And Elohiym also said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ''''Yahwah''', the Elohiym of your forefathers; the Elohiym of Abraham, the Elohiym of Isaac and the Elohiym of Jacob has sent me to you.

IIRC, Jesus quoted the same to demonstrate that God is the God of the living and that there is life after death. But I didn't know that Yahwah itself means God of the living.

Elohiym means:God of the Living. Yahwah is derived from the ancient semitic, from HaYah (The Living) and HaWah (The Begining.) And so what God is saying is that He is the Begining of life, and that He is the God of the living.
