Marya Yeshua - YHWH YHWH Saves???

[Burning one]

Amen, Brother Chuck! I personally believe "Yahweh" is the most likely the pronunciation of "YHWH". "Yehowah" originates from the Masoretic scribes putting the segol and patach vowel pointings under the Tetragrammaton in order for it to read as either "Adonai" or "Elohim", so as to preserve the secrecy of HaShem (The Name) of God and ensure that it isn't taken in vain.

Shlama,


are you familiar with the other Masoretic pronunciations of YEHWAH, YEHWEEH, YEHOWEEH, YAHWAH, etc.? what are your thoughts on the reasons for those? YEHOWAH is the most commonly found of the variant Masoretic pronunciations, but these others deserve an explanation, don't you think?

something i've also pondered is why the Peshitta AN"K goes with MarYa only. and YAHU appears as a theomorphic prefix in certain names in the Peshitta, like YAHUSHAPHAT instead of YEHOSHAPHAT. it is intriguing...
