I Am that I Am (אֶהְיֶה אֲשֶׁר אֶהְיֶה, ehyeh ašer ehyeh [ehˈje aˈʃer ehˈje])
is the common English translation (JPS among others) of the response God used
in the Hebrew Bible when Moses asked for his name (Exodus 3:14). It is one of
the most famous verses in the Torah. Hayah means "existed" or "was" in Hebrew;
"ehyeh" is the first person singular imperfect form and is usually translated
in English Bibles as "I will be" (or "I shall be"), for example, at Exodus
3:14. Ehyeh asher ehyehliterally translates as "I Will Be What I Will Be", with
attendant theological and mystical implications in Jewish tradition. However,
in most English Bibles, in particular the King James Version, this phrase is
rendered as I am that I am.

Perhaps we're on the verge of a major philosophical breakthrough - "The Is
