“For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, with him who has a contrite and humble spirit…” (Isaiah 57:15).,

One of the names of God revealed in the Bible is El Olam (Genesis 21:33).  It is not a common name, but it does have great significance.  It essentially means “God the Everlasting One.”  It refers to the eternal nature of God, who exists beyond the constraints of time.  The Hebrew word olam literally refers to something concealed, hidden, or vanishing.  It is a picture of eternal duration.  You look back into the past until history vanishes, and God is there.  You look into the future until existence is hidden from view, and God is there.  The Psalmist speaks of this everlasting nature of God in Psalm 90:2.  You could render this verse, “from vanishing point to vanishing power, you are God.”  There is no end to the scope of God’s being.
