  Why using Jehovah for God's name is as good as using Yahweh

  by oppostate in

  in another thread i wrote some notes about why using jehovah in english is as good as using yahweh.

  i'm starting a discussion on this topic because it sounds quite ignorant to hear people talk of the monk who started using it in latin without really understanding why the monk did so.. the spanish dominican monk, raymundus martini, in 1270, didn't get hoodwinked by an old jewish superstition about pronouncing the divine name with the vowel points of another word.. 1. first the vowel points of adonay and jehovah cannot be the same for grammatical reasons.

  you just can't use the same vowel points because some vowels aren't paired with some consonants in pronouncing hebrew words.

  Wizzstick. Well said here. Your words are much more eloquent then mine. Thank you.

  Instead people have to choose between a best guess (Yahweh) or a made up name (Jehovah)!
  

  Funny that eh?

  Well that is all very interesting and brings me again and again to the same conclusions. Religion and God (s) are all man made inventions or better yet just remixes.

  Well isn't this a bunch of BS

  well, our sister congregation just had their co visit this past week.

  on saturday afternoon, i was talking to a couple of ministerial servants in that congregation and they stated that an unmarried brother is not fulfilling to the max what jehovah wants of us.

  they stated that the co went on a tirade that if you are unmarried you are being selfish and not following what jehovah wanted for mankind since he created eve as a compliment for the man.

  They are pushing got control

  Baptism = control

  Marriage = control

  No devotion to anything outside of business should have to come with a contract. You should be free to worship or not worship who and what you want at any time, and to come and go in any relationship if you want.

  They are changing two of their old tunes, child baptism and getting married. control control control manipulate manipulate manipulate. Institutionalize.

  What _Morpheus said...

  Or maybe I would say this, Jehovah as good as using yahweh... or... zeus... thor... superman...

  So I have questions, who was the first person to record the name of God as 'Jehovah'?

  Is the name 'Jehovah' or 'Iehovah' an invention or not?

  I have read that the samaritan pronunciation eludes to Yahweh being most accurate, using the vowels from their pronunciation 'Jabe' A E.

  Maybe we should ask Jay Z and Kanye since they are the new J-Hova, and Yeezus. FML

  According to William Malenfant the serpent in the garden was a "she".

  by Hold Me-Thrill Me in

  on jw broadcasting malenfant's latest video, "do not be misled by the wicked" states (@ 4:30) "did it (the serpent) take a bite of the forbidden fruit and because of that was she allowed to gain this ability to speak?".

  where does malenfant get the idea that the serpent in the garden was female?.

  interesting, because malenfant, like the governing body, adds to scripture what is not there.

  Well there is something we agree on! the whole f&%$ing bible is a hoax, that fact that he said this happened about 6000 years ago, oh dear.

  Besides the craziness of that, I've heard the whole "snake ate first" in public talks. Even way back when I always thought that is total conjunture and they know the RF take it as fact now that it came from their mouth.

  Why would Jesus have to ask God in the Lord's Prayer, to not lead us into Temptation, but deliver us from evil..?

  by Tater-T in

  ..... and then willingly be lead into temptation .

  he knows that's how a good god operates, so the first thing he does when installed as heavenly ruler... .

  he casts the ultimate tempter to the vicinity of the earth... so he can do it as much as possible.... has anyone ever noticed this flaw in the almighty ... he has to be told to do what is good , then doesn't do it ... man what a tool.. i guess he really does love us... lol.
