THE MESSIAH’S NAME
IS ‘YHVH OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS’
Talmud - Mas. Baba Bathra 75b
R. Samuel b. Nahmani said in the name of R Johanan: Three were called by the name of the Holy One; blessed be He, and they are the following: The righteous, the Messiah and Jerusalem. [This may be inferred as regards] the righteous [from] what has just been said. [As regards] the Messiah — it is written:
And this is the name whereby he shall be called, YHVH is our righteousness. [Jeremiah 23:6]
