John 18 (In the garden at the time of Jesus's betrayal and arrest)
4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek ye?
5 They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them.
6 As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.
7 Then asked he them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.

A major computer firm is utilizing "I am" in their advertising as a distinctive recently as well.
Why?
Some people I know mocked me when I commented on the beer advertisement.
