When Dave first came out with his Interlinear, I tried to reason with him about 'Jehovah" NOT being an Aramaic/Syriac word, and being what I call "a ghostword" to boot.
But he didn't feel that this word took away from the strength of his translation like I did.
If one can use Marya, or MarYah, I see NO REASON to use Jehovah.
The same is true with Alaha, if one can use that word, WHY use Jehovah?
But Dave would not budge, and pleaded "tradition" for using Jehovah.
