Do you believe in Jehovah's name?

Answer 1

The name "Jehovah" is used in KJV a mere four times, although it appears nearly SEVEN THOUSAND times in the original Hebrew, in the form known as "the Tetragrammaton".

"The Tetragrammaton" is the term used to describe the four Hebrew characters (" הוהי ") of the Divine Name. The four characters are generally transliterated (that is, a Roman character familiar to readers of English is shown for the sound of each Hebrew character) as "YHWH" and pronounced something similar to "Yahweh" or "Yehowah". It is relatively straightforward to guess how the Hebrew pronunciation "Yehowah" became translated into the English pronunciation "Jehovah" more than 400 years ago.


The King James Version uses the name "Jehovah" at Exodus 6:3; Psalm 83:18; Isaiah 12:2 and 26:4. A few place-names which include "Jehovah" are also left intact (see Genesis 22:14; Exodus 17:15; Judges 6:24).

The shortened form of "Jehovah" is "Jah". KJV uses "Jah" at Psalm 68:4, and within the exclamation "Hallelu-jah" (or "Alleluia"), which literally means "praise Jah" (see Revelation 19:1-6).
