Personally, I do not take this as a reference to a name of Messiah.
Jer 33:6 is nearly identical to 23:6. There the word LW (לו) is
replaced with LH (לה). If the one is a reference to Messiah, why not
the other?
Rather, Jer 23:6 is masculine, referring to Israel -- in the same way
that in 33:6 it is feminine, referring to Jerusalem. The two verses
are saying the same thing, and neither is talking about Messiah's
name.

Would you not think that in this passage in Jeremiah...
Jer 23:6 And in His days Judah will be saved and Israel will dwell
safely,
Now this is His name by which He wil becalled YHWH Our righteousness.
Surely this is referring to the comming Messiah , thats what all Rabbai's
I
have contacted seem to think , so when this Messiah comes , will he not be
called by this name?
What else could it mean .
