The
Two Jehovahs of the Psalms
The Scriptural Evidence of the Duality of God
by
Carl D. Franklin
June 1994
Introduction
This
paper is the second in a series of studies on the nature of God. The
first paper, “Defining the Oneness of
God,” explains the various
beliefs that have been formulated concerning the unity of the Godhead, and
shows the origins of those beliefs and their impact on the early New
Testament Church. These concepts of “oneness” are then evaluated
by examining the Scriptural usage of the word “one” in both its physical
and its spiritual applications. This initial study demonstrates that
the Scriptures do not reveal God as only one divine Being or one divine “Substance.”
This
second study on the nature of God is built upon the Scriptural groundwork
that was laid in the first study. The purpose of this second study is
to demonstrate the duality of God as revealed in the Old Testament.
This study focuses on those passages in the Psalms which refer to two divine
Beings and shows that both of these Beings were known as Jehovah.
These passages are examined in the light of the New Testament, which
identifies the two Jehovahs of the Psalms as the two divine Beings
Who became the Father and the Son.
This
study presents irrefutable Scriptural evidence of the eternal existence of
Jesus Christ and the co-equality that He shared with the Father as one of
the two Jehovahs of the Old Testament. You will find this
second presentation easier to understand and more meaningful if you have
read the previous study paper, “Defining the Oneness of
God.”
If you have not yet received the initial study paper, send for your copy
without delay.
