Jehovah the Redeemer
And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which the LORD thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee. Deuteronomy 13:5
Jehovah is the one who redeemed Israel from slavery. Turning away from Him meant turning from the Redeemer Himself, who is Jesus Christ. Verse 10 repeats the description.
