I Am In The Septuagint

Be ye my witnesses, and I too am a witness, saith the Lord God, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know, and believe, and understand that I am [he]: before me there was no other God, and after me there shall be none.
I am God; and beside me there is no Saviour. Isaiah 43:9-10

Here again I AM is God and beside HIM there is no savior. Before HIM there was no God. Neither shall there be after him!

In other words he is the first and the last.

No wonder the Jews were so outraged they wanted him dead!

Yeshua is I AM. How many I AM'S are there in this universe?

Which is easier to say? Before Abraham was I AM or I and my Father are one?

But the Septuagint is nothing more than a translation of the Hebrew Old Testament. It is no more significant than the various English translations, though it was the translation used by Greek-speaking Jews. It still doesn't prove that the phrase Jesus SPOKE in John 8 was the same phrase God used in Exodus (hayah asher hayah).
