אהיה אשר אהיה. I will be that I will be. (In King James it is "I Am")

 אהיה אשר אהיה.  "I will be that I will be" is future tense. (In King James, it is "I Am") Unfortunately, this is thought to be present tense. If Being would be God, then this would make sense. But we see in Plotinus that Being is only the last Emanation of God. God is far above Being.


אהיה אצלו שעשועים is not a counter example. It means "I will be by Him delight daily." There is no reason to say it is present tense.  Not that it is wrong to concentrate on Being. But that is not the same as God. It is the lowest manifestation of God.
