On the Name of God Predating Exodus 3:14

1:48 Possibly Moses was aware of Canaanites abusing the name IHVH and therefore did not dare to use it without special revelation (Exodus 3:14).

Certainly God was aware they were going to, hence He did not reveal it to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He did not say He had not revealed it earlier on, for instance in the day of Enos (Genesis 4:26), or if "call on" is euphemism for blaspheme, perhaps already to Adam and Eve.

Obviously, this is only a possible argument for those of us who admit Genesis 11 is history.

In later chapters of Genesis, we do not see Abraham or descendants say "Lord, help" or "Lord, hear" ...

A search on first phrase gave Genesis 2:18, and on the latter we have Genesis 23, where a man of gentile stock is calling Abraham "lord" ...
