It occurs to me to add that the E in Ehyeh is evidently the shortened personal pronoun אני ANIY attached to the act HYH, which I think is a forerunner of the
personal pronoun היא HIY. In the same way, HWH appears to me to be the
forerunner of הוא HU. Thus I see a possible link between EHYH and YHWH,
a link that the bible in Ex. 3:14 possibly tries to imply, albeit, circumspectly and obliquely.
