AC 6674 - names denote qualities

AC 6674 [6]
... the "name" of the Lord is everything of faith and love
by which the Lord is to be worshiped...

[8]
That the "name of Jehovah" denotes everything by which He is worshiped,
thus in the supreme sense everything that proceeds from the Lord...:

Jehovah bless thee and keep thee,
Jehovah make His faces to shine upon thee,
and have mercy on thee;
Jehovah lift up His faces upon thee,
and give thee peace.
(Numbers 69:24-26)

Thou shalt not take the name of thy God in vain;
for Jehovah will not hold him innocent
that takes his name in vain.
(Exodus 20:7)

Hallowed by Thy name.
(Matthew 6:9)
