Psalms Chapter 127 did not mention the phrase, "thy word above thy name". But to answer your question, the exact statement written in the Bible was this, "I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise "THY NAME" for thy lovingkindness and for "THY TRUTH": for thou hast magnified "THY WORD" above "ALL THY NAME" ( Psalms 138:2). It means, GOD magnified "THE WORD OF GOD" above "ALL THE NAME OF GOD" and We all know that GOD has so many names mentioned in the Holy Scriptures but there was only one name which God had magnified above all HIS name and that was "The Word of God". The Word of God was described in the Bible as this, "His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had "A NAME WRITTEN, THAT NO MAN KNEW, BUT HE HIMSELF". And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and "HIS NAME" IS CALLED "THE WORD OF GOD" ( Revelation 19:12-13). So, the only one name that God magnified above all His name is "A NAME WRITTEN, THAT NO MAN KNEW, BUT HE HIMSELF". Therefore, all names that EVERYBODY KNEW is NOT The Word of God which God had magnified.

Is right or what?
Isaiah 49:15 and 16
(15) "Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!
(16) See, I [God] have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me.
Revelation 19:16
On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
1. Here again as in other parables, Jesus is going to explain a heavenly doctrine with a earthly application by using the religious leaders ignorance in attempting to trap Jesus in saying a falsehood that would not agree with the law of Moses;
2. It would not have mattered how many marriages the Sadducees used (7 is God's number of perfection);
3. It is a fact that God has patterns of things on earth that are in heaven ( Hebrews 9:23, 24), and marriage is no different, but what is different is patterns of this world are earthly, and the patterns of heaven are spiritual;
4. When comparing heaven with this world you must keep this at the forefront of a comparison;
5. We are married and given in marriage (man and woman only) in this world, but in heaven after the judgment seat of Christ the bride (born again church age believers) is given in marriage to the lamb of God (Jesus Christ), Revelation 19:7-9;
6. The bride for Jehovah God is the Old Testament saints ( Isaiah 61:10);
7. The holy scriptures likens us to angels because they are spiritual created beings and because all angels in the bible are men (no female angels exist in the bible);
8. There is no mention of unbelievers being married after this life in the bible, because part of their torment in hell is separation from everybody and most of all separation from God, total darkness.
When reading the gospels, one must remember to rightly divide the bible into periods of time, and knowing the group of people the book, chapter and verse(s) are directed to. This chapter as is Matthew 24, and Luke 21 are mostly prophetic for the Jews in the future, after rapture of church age Christians only. Jesus is talking about what the spiritual and earthly conditions will be like just before the 2nd advent. Some of these prophecies have already began and will increase as we get closer to the 2nd advent. The key verse to understand is verse 14, which directly speaking of the anti-Christ that will break the peace covenant ( Daniel 9:27) with the nation of Israel that was signed about 31/2 years earlier. Then the anti-Christ which came in bringing peace ( Daniel 11:24) will begin to slay the Jews by the millions (about 14 millions) more than twice as many as Hitler did. And they are given here a warning to start fleeing Israel to Selah Petra (present day Jordan) south of the dead sea to escape the slaughter that is going on and where God will divinely provide for them until Christ’s return. The great tribulation time will begin in verse 14, which is what you can read about in Revelation 4:1 (rapture of the Christians) to Revelation 19:11-16 (the 2nd advent).
