Yes, the proper name of God and Lord in Deut 10:17 is YHWH.

Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.
Let’s see several other things in Hebrews 1 alone that God identified Jesus as:

This question “Any thing that you disagree with in that Berean?”
And this question: “Any thoughts?
These questions relate to two posts above here directed to you.

In the OT, what is the proper name of the God and Lord in Deuteronomy 10:17?

Regarding what you wrote:
We are now living in Day Seven : God’s rest. And just as before, this day is not limited to twenty-four hours.
There have been many of God’s Sabbath rests in God’s Feasts alone. Obviously, we are not in the 7th day Sabbath rest.

Furthermore, as a follow up question, I asked GROK this for your benefit as an SDA:
Is it possible that Ellen White would believe that Jesus is the Lord of lords in Deuteronomy 10:17?
GROK’s reply:
Yes, it is possible that Ellen White would believe Jesus is the “Lord of lords” described in Deuteronomy 10:17. As a co-founder of Seventh-day…

Thanks for your answer. This might be an interesting discussion. I asked GROK this question:
Is it possible that Jesus is the Lord of lords in Deuteronomy 10:17
Here is the answer it gave me:
Yes, from a Christian theological perspective, it is possible—and indeed a common interpretation—that Jesus is identified with the “Lord of lor…

You asked:
So you’re saying it was a spiritual day / light that also had evening and morning?
Good question, I think that the light of day one has to do with the Son of God who is “The Light of the World” entering the dimension of creation.
The term “day” was what God called the light. The darkness that was called night is d…[Read more]

Hi Berean,
I’m happy to see you as well. I appreciate your kind words.
I agree with what you wrote. Do you agree that Deut 10:17 could be mentioning two persons as YHWH, God of gods and Lord of lords, in light of there being one God and one Lord as mentioned in the NT?
Deut 10:17 For He, your God YHWH, God of the gods and Lord of the…[Read more]

Lightenup started the topic One God and One Lord in the forum Bible Texts & Translations 6 months, 3 weeks ago
The proclamation that for “us”, we have one God and one Lord, seems to tie back to the fact that YHVH is the God of gods and the Lord of lords, two persons.

Hi Proclaimer,
To answer your question above, I say no, “evening and morning” is not proof of 24 hour days. We are told this though:
Exodus 20:11 For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth and the sea and all that is in them, but on the seventh day He rested. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart as holy.

JESUS, SCRIPTURAL, LEFT THIS WORLD AFTER FORTY DAYS!
Jesus went to the Father in heaven on the third day and came back that day. After forty days, He went to heaven and stayed.
This is clear in John 20

Procleimer,
You said:
Jesus is not God, he is His Son. We are not God, we are his sons.
Believers will have the relationship as a son to God the Father as Jesus does, I agree. Believers will have a glorious body like Jesus’ glorious body, I agree. However, believers do not become sons in the same way that Jesus originally became a son, therefore,…[Read more]

Berean,
You asked:
AS YOU CAN READ ABOVE, A SON OF MAN ROSE ON THE THIRD DAY, WHILE ANOTHER SON OF MAN REMAINED THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS IN THE HEART OF THE EARTH/HELL!
Answer please:
IS THE SON OF MAN MENTIONED IN MARK THE SAME SON OF MAN MENTIONED IN MATTHEW?
It is the same person.

Hi Jodi,
It’s been a while. I hope you are doing well considering your recent loss.
