A More Excellent Name

from Deep in the Word - Verse by Verse Bible Study · host Kent A. Jacob

In this episode, we explore the profound meaning behind “a more excellent name” in Hebrews 1:1–4—moving beyond mere words to uncover what the name of Jesus truly represents. Focusing on the biblical idea of “name” as a revelation of character and identity—not simply phonics or linguistics—we examine how Christ’s name declares who He is: the eternal Son, Creator, Sustainer, and enthroned King. Far above angels and all created beings, His name is not earned but inherited, rooted in His divine nature.Drawing from Hebrews, Philippians 2, and Isaiah 45, we see that the name of Jesus carries the very identity of God Himself. This is not about phonetics or linguistics, but about the Person to whom the name points.Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to move beyond passive familiarity and rediscover the awe, reverence, and worship that flow from truly seeing Him as He is.
