When I started examining the Word and realized that The Name of our Creator, the Most High Alahyam, the Father, had been taken out and replaced with the titles, Lord and God, that raised my eyebrows and I started to investigate. The book, Come Out of Her My People, was a pivotal time for my long time belief as a Christian. I am so thankful to my friend Mackenzie for organizing book reading together. I highly recommend getting a group of eager sisters together to do the same. It’s so encouraging to study with others in a similar time on their walk.
I kept saying, “Well nobody knows how to pronounce it anyway.” “It’s okay if I want to just call Him lord or god.” “If it mattered, He would show me.” Well then He did show me. First through the book and the origins of Lord and God which made me not comfortable to use them in referencing Yahuah any longer. A short explanation of notes from the book.
“And it shall be, in that day,” declares 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, “that you call Me ‘My Husband,’ and no longer call Me ‘My Ba‛al.’ And I shall remove the names of the Ba‛als from her mouth, and they shall no more be remembered by their name.
Husha/Hosea 2:16-17
-Lord originates from Larth/Lars the deity from Etruscan invoked together with Janus, Jupiter, Mars, Quirinus, and Bellona. The Greek equivalent was Heros, Zeus. Feminine form of Mercury, Lara. Sun deity. Larissaeus, Apollo, Larasios, Lariseus, Helios. Can you see the identity between Lard, Lord, Larth, Lor, Lar, Lortheu, Lartheow, Lardewe? Loride – Thorn the Teutonic war diety, also sun god. Surname Hlorridhi, Hloridi, Loride, Lord. Lordo/Lordon, lordosis the curvature of the spine or body, which also had a sensual meaning.
“But you are those who forsake 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, who forget My set-apart mountain, who prepare a table for Gad, and who fill a drink offering for Meni.
Yashayahu/Isaiah 65:11
-God/Gad/GD/G-D the Syrian or Canaanite deity of good luck or fortune, Meni the deity of destiny. Gad is Jupiter, Mene is Dea Luna/Moon. Gud/Gawd in Scandanavia languages. Gott was used as Beiname for diety Oden, in German beiname means surname. Goda was a proper name of an idol and relates to Wodan/Odan/Godan amongst Teutonic tribes.
I receive questions like “Why do you keep pronouncing words weird and not using the Rabbinical Modern Hebrew with the vowel pointings and consonant changings?” My answer is simple. I don’t believe the pictograph or paleo had all these vowels. There was no V in the ancient Hebrew and I don’t think that looking at the picture/paleo you would be like oh yes this time bayt says b, but next time v. It doesn’t make logical sense. It’s confusion and chaos to always have to know your vowel pointings.
Tsapanayah/Zephaniah the word for clean lip is ShaPAh, language, speech, vessel. It’s interestingly to note that it is close to Shupar/shofar/ram’s horn which is the sound of Yahuah’s voice.
“For then I shall turn unto the peoples a clean lip, so that they all call on the Name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, to serve Him with one shoulder.
Tsapanayah/Zephaniah 3:9
There are many Scriptures that talk about knowing Him and His Name (Sham) 𐤔𐤌. This also encompasses His Character. This post is less about the pronunciation than realizing that He in fact HAS a Name and it’s important to Him. *THIS IS NOT INTENDED TO BE DIVISIVE BUT SHARE WHERE WE ARE IN THE PRONUNCIATION AND WHY* The slides I’m using are older and I continually grow in my understanding and trying to nail down the purest form that I can. I’m not trying to be a Hebrew teacher here, just show you connections.
“You do not bring the Name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 your Alahyam to naught, for 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 does not leave the one unpunished who brings His Name to naught.
Shamut/Exodus 20:7
The word used here is ShUA 𐤔𐤅𐤀 and is often translated as vain. It can mean emptiness, vanity, falsehood, emptiness of speech, nothingness, lying, worthlessness (of conduct), uselessness (deceptive), figuratively: idolatry – false.
Let’s use this analogy. My name is Natalie. For simplicity sake, some of my titles are wife, mother, daughter, homemaker, teacher, baker, etc. You can get an idea of one aspect of me through my titles. Just like Yahuah is His Name. A few of His titles are AL/ALAhYaM 𐤀𐤋𐤄𐤉𐤌 (Might one), AB 𐤀𐤁 (Father), BaRa’A 𐤁𐤓𐤀 (Creator), ShaDaY 𐤔𐤃𐤉 (Almighty). Some attributes He calls Himself are shield, rock, qadash (set-apart) . He hears, is compassionate, does marvelous wonders, our redeemer.
“A son esteems his father, and a servant his master. And if I am the Father, where is My esteem? And if I am a Master, where is My fear? said 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts to you priests who despise My Name. But you asked, ‘In what way have we despised Your Name?’
Malakay (Malachi) 1:6
The statement “I am 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 Yahuah” appears 163 times so it must be important! Let’s investigate where Scripture shows us this matters.
“I am 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, that is My Name, and My esteem I do not give to another, nor My praise to idols.
Yashayahu 42:8
Why is it that we know the name of every single deity under the heavens, but don’t know the Name of the AL who Created us for His purpose to do His will? Wouldn’t you like to know the Man you’re serving?
Barak (Bless) 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, O my being, And all that is within me, Barak His qadash Name!
Tahlayam (Psalm) 103:1
“Do not fear, for I am with you. I shall bring your seed from the east, and gather you from the west. I shall say to the north, ‘Give them up!’ And to the south, ‘Do not keep them back!’ Bring My sons from afar, and My daughters from the ends of the earth – all those who are called by My Name, whom I have created, formed, even made for My esteem. You are My witnesses,” declares 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, “And My servant whom I have chosen, so that you know and believe Me, and understand that I am He. Before Me there was no AL formed, nor after Me there is none. I, I am 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, and besides Me there is no saviour. I, I have declared and saved, and made known, and there was no foreign mighty one among you. And you are My witnesses,” declares 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, “that I am AL,
Yashayahu 43:5-7, 10-12 (really go read the whole beautiful regathering story)
“And now, what have I here,” declares 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, “that My people are taken away for naught? Those who rule over them make them wail,” declares 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, “and My Name is despised all day continually. Therefore My people shall know My Name, in that day, for I am the One who is speaking. See, it is I.” Yashayahu 52:5-6 (another beautiful passage to read in entirety)
“Therefore see, I am causing them to know, this time I cause them to know My hand and My might. And they shall know that My Name is 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄!”
Yaramayahu 16:21
Multiple times Mashayach/Messiah Yahusha 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 tells us He comes in His Father’s Name. (Yuchanan/John 5:43, 10:25) He is the fullness of the Turah/Word loving instructions of our Father. He showed us how to walk them out while on earth. We know that Turah and Yahusha are called the Word, Living Water, Bread of Life, The Way, The Truth, Light. They are synonymous with one each other so wouldn’t that tell us that’s part of the Father’s character and how He wants all to live?
And I looked and saw a Lamb standing on Mount Tsayun/Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father’s Name written upon their foreheads……….Here is the endurance of the qadash ones, here are those guarding the commands of Alahyam and the belief of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏.
Chazun/Revelation 14:1,12
Do you sense the urgency in this last verse? He comes back to judge every single person by their deeds/works. Will I be found worthy? Have I prepared my garments?
“Because you have guarded My Word of endurance, I also shall guard you from the hour of trial which shall come upon all the world, to try those who dwell on the earth. See, I am coming speedily! Hold what you have that no one take your crown. He who overcomes, I shall make him a supporting post in the Dwelling Place of My Alahyam, and he shall by no means go out. And I shall write on him the Name of My Alahyam and the name of the city of My Alahyam, the renewed Yarushalam (Jerusalem), which comes down out of the heaven from My Alahyam, and My renewed Name.”
Chazun/Revelation 3:10-12
It’s interesting what timing the Father has. I was encouraged to finish up this study I’ve been stuck on for awhile when I saw another sister, Stephanie posting about what I had been chewing on for some time. Download her pdf for some more info. I also have more Bible Study Resources on the blog and am collectively adding Abarayam/Hebrew.
