From Biblehub Isaiah 43:1:
I have called you by your name
Calling by name signifies a personal relationship and intimate knowledge. In ancient Near Eastern culture, knowing someone’s name implied authority and a deep connection. This phrase reflects God’s personal care and attention to His people, reminiscent of John 10:3, where Jesus, the Good Shepherd, calls His sheep by name, indicating a personal and protective relationship.
.
you are Mine!
This declaration of possession signifies a covenant relationship, where God claims Israel as His own. It reflects the covenantal language found in Exodus 19:5, where God declares Israel to be His treasured possession. This phrase also foreshadows the New Testament understanding of believers being God’s possession, as seen in 1 Peter 2:9, emphasizing belonging and identity in Christ.
