יהוה

יהוה_c. 6823 i.e. יַהְוֶה n.pr.dei Yahweh, the proper name of the God of Israel—(1. MT יְהוָֹה₆₅₁₈ (Qr אֲדֹנָי), or יֱהוִֹה₃₀₅ (Qr אֱלֹהִים), in the combinations אדני יהוה & יהוה אדני (vid. אֲדֹנָי), and with prep. בַּיהוָֹה, לַיהוָֹה, מֵיהוָֹה (Qr בַּאדֹנָי, לַאדֹנָי, מֵאדֹנָי), do not give the original form. 𝔊 and other Vrss follow the Qr. On the basis of Ex 20:7; Lv 24:11 יהוה was regarded as a nomen ineffabile (vid. Philo de Vita Mosis iii, 519, 529), called by the Jews הַשֵּׁם and by the Samaritans שׁימא. The pronunciation Jehovah was unknown until 1520, when it was introduced by Galatinus; but it was contested by Le Mercier, J. Drusius, and L. Capellus, as against grammatical and historical propriety (cf. Bö^{§ 88}). The traditional Ἰαβέ of Theodoret and Epiphanius, the ־יָהוּ, יְהוֹ־ of compound n.pr. and the contracted form יָהּ, all favour יַהְוֶה (cf. יַהֲלֹמ֑וּן ψ 74:6; תַּהֲרוּ Is 33:11), v. Lag^{Sym. i. 14} Baudissin^{Studien i. 179 ff.}; Dr^{Stud. Bib. i. 1 ff.} For Jeve v. Sta^{ZAW 1881, 346} De ^{ib. 1882, 173 f. & Gn. Excurs. ii}. 2. on liter. of interpret. v. Nes^{Eg 67} Dr^l.c..—Many recent scholars explain יַהְוֶה as Hiph. of הוה (= היה) the one bringing into being, life-giver (cf. הַוָּה Gn 3:20) Schr HSch; giver of existence, creator, Kue Tiele; he who brings to pass (so already Le Clerc), performer of his promises, Lag, Nes.^{Eg 88} (but Nes^{Eg. 91} inclines to Qal as RS^{Brit. & For. Ev. Rev.} v. infr.); or from הוה he who causes to fall, rain or lightning RS^{OTJC ed. 1, 423; om. ed. 2, 245}, cf. We^{Skizzen iii. 175}; ‘Fäller,’ destroying foes, Sta^{G. i. 429} (dubiously). But most take it as Qal of היה (= היה); the one who is: i.e. the absolute and unchangeable one, Ri; the existing, ever-living, as self-consistent and unchangeable, Di; or the one ever coming into manifestation as the God of redemption, De Oehl; cf. also RS^{Brit. & For. Ev. Rev. 1876}, he will be it, i.e. all that his servants look for (cf. Ew^infr.), he will approve himself (give evidence of being, assert his being Dr^{l. c. 17})). theories of non-Heb. or non-Sem. origin. opposed (in their older forms) by Bau^{Rel i. 181 ff. (v. especially 230)}; Dl^{Pa 162 ff.} claimed Bab. origin for יהו, against this Kue^{National religions, etc., Note iv (Eng. Trans. 329 ff.)} Jastr^{JBL xiii (1894), 103 f.} cf. Hpt^{BAS i. 170 N}; Dl ^{Babel u. Bibel, 46 f., 73 f.} makes same claim for יהוה, agst. this v. especially Hirsch^{ZAW xxiii (1903), 355 ff.} Zim^{KAT 3, 465 ff.}; Spiegelberg^{ZMG liii (1899), 633 ff.} proposes (improb.) Egyptian etymol. for יהוה; further discussions see in Kö^{EB Names, § 112 and n. 3}. ‘Jehovah’ found in Jacob (? Johann.) Wessel († 1480), according to Schwally^{ThLZ, 1905, col. 612}.
I. יהוה is not used by E in Gn, but is given Ex 3:12—15 as the name of the God who revealed Himself to Moses at Horeb, and is explained thus: אֶהְיֶה עִמָּ֑ךְ I shall be with thee (v 12), which is then implied in אֶהְיֶה אֲשֶׁר אֶהְיֶה I shall be the one who will be it v 14a (i.e. with thee v 12) and then compressed into אֶהְיֶה v 14b (i.e. with thee v 12), which then is given in the nominal form יהוה He who will be it v 15 (i.e. with thee v 12). Cf. Ew^{BTh ii. 337, 338} RS^{l. c., Proph. 385 ff.} Other interpretations are: I am he who I am, i.e. it is no concern of yours (Le Clerc Lag^{Psalt. Hieron. 156}); I am, (this is my name), inasmuch as I am (אֲשֶׁר = כִּי; AE JDMich We^{JD Th xxi, 540 = Comp. Hex. 72}); Di al. I am who I am, he who is essentially unnameable, inexplicable.—E uses יהוה sparingly by the side of אלהים and האלהים in his subsequent narrative. The Ephraimitic writers in Ju S K use it in similar proportions. P abstains from the use of יהוה until he gives an account of its revelation to Moses Ex 6:3; but subsequently uses it freely. He gives no explanation of its meaning. He represents that אֵל שַׁדַּי was the God of the patriarchs. J uses יהוה from the beginning of his narrative, possibly explaining it, Gn 21:33 by אל עולם, the evergreen tamarisk being a symbol of the ever-living God; cf. De Gn 21:33. Elsewhere יהוה is the common divine name in pre-exilic writers, but in post-exilic writers gradually falls into disuse, and is supplanted by אלהים and אדני. In Job it is used 31 times in prose parts, and 12:9 (a proverb); not elsewhere in the poem. Chr apart from his sources prefers אלהים and האלהים. Dn uses יהוה only in chap. 9 (7 times); Ec not at all. In the Elohistic group of ψ 42—83 it is used 39 times (see אלהים). It occurs as the name of Israel’s God MI ¹⁸. It is doubtful whether it was used by other branches of the Shemitic family, cf. COT Gn 2:4b Dl^{Pa 158 ff.} Dr^{Stud. Bib. i. 7 ff.}

Note. —Bonk^{ZAW 1891, 126 ff.} seems to shew that as prefix, in comp. n.pr., יְהוֹ is the oldest and the latest form and that יוֹ is intermediate, belonging to the earlier post-exilic period until the time of Chr; occasional copyists’ mistakes being taken into the account.
