Yacheed means absolute unity, or<br />

uniqueness, an only one.<br />

It occurs only twelve times in the Old Testament (3x2 2 ),<br />

viz: Pentateuch, 3 timess and Rest of Old Testament 9 = (3 2 )<br />

times.<br />

• Genesis 22:2, "Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac."<br />

• Genesis 22:12 and 16, "Hast not withheld thy son, thine only<br />

son."<br />

• Judges 11:34, "She was his only child."<br />

• Psalm 22:20, "Deliver...my darling" (marg. only one).<br />

• Psalm 25:16, "I am desolate and afflicted."<br />

• Psalm 35:17, "Rescue...my darling (marg. only one) from the<br />

lions."<br />

• Psalm 68:6, "God setteth the solitary in families."<br />

• Proverbs 4:3, "I was...tender and only beloved in the sight of my<br />

mother."<br />

• Jeremiah 6:26, "Mourning as for an only son."<br />

• Amos 8:10, "I will make it as the mourning of an only son."<br />

• Zechariah 12:10, "As one that mourneth for his only son."<br />

These are all the occurrences of the word Yacheed, and<br />

here therefore we see the meaning of the word.<br />

But this is not the word which is used in Deuteronomy 6:4,<br />

and it is never used of Jehovah.<br />

It is used of the Lord Jesus as the only begotten Son; but<br />

never of Jehovah—the self-existant One (- Echad).
