correct translation of the “I AM” Hebrew is “I shall be that which I shall be”. No man can define or delimit God.

Wow. So much more profound and their reaction makes sense without the grammatical insertion of “He” that is found in the NASV which I read. I will try and remember to read things as they were written more often.
