Are there any other instances in the LXX or Classical Greek in which EGW 
EIMI, SU EI, AUTOS ESTIN or HMEIS ESMEN occur without a complement?  I don't 
have much chance to use TLG and besides I don't think it allows for searches 
to include "without a complement."

My hunch is that AUTOS ESTIN without a complement would, in theory, be 
equivalent to YHVH.
