Rolf,
I appreciate your comments. I agree that EGO EIMI is often used to
translate a nominal clause. That makes ani hu a likely translation.
However, I cannot concede that EGO EIMI would be an unlikely
translation of eyeh when it is translated in precisely that way in
Exodus 3:14 to identify the name of God.
Do I understand from your comments that you would assume that the
original was "ani hu"? If so, are you aware if this would have been
considered blasphemy or do you believe that the Mishnaic tradition is
not relevant to this passage?
Sincerely,
Michael Abernathy
