John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily,verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I AM.
Nah, Jesus said "I am". He didn't say anything about Yahweh.
Exodus 3:
[13] And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?
[14] And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
The Jews knew exactly what Jesus was saying, as was made clear by what they did right after he made that claim.
John 8: 59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
