Can you name other Biblical names for God, other than Jehovah?

Question

I start
ADONAI - Sovereign, master, owner of all things ( Gen 15:1-8 )

I want to remind you that for 50 years JWs used other names of God besides Jehovah. It was not unitl 1931 that the Society began using "Jehovah" exclusively.

Answer 1

Immanuel- God with us...ie Jesus!

For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace Is. 9:6

Lord, God, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Savior, Word, Messiah, Alpha & Omega, Redeemer, Light of the World, Mediatior, Bread of Life, Lamb of God, Ruler of Creation, Author and Finisher of Faith, Corner Stone, Father, Governer, Great High Priest, Friend, Good Shepard, Just One, Judge, Master, Morning Star, Nazarene, Rabbi, Truth, Son of Man, Servant, I AM

God has only one personal name. In English, it's Jehovah. "And I used to appear to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as God Almighty, but as respects my name Jehovah I did not make myself known to them." Ex. 6:3

For those who insist that God's name can't be Jehovah because there is no "j" in Hebrew, why do you still say names like "Jesus," "Jeremiah," "Joshua," "Elijah," etc.?

Answer 3

YAHWEH-ROHI: "The Lord Our Shepherd" (Psalm 23:1) – After David pondered his relationship as a shepherd to his sheep, he realized that was exactly the relationship God had with him, and so he declares “Yahweh-Rohi is my Shepherd. I shall not want” (Psalm 23:1).

YAHWEH-SHAMMAH: "The Lord is There” (Ezekiel 48:35) – The name ascribed to Jerusalem and the Temple there, indicating that the once departed glory of the Lord (Ezekiel 8—11) had returned (Ezekiel 44:1-4).

YAHWEH-SABAOTH: "The Lord of Hosts" (Isaiah 1:24; Psalm 46:7) – “Hosts” means hordes, both of angels and of men. He is Lord of the host of heaven, and of the inhabitants of the earth, of Jews and Gentiles, of rich and poor, master and slave. The name is expressive of the majesty, power, and authority of God and shows that he is able to accomplish what he determines to do.

EL ELYON: “Most High" (Deuteronomy 26:19) – Derived from the Hebrew root for “go up” or “ascend,” so the implication is of that which is the very highest. El Elyon denotes exaltation and speaks of absolute right to lordship.

EL ROI: "God of Seeing" (Genesis 16:13) – The name ascribed to God by Hagar, alone and desperate in the wilderness after being driven out by Sarah (Genesis 16:1-14), when she met the Angel of the Lord and realized she had seen God Himself in a theophany. She realized that El Roi saw her in her distress and testified that He is a God who lives and sees all.

EL-OLAM: "Everlasting God" (Psalm 90:1-3) – God’s nature is without beginning or end, free from all constraints of time and contains within Himself the very cause of time itself. “From everlasting to everlasting, You are God.”

EL-GIBHOR: “Mighty God” (Isaiah 9:6) – The name describing the Messiah, Christ Jesus, in this prophetic portion of Isaiah. As a powerful and mighty warrior, the Messiah, the Mighty God, will accomplish the destruction of God’s enemies and rule with a rod of iron (Revelation 19:15).

Answer 5

In respect to the God Almighty Creator of Heaven and Earth and ALL Living Things.
Judaism - Yod-Hei-Vav-Hei (YHVH) is the one and only, God Almighty.
Respect to our Heavenly Father.
YHWH (Yahweh) JHVH (Jehovah) English Version.

With respect only
When we seek to understand the spiritual significance of "His" name, we are touching the root of its power.
YHVH is mentioned 7,000 times in the OT.
The Holy Name is powerful and deserves respect and glory. We must be careful on how we say it, use it, and how we represent it when saying it.
We do not use it for "evil deeds". Example: DO NOT HARM AND KILL ANOTHER HUMAN BEING. The end of one's life is up to YHVH/YHWH and not on the philosophy of man.

Nina, your question is excellent.

Answer 7

Just a small comment: If My name is BOB do you honor me by calling me FRANK

JEHOVAH:
A mispronunciation (introduced by Christian theologians, but almost entirely disregarded by the Jews) of the Hebrew "Yhwh," the (ineffable) name of God (the Tetragrammaton or "Shem ha-Meforash"). This pronunciation is grammatically impossible; it arose through pronouncing the vowels of the "ḳere" (marginal reading of the Masorites: = "Adonay") with the consonants of the "ketib" (text-reading: = "Yhwh")—"Adonay" (the Lord) being substituted with one exception wherever Yhwh occurs in the Biblical and liturgical books. "Adonay" presents the vowels "shewa" (the composite under the guttural א becomes simple under the י), "ḥolem," and "ḳameẓ," and these give the reading (= "Jehovah"). Sometimes, when the two names and occur together, the former is pointed with "ḥatef segol" () under the י —thus, (="Jehovah")—to indicate that in this combination it is to be pronounced "Elohim" (). These substitutions of "Adonay"and "Elohim" for Yhwh were devised to avoid the profanation of the Ineffable Name (hence is also written , or even , and read "ha-Shem" = "the Name ").

The reading "Jehovah" is a comparatively recent invention. The earlier Christian commentators report that the Tetragrammaton was written but not pronounced by the Jews (see Theodoret, "Question. xv. in Ex." [Field, "Hexapla," i. 90, to Ex. vi. 3]; Jerome, "Præfatio Regnorum," and his letter to Marcellus, "Epistola," 136, where he notices that "PIPI" [= ΠIΠI = ] is presented in Greek manuscripts; Origen, see "Hexapla" to Ps. lxxi. 18 and Isa. i. 2; comp. concordance to LXX. by Hatch and Redpath, under ΠIΠI, which occasionally takes the place of the usual κύριος, in Philo's Bible quotations; κύριος = "Adonay" is the regular translation; see also Aquila).
