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.

14 · This verse (above)

15And it shall be that just as all the good word that YHWH your Elohim spoke to you has come upon you, so YHWH will bring upon you all the evil word, until he has destroyed you from off this good land that YHWH your Elohim has given you.
