Subject: the meaning of name adonai |
Bible Note: YAHWE (HEBREW) JEHOVA (ENGLISH) – THE SELF-EXISTENT ONE, WHO REVEALS HIMSELF AND CHANGES NOT When Jehova is referred to in the Word, LORD is always written in capital letters. ADONAI – MASTER, OWNER OR LORD When God is referred to as Adonai in the Word Lord is always written in lower case. Adonai can be applied to both God and man. When applied to man it is written with a lower case “l” and here it means master or husband. Yahweh doesn't refer to Adonai but to Jehova as above. |
