The "J" sound was represented by the letter "I" for centuries before the hook was added to form the "J". By your logic there was no W sound in English, yet the letter "W" was invented much later than the letter "J". > For example, the very first edition of the KJV printed in 1611 AD, > contained no "J". Not even one! Instead the letter "I" is used for Jew, > Jesus, Joshua, Joanna, John AND the person pronoun "I".

You just disproved your own argument, showing the letter I was used to represent the "J" sound. > In a stunning admission, Jehovah's witnesses tell us that the reason they > continue to use "Jehovah" instead of the correct spelling Yahweh, is to be > pleasing to man, not God. The modern name YAHWEH is total nonsense. It is a Roman trick to get people praying to the name IOVE, or JOVE. "Yah-weh" is the Roman pronunciation of IOVE, or Jupiter. It is a Jewish fable phantom invented by the Romans. "This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith; Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth." I have been working on a paper to debunk this nonsense. It is not ready yet. I have spent years researching and I can show the actual ancient Hebrew name and its meaning. This Hebrew roots and sacred name nonsense is a cruel joke.
