Yahweh
This short article presents a topic further elaborated: YHWH.
"Yahweh" or "Yahweh" is a transcript long used by the Catholic Church , and now regarded as erroneous, obtained by inserting two vowels and to give shape to pronounce the four consonants of the Tetragrammaton YHWH , the name of the God of the Hebrews in the Old Testament.
In the Middle Ages, the authors have preferred " Jehovah ", obtained by adding the three vowels e, o and.
The Jews never transcribed nor pronounced the divine name, which is ineffable in nature. Only the Cohen Gadol was deemed to know the secret, before the destruction of the Temple of Jerusalem.
