Bible Question: Does God have another name another than God? |
Bible Answer: YHWH - Almost 7,000 Times in the OT The name 'YHWH' appears almost 7,000 times in the OT. YHWH - the only proper name for God I appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as God Almighty, but I did not make My name Yahweh known to them. (Holman Christian Standard Bible® Exodus 6:3) '“Yahweh” [YHWH] is not one of God’s names—it is his only name. Other titles, like “El Shadday,” are not strictly names but means of revealing Yahweh.' (Study note at Exodus 6:3, The NET Bible, http://www.bible.org/netbible/exo6_notes.htm) The name 'YHWH' appears almost 7,000 times in the OT. However, in the KJV YHWH is usually translated as 'LORD.' 'Yahweh/Yah (or Jehovah). yhwh (or JHVH), the tetragrammaton because of its four letters, is, strictly speaking, the only proper name for God. It is also the most frequent name, occurring in the Old Testament 6,828 times (almost 700 times in the Psalms alone). Yah is a shortened form that appears fifty times in the Old Testament, including forty-three occurrences in the Psalms, often in the admonition "hallelu-jah" (lit. praise Jah). English Bibles represent the name yhwh by the title "LORD" (written in capitals to distinguish it from "lord" [adonai]. The Septuagint rendered yhwh as kyrios (Lord).' ____________________ (Baker's Evangelical Dictionary of Biblical Theology, http://bible.crosswalk.com/Dictionaries/BakersEvangelicalDictionary/bed.cgi). |
