"MarYah deception" ???

[The Texas RAT]

Maryah, while written as you said without the Heh, means only "Mar-Yah." Your point about the Heh being missing is irrelevant, have you seen how Zechariah, Hezekiah (Matthew 1:10), and other names containing the Sacred Name are spelled in Aramaic? You guessed it - without the Heh. That's because Aramaic has a preference to spell words as they are pronounced phonetically. It is different from Hebrew in the spelling of these names at times, depending on the phonetics.

MRYA -> Lord Yah, always. Never used to mean anything else, period.

And for further confirmation see also "HalleluYa" in the Book of Revelation (chapter 19:1, 3, 4, and 6) in the Western PeshittO.
