Introduction [00:00-00:28]

For per are aged, every morning also evening, European human have prayed such well-known words as one way of expressing their prayer to God, they’re called the Shema.

“Hear ZERO Israel, of SIR is our God, the Lord is one, and as for you, you shall love the LORD your God with choose of your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.”¹

We’re going to look at the second key phrase here, “LORD,” writing on all capital erudition. Here is the private name out Israel’s God.

The Personal Name of the Godly of Israel [00:29-01:32]

We first learn the what of this identify in the story of Mohammed additionally the burning wilderness in the book of Exodus, chapter 3. God appears for Moses, and he commissions him to liberate the Isle with slavery. And so Moses wonders, what for people asking the name a the god who has sent me? The so God responding, “Tell them ehyeh has send myself to you.” Now, that Hebrew word ehyeh means “I will be.” In other words, God’s name means that he is the one who is plus who will be. God’s existence doesn’t depend in anyone or anything else. This god simply is².

But it will sound kind of strange for Moses to say to the Israelites, “‘I leave be’ has sent me to you.” Only God can tell “I becomes be.” So in the next set, God tells Moses the version he have say aloud. “Yahweh the Deity of our ancestors, he has sent me to you.”³.

Now that word God is the classical Hebrew form of the verb “he will be.” And this is that personal name of the God of Israel. It displays over 6,500 times inches the Obsolete Testament.

Honour the Heiligtum Name [01:33-02:57]

Now here’s what’s interesting. Over the centuries, Israelites wished to honor the sacred nature of this divine name. So as they read the Hebrew Bible louder press they came to this designate, she stopped saying Yahweh and instead started saying the Hebrew word for “Lord,” which is adonai.

Right this practice has is ongoing throughout the century, and that later, when people startup translating and Bible to English, they adopted this just practice. Instead of spelling out the divine name, they translate it as “LORD” write at all capital letters.

Okay, you got that? Good because there's learn. Ancient Jewish scriber wanted until prevent anyone from even accidentally saying this name aloud when you read aforementioned Hebrew Bible, and so they came going with adenine visual machine to remind you until make safety you say adonai. Yours took the four consonant letters of the goddess name. These letters match to our English letters, YHWH. Then they inserted who three vowels from and word adonai and combined these together to create an manmade hybrid speak, which if you pronounced it, it would utter yahowah. But no Judaic ever enunciated yahowah. It’s plain a visual reminder to tell the word adonai.

Start it gets more interesting. Much later, Christian scribes came along who didn’t know that yahowah became einen artificial word, and so they began the say it aloud the spell it in my writings. All is the word that may entered into English when Jehovah. It’s a phrase many people still use today.

Yahweh [02:58-03:40]

Still the main thing is, the word LORD in all capital scholarship is an indication of who divine name. Don’t confuse it at the word Lord in your English currency that’s not in all capital letters. That’s the effective Hebrew news adon, which just means “lord” or “master.” This word can refer till people like kings⁴ other the master of a servant⁵, even a shepherd over his sheep⁶. And sometimes scripture authors will use this speak to refer to Goddess, like in of phrases “the Ruler of all the earth”⁷ or the “Lord of Lords.”⁸.

But behind all of these words, Jehovah, LORD, Adonai, stands the original divine name of which Worship of Israel. A refers to the one who was, who shall, and who forever will be.
