Is Jehovah the true name of "God" or the "creator"?

Question

Just curious to know

Answer 1

He has many names, none of which is necessarily Jehovah. That name comes from the Hebrew consonants for YHVH. There were no vowels in the original Hebrew script and since the Jews never pronounced His name nobody knows what the vowels should be. When the Massoretic script included vowels, they simply took the vowels of one of His other names "Adonai" for Lord, and put them into the YHVH.
Other names are: "El" (the mighty one) or "Elohim" (the mighty ones - plural for majesty). We Christians believe Jesus is another of His names, although of course neither Jews nor Muslims would agree with that.
Another name is "El Shaddai" meaning either "Almighty God" or "Breasted God" (Shad means breast). Some feel that shows God as fulfilling a mother role as well as a father role.
Then there is YHVH Jireh meaning "God who sees me".
By the way, the meaning of YHVH was "He who is", or "I am that I am". It is sometimes translated as "The Eternal".

Answer 2

Yes Jehovah is the name of Almighty God who is the Creator of all things, Creator is a title like God or Lord is but these are not names.

Answer 3

In the Hebrew Scriptures (the Old Testament) God's name is given as a word of 4 letters; since ancient Hebrew had no vowels, it is not known how this word was pronounced, if it ever was pronounced. It is traditional in Judaism that God's name is never pronounced because it is too holy.
In the King James translation of the scriptures, God's name is transcribed as Jehovah (like JHVH). More modern English translations make it Yahweh (YHWH). Of course the letters are different in Hebrew.

Answer 4

Jehovah is one way of writing the name represented by the Hebrew letters YHWH. Sometimes also called Yahweh, this is only one of numerous names given to god in the Bible. And there are many thousands of names for god used around the world. If you ever meet him, you can ask him, but we are unlikely to know otherwise.

Answer 5

Catholics are the unique Christians. the 1st church, which Christ began replaced into the Catholic church. For the 1st thousand years, there replaced into only one Christian Church. In 1054, it split into 2 branches, the eastern Orthodox Catholic Church and the Roman Catholic Church. there have been purely 2 Christian branches for yet another 500 years. In 1518, Martin Luther began a third branch, Protestantism. The third branch splintered into many denominations. you're probable recognizing that Catholics at the instant are not Protestants. the unique Christian Church remains Catholic. The Amish is likely considered one of the numerous Protestant denominations. Jehovah Witnesses at the instant are not a Protestant denomination yet an offshoot of Christianity because of the fact they suspect Jesus is the angel Michael and not the Son of God.

Answer 6

They are actually one and the same. Jehovah,Yahweh,God,Lord,and Jesus are all names of God too. Creator is the same person attached to all these names.

Answer 7

God has only one personal name--Jehovah. Ps. 83:18 says: "That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah, you alone are the Most High over all the earth."

Answer 8

Abba Father, God, Jehovah, He really dosen't care what we call him, so long as we have a relationship with him. I always say a rose is a rose by any other name but I call him LOVE.

Answer 9

Rev 4:: 11 “You are worthy, Jehovah, even our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power, because you created all things, and because of your will they existed and were created.”

Answer 10

God has many names, God, Abba, Father, Jehova Jireh, Yaweh, Alpha, Omega, look up names of God and you will see a ton...
