(despite some good info, i do not believe with this site's opinion on the Feasts. They are to be kept in the place of Yah's choosing, the place known as Jerusalem!)
Concerning today's TRANSLATIONS/TRANSLITERATIONS of Scripture:
From: http://qbyh.org/index.php
"The name of the Father is YAHUAH, pronounced YAH-OO-AH. This is affirmed throughout scripture in the Ancient and Babylonian Hebrew spelling (Hebrew is a language that is right to left) Yod-He-Uau-He. There are different pronounciations of the name of YAH used throughout the earth. They are YAHWAH, YAHWEH, YAHAWAH, YAHOWAH, & YEHOWAH as well as other variations. Based on spiritual and textual evidence, the proper use of the name of YAH would be YAHUAH or YAHUWAH, for purpose of phonetic spelling.
This can be explained by examining the letters used to spell the name of YAH. The letters Yod-He, which spells YAH the particle of I AM, can be found in Tehilim (Psalms) 68:4. With the first part of the set-apart name discovered we examine other names using the name of YAH. We can examine the names of YirmeYAHU, YeshaYAHU, & YAHUdAH. The names all have the name of YAH incorporated in them. YirmeYAHU & YeshaYAHU each have Yod-He-Uau at their end. These are the first three letters of the name of YAH. The letters take on the sound YAHOO. We then look at the name of the tribe and patriarch, YAHUdAH, pronounced YAH-OO-DAH. This name has the entire name of YAH in it - Yod-He-Uau-dalet-He. We find it interesting that the one letter that differs from the name of YAH is the dalet. Dalet, the fourth letter of the Hebrew aleph bet, means door. YAH has placed a door in the name of Yahudah to show us His name. The name of the tribe in which His branch would sprout. With the removal of the dalet we are left with YAHUAH, pronounced YAH-OO-AH. This is a complete fulfillment of the name of the Father."
You can search the scripture from Genesis
to Revelation and Not find His Name (the Creator) in there.
Let’s start by checking the Prefaces of various Bible Versions to see what they have to say why is not in there.
New International Version"In regard to the divine name YHWH commonly referred to as the Tetragrammaton, the translators adopted the device used in most English versions of rendering that name as "LORD" in
What do the Scriptures have to say about the "devices" of men? Proverbs 1:31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices. Jeremiah 18:12 And they said, There is no hope: but we will walk after our own devices, and we will every one do the imagination of his evil heart.
Today's English Version"Following an ancient tradition begun by the first translators…and following the vast majority of English translations, the distinctive name for G-d (usually transliterated Jehovah or YaHuWaH) is in this translation represented by "LORD". "Making the word of Elohim of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye." Mark 7:13" "But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of Elohim by your tradition?"
"The covenant name of G-d in the Old Testament, represented by the Hebrew consonants, YHWH is translated "LORD" or "GOD"(using all capital letters as shown), as it has been throughout the history of the King James Bible." Again, because of tradition, "as it has been throughout the history of the King James Bible." "He said to them, ‘All too well you reject the commandment of YaHuWaH, that you may keep your tradition." Mark 7:9
Why were the Sacred Names Removed from the Scriptures? - About 7000 times in the Old Testament and About 1000 times in the New Testament?
The New Open Bible J, Study Edition 81990 by Thomas Nelson , Inc., on Page 72 states in part…
1. "It is very likely that the Name was pronounced very much like ‘YaHuWaH’."
2. "Comparisons with transliterations of the Name into other alphabets from very ancient times confirm this."
3. "The best argument for the spelling is that it is probably historically accurate."
"HOWEVER, the RSV’s 1952 introduction explained its reason for rejecting ‘YaHuWaH’ in the translation.
It said that it [YaHuWaH’s Name] lacks devotional qualities for English speaking Christians." What an arrogant attitude for the translators to say His Name "lacks devotional qualities for English speaking Christians"! Can you justify calling Him by any other Name but YaHuWaH, now that you know the truth about the translators? All the reasons previously mentioned for the replacement of YaHuWaH’s Name are similar throughout most of the Modern Bible version and…
REASON #1
It is transgression of the Third Commandment which prohibits us from bringing His Name to naught, or falsifying His Name. Exodus 20:7
REASON #2
It is transgression of the Command in Deuteronomy 4:2, "Do not add to the Word which I command you, and do not take away from it."
Deuteronomy 12:32 What thing soever I Command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it. ; Proverbs 30:6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar. Revelation 22:19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, YaHuWaH shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. .
REASON #3
YaHuWaH reproves the prophets in Jeremiah 23:36,"You have changed the words of the living Elohim…"
REASON #4
"Lord" is not an innocent title. Besides tracing it back to the Roman house-deity, and further back to the name of an Etruscan king, "Larth", not forgetting that in those days, kings were deities! This is transgression of the clear command of Exodus 23:13,"And in all that I have said to you, take heed. And make no mention of the name of other mighty ones, let it not be heard from your mouth."
REASON #5
The chief substitute for YaHuWaH in the hearts of His people was the SUN deity known as "Ba’al". 1 Kings 18:17-40 YaHuWaH’s Name means "I am" His set-apart day is "Sabbath" Ba’al’s name means "Lord" Ba’al’s day is "Sun-day" Sunday is "the Lord’s Day"I would like you to look up BAAL in a good dictionary: you will discover it means "LORD"
So why not call Our Heavenly Father,
Jehovah instead of YaHuWaH?
Here’s Why Not!"Je"hovah If "Je" is supposed to stand for "Yah"...and Strong’s Concordance #1943 & #1942 says "hovah" means: "ruin, mischief, sense of eagerly coveting, iniquity, mischievous, perverse thing, wickedness" Do you then believe your Heavenly Father "Yah" has the attributes of "hovah"? No way! Those are the Adversary’s attributes! Look it up yourself.
Compton’s Interactive Encyclopedia says:The Letter "J" "The English letter J did not come into existence until the end of medieval times..." "Not until the 17th century, however, was the distinction between J or j as a consonant and I or i as a vowel fully established."
From Compton’s Interactive Encyclopedia © 1998 The Learning Company, Inc. To this very day, there is no Letter "J" or the sound of a "J" in either HEBREW or GREEK! So there never was a letter "J" in all of history until about 350 years ago!
So if there never was a Letter "J" until 350 years ago, then our Heavenly Father’s Name could not be Jehovah and our beloved Messiah’s Name (2000 years ago) could not have been Jesus.
Quote from the New International Version preface
In regard to the divine name YHWH, commonly referred to as the Tetragrammaton, the translators adopted the device used in most English versions of rendering that name as "LORD" in capital letters to distinguish it from Adonai, another Hebrew word rendered "Lord", for which small letters are used.Quote from the New Revised Standard Version preface:
Careful readers will notice that here and there in the Old Testament the word LORD (or in certain cases GOD) is printed in capital letters. This represents the traditional manner in English versions of rendering the Divine Name, the "Tetragrammaton", following the precedent of the ancient Greek and Latin translators...Quote from the New Living Translation preface:
We have rendered the tetragrammaton (YHWH) consistently as "the LORD," utilizing a form with small capitals that is common among English translations.Quote from the Today's English Version preface:
Following an ancient tradition, begun by the first translation of the Hebrew Scripture (the Septuagint) and followed by the vast majority of English translations, the distinctive Hebrew name for God (usually transliterated Jehovah or Yahweh, is in this translation represented by "LORD."
