This means THE LORD our righteousness. When our Lord comes to reign in righteousness over this sin-ridden world with its sad history of blood and tears, we are told what His name shall be.
"This is His name whereby He shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS." (Jer. 23:66In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. (Jeremiah 23:6)). "In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS [Jehovah-tsidkenu]." (Jer. 33:1616In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The Lord our righteousness. (Jeremiah 33:16)). How sweet it is to realize Divine righteousness has been established through the atoning death of our Lord, so that blessing can flow to needy sinners. And as we see all the unrest among the nations, Communism threatening to sweep the world with its anti-God propaganda, how happy it is that we know that the Lord will set up His righteous government in this world. Where the League of Nations, and the United Nations fail, our Lord will succeed, bringing peace and security into this troubled world. A groaning creation cries aloud for the Prince of peace.
Lastly we have a most beautiful combination, where all alike are supremely beautiful.
