| I didn't say I prefered the ESV, but the KJV. I just threw another translation in there to show that different ones try to render the same words, and come up with different renderings.
I think, unless someone can show me a missed assimilation, that I think the KJV has it right, and the Word is lifted above any "attribute" which is essentially what we get when God "names" himself. I think the old LXX gives the same KJV sense in its Greek translation. Sorry for any confusion.
