It appears frequently in the Gospels and Epistles, often in the context of Jesus' declarations about Himself, such as in John 8:58, "Truly, truly, I tell you," Jesus declared, "before Abraham was born, I am!" Usage: The word אֲנַי is used throughout the Hebrew Bible to denote the first-person singular pronoun "I." It is employed in various contexts, including declarations, promises, and personal statements, emphasizing the speaker's role or action. Context: אֲנַי (Anay) is a significant term in the Hebrew Bible, serving as the first-person singular pronoun "I." It is a fundamental component of Hebrew grammar and is used extensively in biblical texts to convey the speaker's identity and actions. The use of אֲנַי often emphasizes the personal involvement or responsibility of the speaker, whether it be God, a prophet, or an individual. In the context of divine speech, אֲנַי underscores the authority and presence of God, as seen in numerous passages where God declares His intentions or commands. For example, in Isaiah 43:11, God states, "I, I am the LORD, and there is no savior besides Me." Here, the repetition of אֲנַי highlights the exclusivity and sovereignty of God as the sole savior. The term is also used in personal confessions, vows, and expressions of identity, reflecting the speaker's self-awareness and agency.
