1 | difference between "LORD" and "Lord | Heb 7:24 | New Creature | 68185 | ||
Why in many verses of Scripture is the word "Lord" sometimes found in all capital letters, "LORD" and in other instances found just with the fist letter in Caps: "Lord" Sometimes the switch even occurs in the same verse. What is the difference between "LORD" and "Lord?" Here is a Bibical example Psalms 110 1 The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool. 2 The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies. 3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth. 4 The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek. 5 The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath. 6 He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries. 7 He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head. Can someone please provide me with the proper answer? New Creature |

2 | difference between "LORD" and "Lord | Heb 7:24 | Ray | 68186 | ||
Hi New Creature, I can't tell you about why they have a rendering that we can't even do on our word processors. The word is in all caps when it speaks of Jehovah God. Since it is awkward to print Lord Lord, it is put in all caps LORD. We believe in the triune God. We believe in the Lord God, the Lord Jesus, and know them as one Lord. So I would say that the Lord Lord is one LORD in that sense. The Jehovah Witnesses, who wonder why we have taken out the word Jehovah, would insert Him (Jehovah himself, NWT) in Psalm 110:5 of your passage here. However the "Lord who is at Thy right hand" is Jesus Himself. They deny the great High Priest according to the order of Melchizedec. Hebrews 7:22, "so much the more also (Jesus) has become the guarantee of a better covenant. And the former priests, on the one hand, existed in greater numbers, because they were prevented by death from continuing, but *He, on the other hand, because He abides forever, holds His priesthood permanently. Hence, also, He is able to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. For it was fitting that we should have such a High Priest (see, NKJ), holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners and exalted above the heavens;..." Psalm 110:5, "The (Lord) is at *Thy right hand; He will shatter kings in the day of His wrath." So I would say that we can not show the three different Persons of the triune God by using different capitalization usages. However, in this passage the all caps in comparison to the capitalized L, points out the existence of these Persons. From the heart, Ray |
