In Chapter 10, verse 1, Luke mentioned that Jesus appointed and sent out seventy of His disciple, two by two.
Why two by two?
Reflection:
Why two by two? “I AM” refers to God Himself. “I AM there among them” refers to God with them; Immanuel!
Luke 10:1 Amplified Bible (AMP)
The
Seventy Sent Out
10 Now after this the
Lord appointed [a]seventy
others, and sent them out ahead of Him, two by two, into every city and
place where He was about to go.

of one mind, in harmony] about anything that they ask [within the
will of God], it will be done for them by My Father in heaven.(A) 20 For where two or three are gathered in
My name [meeting
together as My followers], I am
there among them.”(B)

The Mission of Moses
13 Then Moses said to God, “Behold, when I come to the
Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers (ancestors) has sent me to
you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is His name?’ What shall I say to them?” 14 God said to Moses, “[a]I Am Who I Am”; and He said, “You shall
say this to the Israelites, ‘I Am has
sent me to you.’”

to the name of God, YHWH, rendered Lord, which is derived from the
verb HAYAH, to be.
