Bible Question:
Why has the name Jehovah been edited out of the bible. |
Bible Answer: kstewa Jehovah was a made up name for YHWH. Tyndale in translating the Bible decided to make YHWH pronounceable so he took the vowels from Adonai and placed them with YHWH and using rules of grammar came up with Jehovah. Today most Bibles use the YHWH along with LORD. Jehovah Witnesses claim this is the name of God but God said his name was Exodus 3:15 Moreover God said to Moses, "Thus you shall say to the children of Israel: 'The Lord 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, and this is My memorial to all generations.' Jews will not pronounce even the word God let alone God's name that is why they make it the unpronounceable YHWH. EdB |
