why not Yahuah?

[Mencel89]

@thegreatgeo1 because in Hebrew, after every consenant is a vowel. In other words, you don't write a word as c-v-c-c-v or c-v-c-v-v-c (c=consenants and v=vowels).

[malkatzadik]

I AM YAH VEH : that is MY NAME : and My tifereth/glory will NOT! give to another, neither My hallel/ praise to graven images! ! yeshaYAHu/ isaiah 42:8

[thegreatgeo1]

thank you for such quick respond. I don't use Yahuah but it seems everybody is acting like that's it because they took the daleth outta yehudah! They get sooo cocky with it as if the Father's Spirit is really with them cause they call out Yahuah!

@bandaidmafia er, that should read consecutive consonants.

@dunklaw I believe it was sometime around the 8th century that diacritical marks were added by the Masoretes. This is important for the text because a variety of words could be produced depending on which vowels were added.

Consider if you had the consecutive vowels in English "BG". Adding vowels to them you might make any number of words such as: big, bag, bog etc. Anyways, Mencel can probably give you a much better explanation but hope that helps.

God bless.

When were these vowel pointing's introduced? & how would the understanding of the word be altered by the addition of the vowel pointing's?

Conceptually I think the best translation is "HE - WHO - IS".
