1 | Did people call "our Father" in prayer? | Matt 6:9 | 00123 | 189967 | ||
Following the Lord's Prayer, we start our prayer by calling "our Father" first. (Question 1) But I wonder if people in fact called God "our Father" in their prayer either in the OT or NT. (Question 2) If not, what name did they call? Thank you for your reply. | ||||||
2 | Did people call "our Father" in prayer? | Matt 6:9 | kalos | 189984 | ||
Question 2: If not, what name did they call? Answer: "Yahweh is His name." Ex 15:3 HCSB The Lord is a warrior; Yahweh is His name. Gen. 4:26 The American Standard Version "And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enosh. Then began men to call upon the name of Jehovah" (YHWH). Know that Yahweh your God is God. De 7:9a Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB) Ex 3:15 HCSB God also said to Moses, "Say this to the Israelites: Yahweh, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is My name forever; this is how I am to be remembered in every generation." Ex 6:2 HCSB Then God spoke to Moses, telling him, "I am Yahweh." Ex 34:5 HCSB The Lord came down in a cloud, stood with him there, and proclaimed [His] name Yahweh. Grace to you, Kalos |

Kalos, Then, are you saying that OT people called God Yahweh when they pray? That is what I don't understand. For example, the British queen's name is Elizabeth, but nobody (maybe except for her parents) calls her Elizabeth in front of her. Do you have in fact any Biblical evidence that people called the name of Yahweh in their prayer? Jews today do not call (even read or pronounce) Yahweh because the name is so holy and Jews fear Him dearly. Thank you. |

Dear Double-Nought-One-Two-Three, Since the time of the captivity Jews have interpreted Leviticus 24:16 as a prohibition against speaking the name of the Lord. Consequently, when they come to the tetragrammaton (YHWH) in the Scriptures, they substitute the Hebrew word Adonai, meaning Lord. (Thus, in many translations the word YHWH is translated as LORD, in all caps.) This prohibition is expressed in the Mishna, "He who pronounces the Name with its own letters has no part in the world to come!" In Him, Doc |
