1 | Why is YHWH found in the New Testament? | Matthew | Tara1 | 110230 | ||
Originally written to Kalos as a response. Dear Kalos, Justme wrote "well written"! This piece of the watchman.org site may have been well written but certainly is not accurate. Here is a list of the misleading inaccuracies: 1). "Watchtower Bible" is not the accurate name of the "New World Translation" nor of the "Watchtower Bible and Tract Society's" name. 2). Jehovah was not inserted but restored in the proper places. 3) It also states; Of course, it is appropriate for a translator to choose to use the divine name JEHOVAH or YAHWEH in the Old Testament where the Tetragrammator YHWH actually appears in the Hebrew text. However, the Watchtower has gone beyond this by inserting the name JEHOVAH in the New Testament, where it does not appear in Greek manuscripts. One need only examine the oldest Hebrew manuscripts of Matthew (originally written in Hebrew) and notice the Divine Name some 26 times. 4) The Kingdom Interlinear has the New Translation in the right hand colomn and does contain the Divine Name. The interlinear portion is the work of Westcott and Hort and used manuscripts that had changed the Divine Name from Jehovah to Lord. Jesus used either the LXX or Hebrew texts and both contained the Divine Name thousands of times! What a shame that several translations today have done the dishonour of changing what the original Bible had! Just read for yourself Matthew 4:10 Jesus' own words where he calls his Father by his name Jehovah and also even calls him God. He quotes Deut. 10:20 which used the Divine name Jehovah, so he likewise used Jehovah, otherwise he would have misquoted Deut 10:20 |

You write: "The Kingdom Interlinear has the New Translation in the right hand colomn and does contain the Divine Name." I reply: The "right hand column"? That's the New World Translation side. What does it say across the page in the original Greek- English translation side? |

If the left handed side were indeed the "original" as you say, then it would have contained the Tetragrammaton. Evidence shows that kurios was subsituted for it. | ||||||

Are you serious? If the left hand side is not the original, then what is it doing there in the Kingdom Interlinear Translation (KIT)? It's the Watchtower Society's own pulication (the KIT) that claims it is the original. | ||||||
5 | Why is YHWH found in the New Testament? | Matthew | Tara1 | 110298 | ||
Hello again, The left hand side is what is considered my many as the oldest and thus the best mss but still isn't thought by any scholar as what the original 100 per cent must have been. For years we thought and perhaps some still do, that the King James Version based on what is referred to as the Textus Receptus or “Received Text” was the most reliable ms. The NWT is based primarily on the Westcott and Hort's work but also Hebrew mss and other ancient mss in it's translation for the New Testament. Therefore Jehovah is found in it(NWT). Jehovah in the New Testament is also found in the following New Testament Bibles for similar reasons. (Well over 200 translations) http://hector3000.future.easyspace.com/jhvh.htm |
