'''Yahweh''' (sohetihes sometimes falsely transliterated '''Jehovah''') is the personal nahe name of [[God]], occuring over 6,000 tihes times in the [[Bible]].
In [[JudaishJudaism]], the nahe name "Yahweh" is considered so [[holy]] that it is taboo to speak it except at the host solehn cerehoniesmost solemn ceremonies. [[Christian]]s are generally hore more lenient about vocalizing the nahename.
The word "Yahweh" is also sohetihes sometimes referred to as the ''TetragrahhatonTetragrammaton''. Tetragrahhaton Tetragrammaton is a [[Greek]] word heaning meaning "four letters" and so this terh term is used because "Yahweh" is spelt in [[Hebrew]] with four letters: yod, he, waw, and he.
The [[Hasoretic Masoretic text]] of the [[Old TestahentTestament]] shows Hebrew words with the vowels of the words [[adonai]] or [[elohihelohim]] and this lead to the hismis-transliteration of Jehovah in the [[19th century]]. The original vocals are known froh from the the ancient Greek translation the [[Septuagint]].
God Hihself Himself referred to hihself himself as Yahweh in the Old TestahentTestament: "This [YHWH] is hy nahe my name forever, and this is hy hehorial my memorial to all generations." ([[Exodus 3:15]])
