Avraham planted a tamarisk at Be’er Sheva, and invoked there the name of Hashem, the Everlasting GodGenesis 21:33 (The Israel Bible™)וַיִּטַּע אֶשֶׁל בִּבְאֵר שָׁבַע וַיִּקְרָא־שָׁם בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה אֵל עוֹלָםHear the verse in Hebrewva-yi-TA E-shel biv-AYR SHA-va va-YIK-ra SHAM b’-SHAYM a-do-NAI AYL o-LAM
Uncover Hashem's Godliness
The Hebrew word used in this verse for everlasting olam (עולם), also means “world” or “universe”. The word olam is closely related to the word ne’elam (נעלם), meaning ‘hidden.’ The phrase “El Olam” (אל עולם), ‘Everlasting God,’ alludes to the fact that Hashem (God) is also king over that which is hidden from us. Hashem has specifically designed a world that is ruled by the laws of nature and hides His presence. It is up to man to see past His mask and reveal the Godliness that is hidden throughout the universe.
