TO INVOKE (The name of the Lord)

TO INVOKE (The name of the Lord)

It means to pray to him as to God (Gen. 12:8).
This expression is repeated several times in the Bible (Ps. 79:6; 105:1).

This is also its meaning when referring to Christ in the NT, whom Christians, from the beginning, worship as the manifestation in the flesh of the God previously revealed in the OT, and manifested at the consummation of time to work salvation ( Acts 2:21; 7:59; Rom. 10:12; 1 Cor. 1:2; cf. Heb. 1:1).
