1 | Why not use Yahweh for LORD? | Bible general Archive 1 | Morant61 | 39705 | ||
Greetings Farout! I was just involved in a discussion about the name YHWH with another poster. Because of our discussion, I because curious about how the NT translated YHWH whenever an OT passage which contained that word was quoted. As a result, I found 50 instances where the OT word 'YHWH' was translated by the Greek word 'kurios' or 'Lord'. Therefore, I would argue that Lord is a good translation of YHWH, since that is how the inspired NT writers translated it. Here are the references: ****************************************** The first reference is the New Testament verse, the second is the Old Testament verse being quoted. Mt. 3:3, Is. 40:1 Mt. 4:7, Deut. 6:16 Mt. 4:10, Deut. 6:13 Mt. 5:33, Num. 30:2 Mt. 21:9, Ps. 118:26 Mt. 21:42, Ps. 118:22-23 Mt. 22:37, Deut. 6:5 Mt. 22:44, Ps. 110:1 Mt. 23:39, Ps. 118:26 Mt. 27:10, Zech. 11:13 Mk. 1:3, Is. 40:3 Mk. 11:9, Ps. 118:26 Mk. 12:11, Ps. 118:22-23 Mk. 12:29-30, Deut. 6:4-5 Mk. 12:36, Ps. 110:1 Lk. 2:23, Ex. 13:12, 15 Lk. 3:4, Is. 40:3 Lk. 4:8, Deut. 6:13 Lk. 4:12, Deut. 6:16 Lk. 4:18-19, Is. 61:1-2 Lk. 10:27, Deut. 6:5 Lk. 13:35, Ps. 118:26 Lk. 19:38, Ps. 118:26 Lk. 20:42-43, Ps. 110:1 Jn. 1:23, Is. 40:3 Jn. 12:13, Ps. 118:25-26 Jn. 12:38, Is. 53:1 Acts 2:20-21, Joel 2:31-32 Acts 2:25, Ps. 16:8 Acts 2:34, Ps. 110:1 Acts 3:22, Deut. 18:15 Acts 4:26, Ps. 2:2 Acts 7:49, Is. 66:1 Acts 15:17, Amos 9:12 Rom. 4:8, Ps. 32:2 Rom. 9:29, Is. 1:9 Rom. 10:13, Joel 2:32 Rom. 11:34, Is. 40:13 Rom. 15:1, Ps. 117:1 1 Cor. 2:16, Is. 40:13 1 Cor. 3:20, Ps. 94:11 1 Cor. 10:26, Ps. 24:1 2 Tim. 2:19, Num. 16:5 Heb. 7:21, Ps. 110:4 Heb. 8:8-12, Jer. 31:31-34 Heb. 10:16-17, Jer. 31:33-34 Heb. 10:30, Deut. 32:36 Heb. 12:5-6, Prov. 3:11-12 Heb. 13:6, Ps. 118:6 1 Pet. 3:12, Ps. 34:15 *********************************************** I hope this helps!

Tim: Thanks for this valuable argument for the use of LORD in the OT translations. This is a very valid argument for use with the Jehovah's Witnesses who complain about our "tainted" translations! --Joe! |

Greetings Joe! I thought it was very interesting as well! I haven't ever really thought about how the NT translated YHWH before my dissusion with Wannabe. But, as I started checking it out, I found these 50 occurances where YHWH is translated as 'kurios'. As you pointed out, it is an excellent source of info for dealing with Jehovah's Witnesses. It is also an excellent source of info for those who believe that God's name has somehow been removed from God's Word. My next project might be to make a list of every OT quote in the New Testament. My Greek NT lists them all, but just the references. Got to go! Your friend and brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
