Jehovah-Shammah

Hawker's Poor Man's Concordance And Dictionary

"The Lord is there." Such is the name of the church in consequence of the presence of her glorious husband. (See  Ezekiel 48:35) The prophet is speaking by the Spirit of prophecy, and looking into the days of the gospel; so that here is a mark to know the church by now, and which will be the character of Christ's church for ever. Without the Lord's presence there is no church: unless he be in the midst of us, we may go lean all our days. Lord! write Jehovah Shammah in our churches, in our hearts, in our houses, in our families!

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature

(Heb. Yehovah' Sham'mah, יְהוָֹה שָׁמָּה , Jehovah is There; Sept. Κύριος Ἐκεῖ ,Vulg. Dominus Ibidem , Auth. Vers. "The Lord is there"), the symbolical title conferred by Ezekiel upon the spiritual representation of Jerusalam seen by him in his vision ( Ezekiel 48:35); under a figure evidently of like import with the description of the new Jerusalem in the Apocalypse ( Revelation 21:3;  Revelation 22:3). In the Old Test. prophecy it appears to have been a type of the Gospel Church, (See Immanuel), probably through a primary reference to the restoration of the Jewish metropolis after the Exile, and perhaps of the recovery of the Jews to Christianity, whereas the N.T. seer carries forward the symbol to the heavenly abode of the saints (comp.  Jeremiah 33:16).
