YAHWEH is not and never was a correct spelling. The name YAHWEH is a modern invention of the Romans, and the name of their chief deity, IOVE. The myth of the "Y" sound comes from the Ashkenazi Jews who converted under King Bulan and spread out in Europe, taking their Babylonian and Canaanite Kabbalah religion with them. The Romans capitalize on this myth of the "Y" sound to insert their IOVE deity into the bible. The original Masoretes maintained the name JEHOVAH with the "J" sound for centuries. All of the reformers in all of their works maintained the name IEHOVA, which was always pronounced as JEHOVAH. YAHWEH is derived from YAHWII, the name of the Canaanite storm deity which is the same as the Roman IOVE and Nordic THOR. JEHOVAH is the real name. You are regurgitating baseless fables that have no foundation either in history or real scholarship. Your desire to oppose and "one-up" the JW propagandist has blinded you. Take the pig stickers out of your own eyes before you try to remove the speck from his eye. We truly inhabit an age of darkness in which perception is reality. -- Nightbulb | https://blog.nightbulb.net | Flip the night switch.
