New Testament scholars often claim that the interpretative key to Jesus’ pronouncement of the words egô eimi in the Gospel of John lies in the use of this phrase in the Septuagint of Isaiah to render the Hebrew expression "anî hû." While previous studies have paid particular attention to the New Testament usage of egô eimi, this title sets the evidence within a broader framework by offering a detailed analysis of the interpretation of "anî hû" in biblical and Jewish traditions.History
