JEHOVAH'S NAME

JMJ said:
I followed a few youtube videos where some historians and one or two Rabbi`s were searching and found a few references to Jehovah`s name . They were ecstatic .

I'm enjoying them thank you for sharing 😃 I was actually titling the bible version I'm working on the past month The Memra of Yehovah so these are nice/validating. 👍

I've noticed the variation Yahuah has been gaining traction among people past few years because of the Cepher bible what's the deal with that seems an odd rendering?
 
Yahuah has only three consonants... three syllables yes but it's YHH not יהוה‎ so just as bad as Yahweh and not even a proper hebrew name.
 
Does anyone know what
  • AVgSyh; א*

    Means as an abbreviation idk but I'm guessing syriac vulgate. I'm asking because the notes in the referrence Bible say in the "holy holy holy is" in Revelation in that manuscript it was 8 holy(s) in a row rather than three.
Might be codex sinaiticus but unsure. I'll probably call bethel this afternoon to check.

Jesus, although a Jew, and brought up with the over 6000 uses of 'Jehovah' in Scripture, only rarely referred to Him by Name - except in direct quotations from the OT - preferring to use Father instead; He made Jehovah's Name known by what He said and did.

I get you and personally never thought of it that way. However, it is a human custom to use endearing titles to refer to our parents. Which may be the same custom that got people the think it was disrespectful to use God's name in the first place. Jehovah unlike humans wants us to use his name and encourages us to do so. But there is no reason we can't refer to him by his descriptive titles as well, just as Christ did. Even Jesus name means, Jehovah is salvation. His name, his use of God's name, and his actions made Jehovah's name known.

I took the not taking up Jehovah`s name in a worthless way to be the reason why the Jews would not say , or write the name , in case it was used in a bad way . Myself , I prefer to be called by my name as it brings the person speaking into a closer , more personal relationship . But , as one of the clips showed , Satan has done all he can to twist and hide any truth .

And ultimately the jews censorship was pointless because the commandment was not to bear (carry) the name in a worthless way it wasn't as narrow as suboptimal verbal or written use of the name yes it included things like honoring oaths in his name but it was much more comprehensive than that ultimately about how they conducted themselves as Jehovah's name people the people that if they had not screwed up would have been a nation of priests as there conduct good or bad would effect gentiles view of there god. When you read the Torah the high priest wore stones with the names of the tribes on his shoulders as he bore/carried them in carrying out his duties before Jehovah on there behalf.

That is my thought as well . The Jews hid the name , and I wonder if they had a influence in deciding to do so . What was actually required was for his people to live and worship as was required . The fact that Jehovah had given warnings , sent prophets , judges etc . And yet their answer was to hide Jehovah`s name .
