It is vitally important to know His name!
YAHUWAH is the NAME of Eloah (God) as revealed to Mosha (sn.Moses) in Exodus 3 :13-15 ( NIV) “ Moses said to God ‘ suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them ‘ the God of your fathers has sent me to you’ and they ask me ‘ what is His name?’ Then what shall I tell them?
God said to Moses” I AM who I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites “I AM has sent me to you”
“God also said to Moses ‘say to the Israelites YHWH ( yod-heh-vav-heh – the 4 hebrew letters that form His name ,written today as ‘the LORD’ ) the God of your fathers- the God of Abraham, The God of Isaac and the God of Jacob- has sent me to you. THIS IS MY NAME forever, the name by which I am to be remembered from generation to generation”
Why then is His name YAHUWAH not printed like that in Bibles today and the word “the LORD ” rather used?
AmaniYAH will quote directly from the “preface to the NIV” (and you will find the same explanation in all Bibles) and is as follows “In regard to the divine name YHWH, commonly referred to as the tetragrammaton, the translators adopted the device used in most English versions of rendering that name as ‘the LORD’ in capital letters to distinguish it from Adonai, another Hebrew word rendered ‘Lord’ for which small letters are used”
In ” the complete Jewish Bible”, they reason that they also do not use the NAME of God and we quote one of several reasons: ” God’s personal name is never spoken”
Now we at The AmaniYAH Project find that puzzling, as the Word explicitly says “call on His NAME”
“The Lord” is a title, a substitute for the name of Eloah (God) which is the modern day Hebrew letters “yud-heh-vav-heh” and therefore called the “tetragrammaton” meaning ‘4-letter writing’. This is NOT the same as ‘do not use the NAME ( yud-heh-vav-heh) in vain. Man enforced this ‘rule’ that His name is too holy to pronounce. Thus our God HAS A NAME , they just did not want to say it for human tradition reasons. And the bible translators adopted this ‘device’ and also omit pronouncing His name, thus resulting in “the LORD” in italic and/or capital letters in all of the Bible, admitting in their prefaces that they have done so for this reason and admitting that our heavenly Father has a name, but they chose to rather not use it.
To pronounce the name “YHWH” correctly is YAHUWAH. It is also spelled YAHUAH. The challenge is to get a name in another language to sound exactly like the original correct name when spelled in a language such as English.
AmaniYAH use at times the title “the Lord” when we are teaching those who has never heard the name of Eloah. We might at times refer to “The Lord” , whose NAME is YAHUWAH” and not simply ‘ the Lord’ as there are many “lords” even Baal is a ‘lord’. When referring to our Saviour by title and not His name, many calls Him , my Master. We feel that “Lord/Master/Ruler,/Prince are all synonyms and is purely a title of authority.What is not acceptable , is when READING the Word and it has “the Lord ” in cursive/italics, showing that a ‘substitution’ has just been made by willful decision. We feel very blessed to have come to know His name. ( It is not Yaweh or Jehovah either as those all have different meanings- see below)
Even though we could not consider ourselves to be ‘scholars’ in Ibreuw ( Aramaic) or Paleo- Hebrew ( YAHUWan) which we believe to be the original language, or regular modern “Hebrew” or Greek, we have studied enough to discover these remarkable truths. Just a few hours of dedicated study using original text and accurate translations will show you clearly that diminishing and hiding the name of our Creator was a direct contravention of a ‘specific’ instruction that He gave us through His Word. We are told to revere His name and not to diminish it any way, we are told to “call upon His name”. How can you call upon a name that you neither know or use?
Do your own research, there is plenty of information available for multiple different sources which should help you to see the truth. You definitely should not just take our word for it but there are plenty of ‘witnesses’ to be found out there who will all be able to prove the same truths to you directly from the scriptures and that is the only validation that counts.
We place all of our trust in our Father, that His Spirit will lead us into all truth and we have been much blessed by learning His name. We simply encourage you to be confident that although all the Bibles today have adopted this method (just as we quoted out of one translation above) and admittedly ” adopted the device” to change His name from YAHUWAH to only ‘ the Lord’ ‘, we will call on His true name and not hide it behind tradition and human devices anymore, behind ‘rules taught by men’ as the prophet Isaiah ( YashaYAHUW- restored name) says.
We also quote from the introduction to―The Word of YAH- The Original Scriptures E1 – also known as “The Kings Covenant” translation the following;
Why is YHWH pronounced “YAHUWAH” rather than “Jehovah” or “Yahweh”?
1) 100 prophet’s names carry “YAHUW.” None carry “Jehov” or “Yahwe”
2) “AHleleuYAH” (praise be to YAH) is the oldest and only spoken phrase which has never been mispronounced in over 5000 years! It carries all the letters-sounds of YAHUWAH. It is never “Ahlelev-Jeho” or “Ehlelewe-Yeh.” There is no “J”, “V” or “weh” in YAHUWansth (ancient YAHUWan/”Paleo-Hebrew”).
3) 177 Scriptural names carry “YAHUW.” None carry “Jehov” or “Yahwe.”
4) The fourth letter is exactly the same as the second letter- “AH” not “eh”.
5) The tribe of “YAHUWdAH” (“the Door is YAHUWAH”) is spelled YHWH. Pull out the “d” or dalet and you get “YAHUWAH” not “Yahweh.”
6) AHleleuYAH is the only human phrase unchanged by 4000 languages over the past 5500 years.
7) “YAHUWdaia” means “the land of the YAHUWans”. It is never “Jehovdaia” or “Yahwehdaia”. The pure evidence is overwhelming for “YAHUWAH” being irrefutably His Restored Original Name.
Even though The AmaniYAH Project does NOT recommend the NIV, we often quote from both it and the King James Version (KJV) at times as they are well known translations and because many believers have learned passages from them by heart. So in addition,we will often quote another more accurate translation from the original language next to the NIV or KJV to get the full spectrum of understanding.
To give a very profound example here from the NIV : Go to the Book of John 17 and verse 6 reads: ” I have revealed you* to those whom you gave me out of this world.” Where you see the asterisk, it means that in all NIV Bibles a small little ‘x’ is printed next to that word ‘you’. Thus the reader knows, that this refers to the sub-note at the bottom of the page and when going there it reads as follows: ” x6 Greek your name; also in verse 26 ” ( verse 26 reads :” I have made you* known to them”) That ‘you’ in both verses are the same and again we see the original Greek word in that passage, was the word ‘your name’ . It is omitted twice from this next when this translation was printed, clearly acknowledging so in the sub-note.
Reading out of the King James, they did not omit the word ‘ your name’ , but they printed it in both verses here in the King James, but they do not tell the reader what His name is ?
Let us read out of the restored Scriptures, the King’s Covenant, the same verse: John (Yahuwchanon) 17: 6 ” I revealed Your Name Yahuwah, to the children you have given Me” and v 26 ” I made known to them Your Name Yahuwah, and will make it know”
See Psm 149- verse 1 and v 9 -the NIV Ryrie study Bible . ” Praise The LORD and v 9 “ Praise The LORD “. Now next to The LORD in verse 1 , you will see the NIV put a little letter ” t ” . Then go to the footnotes at the bottom and it says the following : ” Hebrew Hallelu Yah: also in verse 9 ” This is on page 932. Again, acknowledging here that it actually in the original scripture reads hallelu Yah = Praise YAH , but they substitute it praise “the LORD” and putting this ‘change’ in the foot- note for the reader ! You will see this reference each time you see “Praise the LORD” in the NIV in the Book of Psalms i.e Psm 105 v 45 and 106:5
Revelations 14: 1 ” ………….who had His name and His Fathers name written on their foreheads” So again here we see the ‘name’ , but we are not told ‘what it is ?” Let us read from the Restored Scriptures “the Kings Covenant ” ………..having YAHUWAH His name and the name of His Father written on their foremost thoughts and on their foreheads”
We recommend “The Kings Covenant” translation to read as the most accurate and complete alongside your NIV, KJ, NASB etc. The importance of His name is something that the “Holy” Spirit ( the Set-Apart Ruach/ Ruach Quaduwsha)will impress upon you to embrace. From there, He will lead you to the revelation of the Truth that your heart earnestly seeks. It is not our intention to impose our interpretation on you, only to encourage you to make your own journey and let His Spirit guide your steps.
To YAHUWAH , Almighty Loving Father of all Creation , be the splendor and glory forever and ever . We thank you Father for sending us your Son -Jesus Christ’s restored name is YAHUW Meoshiyach, our YAHUWshua, meaning YAHUW is the Savior , who has died for our sins so that we may be set free from darkness into light for Your glory forever and ever. Amein and AmaniYAH !
The name that is above every name: YAHUWAH the Father, YAHUWAH the Son and YAHUWAH the set-apart Spirit. (God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit) When the Saviour walked on the earth, He was called YAHUW our YAHUWshua (saviour) and when He was risen , He is called YAHUWAH Meoschiyach, meaning YAHUWAH the eternal King of the family of YAH. He is both God our Saviour- YAHUW our Yahuw‘shua and God our King – Yahuw our Meoschiyach.
