well let's see. remember the burning bush story when moses ask god what his name was? that was an attempt by moses to control god since a spirit is named by it's purpose. once you know the purpose of a spirit, you can control it. the angels are named by their purposes, etc... check your hebrew. so when god uses an obscure form of the verb 'to be' as his name, he demonstrates that moses can't control him because his purpose is 'to be'. that's his job. just merely to exist. and as we are made in the image of god, i suppose then that our purpose is to seek to merely exist.
