I've looked for some help on language things I don't understand:
Why did God only appear as El Shaddai to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob?
The short answer is that it was enough for them. When Moses came later and the people needed delivering, then God made himself fully known as Yahweh, the God who saves. He is indeed, El Shaddai, mighty to speak and to act, but also Yahweh, the God who saves.
