I suggest you recheck sources. You do know that biblical Hebrew is a little bit different than the the modren Hebrew?

And having a premise and years of honing it precludes any possibility that you'd consider your error.


If you noticed, your sources have been checked.... so....

You know what, sir of the strange doctrines, I have been studying my Bible lo these many years and understand it fairly well. It's one way that I generally can discern phony and unscriptural teachings.

If that phrase is beyond your knowledge, I'd be Deeeee-lighted to translate it for you sir with just my Bible - in whatever version that suits your fancy - if it's a recognized Protestant version, that is.

Thanks for the links. But here is a question for you. Should God answer to the name Allah? Or should Yahshua answer to the name Jesus? My name is Michael, should I answer to the name Tom? It's something to think about.


Hmm. Allah and God are demonstrably theologically different beings, so I wouldn't expect God to answer to Allah.

But, my name is Heather, and I answer to "honey", "mama", "dear", "sweetie", "Zhi" (in forums and when I'm gaming online), and I even used to have the nicknames "tigger" and "brainy smurf" at various points in my life. It never occurred to me that these mostly-endearing nicknames and references should be something that I should take offense at or refuse to answer to.

In fact, my husband pretty much never calls me "Heather", and I pretty much never call him by his real name either... if anything because he's far more dear and close to me than anyone else, so I use terms of endearment, which I would never use for someone who's a friend (I will usually use their first names, though close friends sometimes have nicknames), and I would certainly never use for someone who is a formal acquaintaince (I will use their full formal name, like Mr. Thompson or what have you).

FYI: all of those are uninspired works of men. Not bad in themselves, but not inspired.

If it makes you feel warm & fuzzy, I have a Strong's Exhaustive Concordance, bible dictionaries, concordances, even a Nave's Topical. All of them are somewhat useless unless you first have a good knowledge and understanding of the primary documents, the 66 books of the Bible. It takes more than a few readings to get there.

You still haven't gotten over your bashfulness and said what sect you associate with. Any reason you might be ashamed of them?

I was not aware that there was any simularity to the Holman, and yes it is partially a cut and paste job. And so why did you go to the trouble to mention these things? Did you hope to embarrass me. I will tell you the truth, I am not a writter. I only care to make the best info available for Christians who are seeking the truth.

I think most of us kind of knew that the formal name of God is recorded as YHWH.

In fact there's a terrific Apologetix song about it. To the tune of "YMCA":

One man, with the sheep he was found
I said, one man saw a bush on the Mount
He said, "How come it's not burnt to the ground?
Guess I need to see what's happening!"
One man, in a place long ago,
I said, one man, who for short we'll call Mo
He went up there, and the Lord he did find
And he learned God's name for all time

CHORUS:
He spelled his name with just YHWH
He spelled his name with just YHWH
They have Exodus 3, if you plan to read more
You can learn all about the Lord
He spelled his name with just YHWH
He spelled his name with just YHWH
Can you guess what it means?
Just "I am that I am"
He's the Lord God of Abraham

Edited TOS 8

i am in agreement with how the memorial name of the Lord has been lost unfortunately....

EX 3

13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? 14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. 15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.

This is His name which should be used in all the 7,000 plus places in the OT. Unfortunately, due to the jews fear of misuse of the name, they have sub ut with something else.

Why is it important?

Well, its HIS name! Simple as that....

For eg in my country, due to its connections with the Arab world, the bibles translated in the local language uses allah in place of YHWH. is this blsphemy, one should ask.
Due to this, christians here are blinded to the fact of Ex 3. So much so that theres a court case to allow the use of this name by the christians apart from muslims! Is this not delusion? Is this not a delusion from the Truth that His name is not allah but YHWH?

Truth matters....

Shalom

The Hebrew word "hayah" translates as "The Living." Yahwah is Lifes Begining.

I agree with you. God said to call Him Yahwah for all time. He is "The Living" God. The words "I am" is an interpretation not a translation.

Yahwah reveals His name to Moses
Exodus 3:13-15.
13 And Moses said to Elohiym, “Suppose I go to the siblings of the Israelites and say to them, 'The Elohiym of your forefathers has sent me to you,' and they ask me, 'What is His name?' What shall I say to them?” (Elohiym means, “God of The Living.”) It can also be translated as “god-s of the living” or “god-s of life,” for those who have life immortal.
14 And Elohiym said to Moses, “The Living that Lives. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: 'The Living has sent me to you.” (HaYah) in the ancient Semitic language means: The Living, or The Life.)
15 And Elohiym also said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites, 'Yahwah, the Elohiym of your forefathers; the Elohiym of Abraham, the Elohiym of Isaac and the Elohiym of Jacob has sent me to you.' That’s my name forever, the name by which I’m to be remembered, from generation to generation.”

Sorry, but this is still just plain wrong. There is a reason that no translation of the bible translates these verses like this. Also one minor note, in the section where it says "God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Jacob", the Hebrew word is "Elohai" not Elohim. This is the construct form of Elohim. It litterally reads "Elohai Avraham Elohai Yitsaq velohey Ya'aqov"

HYH conjugated in the first person qal imperfect is 'eheyeh' (aleph-hey-yod-hey) and means "I am" or "I will be." Here are some other usages of the first person qal imperfect i.e. conjugated identically to the usage in Ex. 3:13-15:


Ex. 3:12 "And God said, "I will be with you."

Du. 31:23 "and I myself will be with you"

Josh. 1:5 "As I was with Moses, so I will be with you"

1 Sam. 23:17 "You will be king over Israel, and I will be second to you."

2 Sam. 7:14 "I will be his father, and he will be my son."

2 Sam. 16:18 "his I will be, and I will remain with him."

Ho. 14:5 "I will be like the dew to Israel"

A check of any exhaustive concordance will reveal that every one of these references is to HYH, and a check of the text will reveal that each reference is identical to 'eheyeh' used in Ex. 3:13-15. Did you notice the consistent translation of the first person imperfect of 'to be' in each of these verses? Did you notice that the translators never mistake this verb for 'to live'?

quote:

Do you really believe that these tools will help you understand the original language better than those who translated your bible into English? Exhaustive Concordances, Bible Dictionaries, etc... are all really good tools, but an invalid interpretation is often the result when you do not understand the limits of these tools. When you come to the conclusion that your bible has been mistranslated, check a few different English versions, and if they all are in agreement realize that it is your knowledge about the original language that is in error and not the translation in your English bible.

Here is an example of the limits of an exhaustive concordance: In Strong's every reference to HYH in any construction and conjugation references the single entry (i.e. one single Strong's number); however, in my Even-Shoshan (Hebrew) exhaustive concordance there are approximately 120 different forms of HYH listed. In Hebrew every verb has 7 different constructions that represent the active, passive, intensive, intensive passive, causative, causative passive, and reflexive. And each verb is conjugated into about 30+ different forms in each construction representing perfect, imperfect, present participle, imperative, gerund, and each "tense" has a first person, second person, third person, in both the masculine and feminine, and singular and plural. Each of these forms significantly affects the interpretation of the passage, but these are all completely hidden to the user of a Strong's exhaustive Concordance.

An example of why these forms matter:

If you were invited to dinner, wouldn't you want to know if you were being asked to eat with those who invited you, or to be eaten by those who invited you?

In Hebrew the difference is only a slight spelling and pronunciation change to the verb 'achal' (to eat).

Clearly you didn't bother to read my post! I did not use Strong's because I have far better references than either the Strong's or the NIV Exhaustive Concordance.

Question: There are only about 20 references in the entire bible where 'eheyeh' (I AM) is used in the exact same form as it is in the verse you quoted; can you provide a reference from any English translation that translates just one of these references as "I Live" or "I will Live"

The boys- look, opened the full force yeshiva on the subject and I yet to learn what’s the point. Ok, Hebrew name, all the other names are also legit! As if God looks down at poor illiteral Chinese farmer that doesn’t know Hebrew names, but addresses God in his own native tongue.

Michael , please, explain if possible, what is the goal? As others said, there are many names to God, you seem to be OK with that.

Zhi, are those brownies ...well.. the kiddie version? I just thought maybe you made an adult bunch of brownies before, that would easily explain some posts..

There are many gods, but there is only one Yahwah. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahwah



I'm curious why you bothered to link to the Wiki article since its word for word what you have in the OP. Do you think that if people see it posted at Wiki it must be true?

Did you write the article yourself, since anyone with a membership can post at Wiki. It says it was modified today at 15:35, I'm assuming Eastern. It was not there yesterday when I checked, when I would search for Yahwah it kept sending me back to Yahweh.

If you copied someone else's material then that is a copyright violation (Terms of Service 8)

Also I have found three different websites where it seems this material was cribbed:

Here about half way down where it starts out "About 300 B.C. adonai", one word at the end of the paragraph was changed.

and here the last paragraph, did you write that article too?

and here last paragraph for sure, didn't check the rest of it.


ROFLOL!! I checked out the Wiki link. The article's history shows for all the world that MichaelTheeArchAngel is the author of the Wiki article. So, MTAA wrote it and then uses it as his reference. Priceless.


Real Credibility for sure. lol.


Thanks for the lessons benelchi. It was great.

Hey for you who use the Hebrew names for the Almighty. Are not using hebrew in the rest of your writings. Come on now let us reason together, a creator of us who states that he is loving and compassionate. Knows the heart of the person. Would not condemm the person if they happen use the word God, Jesus, Jehovah and Lord.

Did I say that God would condemn you for not knowing His name?
