of YHWHיְהוָהyehva

YHWH

The personal name of the God of Israel, written in Hebrew with four letters, Y-H-W-H, without vowels. Out of reverence Jews stopped pronouncing it and read "Adonai" (Lord), so many Bibles put "the LORD" or "Jehovah". This translation keeps the four letters. The name is related to the verb "to be" (Exodus 3:14-15). He is not a god other than Elohim: "YHWH Elohim" is the same Creator God, called by his name.

The context

34But the priests were too few and could not skin all the burnt offerings; so their brothers the Levites helped them until the work was finished and until the priests had sanctified themselves, for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.
