Jehovah (/ dʒɪˈhoʊvə /) is a Latinization of the Hebrew יְהֹוָה‎ Yəhōwā, one vocalization of the Tetragrammaton יהוה‎ (YHWH), the proper name of the God of Israel in the Hebrew Bible / Old Testament. [2][3][4] The Tetragrammaton is considered one of the seven names of God in Judaism and a form of God's name in Christianity. [5][6][7]

The Tetragrammaton[note 1] is the four-letter Hebrew theonym יהוה ‎ (transliterated as YHWH or YHVH), the name of God in the Hebrew Bible. The four letters, written and read from right to left (in Hebrew), are yodh, he, waw, and he. [1] . The name may be derived from a verb that means "to be", "to exist", "to cause to become", or "to come to pass".

2022年1月4日 · It is the letters of the tetragrammaton, Latinized into JHVH, with vowels inserted. “Yahweh” or “Yehowah” is far more likely to be the correct pronunciation. The form Jehovah, though, is very commonly used. It is used in the King James Version of the Bible (Genesis 22:14; Exodus 6:3; 17:15; Judges 6:24; Psalm 83:18; Isaiah 12:2; 26:4).

Yahweh, name for the God of the Israelites, representing the biblical pronunciation of “YHWH,” the Hebrew name revealed to Moses in the book of Exodus. The name YHWH, consisting of the sequence of consonants Yod, Heh, Waw, and Heh, is known as the tetragrammaton.

2025年3月1日 · The Tetragrammaton (יְהֹוָה) is the Lord's name of JHVH which is pronounced in two differing manners: Yahweh or Jehovah. But only one is right and Biblical. The difference originates out of the argument for or against the inspired Hebrew vowel points.

JHVH is a variant spelling for YHWH, the English transliteration of the Hebrew name for God, as used in the Old Testament of the Bible. It is considered the most sacred and ineffable name for God in Judaism, often referred to as the Tetragrammaton, meaning a word of four letters.

2022年11月7日 · Yahweh is the covenant name for the God of Israel. In Exodus 3:15, as Yahweh speaks to Moses, He says that He is also the God of the patriarchs. Then He says, “I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as God Almighty, but by my name the LORD I did not make myself known to them” (Exodus 6:3).

“Jehovah” is the best known English pronunciation of the divine name, although “Yahweh” is favored by most Hebrew scholars. The oldest Hebrew manuscripts present the name in the form of four consonants, commonly called the Tetragrammaton (from Greek te·tra-, meaning “four,” and gramʹma, “letter”).

2023年10月27日 · Jehovah is a Latinization of the Hebrew name of God, resulting from combining the consonants YHWH (Tetragrammaton) with the vowels of "Adonai," a practice done by medieval Christian scholars. Yahweh, however, is considered a closer approximation to the original Hebrew pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton, YHWH.

Yahweh refers to "the self-existent, eternal God" the name God revealed to Moses: And God said to Moses, I AM WHO I AM. And He said, 'Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, I AM has sent me to you' (Exodus 3:14). Moses later wrote. The Lord is a warrior; the Lord is his name (Exodus 15:3). The prophet Isaiah declared.
