Tetragrammaton

[Qnts2]

 

You said that there is no letter "J" in Hebrew. What of Satan's name? Written perhaps as "sjws" or so. Not sure but sure that there is a letter j in the name.

 

There is no letter in Hebrew which sounds like 'j'. I am not sure what you are trying to say Satans name is.

 

In Hebrew Satan is HaSatan which means 'the adversary'.

In Hebrew, Lucifer is 'halal', which means shining one or morning star. .

Ok. Pls enlighten me more

Ok. Pls enlighten me more

I'm not sure I can be of much help as I can not think of any other names for Satan other then the two I mentioned.  

 

Just for reference, the Hebrew alphabet is written in a different lettering system. Most of the letters have sound the same or similar to the first letter of the letter name. Following is the alphabet, or as it is called for Hebrew letters, alef bet.

 

Alef

Bet

Gimel

Dalet

Hey

Vav

Zayin

Het

Tet

Yod

Kaf

Lamed

Mem

Nun

Samek

Ayin

Pe

Tsade

Qof

Resh

Sin

Shin

Taw

 

I do not know how to put the actual Hebrew letter beside the names. Maybe someone else can do that.

Is it vav or waw?

"The most obvious proof that Jehovah's Witnesses spell YHWH wrong as "Jehovah" is the fact that the letter "J" doesn't even exist in Hebrew, Greek, Latin."

I thought this was pretty interesting.

Most Hebrew Scholars translate YHWH as Yahweh, a verb form meaning "to be" which is backed up in scripture in Exodus where God reveals his name to Moses as "I AM THAT I AM". How do some scholars come up with any other interpretation, such as YHVH, JHVH and JHWH? Is there any Biblical support for these translations or are they just mistranslated?

Actually if you look a little closer you will see that the first part of my post that is speaking about the "J" is in quotations..  Meaning I pulled that statement from somewhere else.  And I also put the link to where I found it right under it...

Halal.  Some things make more sense now...

I never understood why it is said in the Bible "blessed be the name of the Lord" until I learned that God's name was never mentioned by the Jewish people as a show of respect.

i've always been taught that they didn't use the name for fear of accidentally blaspheming him.    One of hose hedge laws to keep you safe.

But the bible says that any one that calls upon the name of The Lord shall be saved.

keep in mind that those who made and live by that law don't believe that Jesus is the messiah....   they wouldn't be calling on him in the sense we would.   Is the name we would call the same as the name Moses would have called?
