Exodus 3:13-14 Moses said to G-d, "Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, 'The G-d of your fathers has sent me to you,' and they will ask me, 'What is his name?' Then what shall I tell them?" G-d said to Moses, I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ' I AM has sent me to you.'"
John 8:53-58 Are you greater than our father Abraham? he died and so did the prophets. Who do you think you are?" Jesus replied, " If I glorify myself, my glory means nothing. My Father, whom you claim to be your G-d, is the one who glorifies me. Though you do not know Him, I know Him. If I said I did not, I would be a liar like you. But I do know Him and obey His word. Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day, he saw it and was glad." "You are not yet fifty years old," they said to Him, 'and you have seen Abraham!" "Very truly I tell you," Jesus answered, "Before Abraham was born, I AM!"
Now, who was it that made the direct claim to the Jewish Religious leaders at that time to be G-d Himself?
