Dear tedy :: Thanks for your question and welcome to Study Bible Forum. The word Yahweh derives from YHWH, the technical name of which is tetragrammaton meaning "four letters" in the Greek. These four consonants make up the divine name (Exodus 3:15) which is found more than 6,000 times in the Old Testament. It has a twofold meaning, indicating (1) the active, self-existent God (the word is connected with the verb "to be") and (2) Israel's Redeemer (Exodus 6:6). Of significance is Jesus' revelation of Himself as the seven great "I AM's" in John 6:35; 8:12; 10:7,9; 10:11,14; 11:25; 14:6; and 15:1,5. --Hank | ||||||

H3068 is the Hebrew tetragram. éäåä It is sad the Hebrew won't stay here when saved. The Hebrew tetragam is first used in Gen 4:1 when Eve has Kain and attributed to the "J" writer (if you believe the theory of multi authors)and used by him through deuterotomy. He than changes to Elohim. The tetragram left to right in Hebrew is yod het vav het and transliterated left to right YHVH. Why the W got placed there I don't know. Maby for the same reason Yeshua got changed to Jesus. There is no J in Hebrew! Think about it! Any way the tetragram is consonants only. The vouls have been lost in time or never mentioned as Jews don,t utter the name of G_d. G_d comes from the German name for G_d Gott. What did happen was the Hebrew text had vouls added to it by the Jewish Massorites. They added the voul points below the consonants (aoa) in Adonai (meaning Lord) so as to not write the true pronaunciation of the Devine (if there ever was one!). The i is a final yod. So you end up with the YaHoVaH. Do you see it? Play with it on paper. One Christian group didn't understand the Jewish trick and used this to name their denomination! In the Hebrew text the tetragram is written as such, or ' ' (yod yod) in prayer books, and pronounced Lord,Adonai or HaShem. Now you know "the rest of the story" Blessings DOC |
