Yahweh and Amen, Christian God and Truth. Coincidence with Pagan Religions?

Who was there to hear "Yahweh" pronounced by Moses in 1635 BC?Only a college professor would dupe the people into believing he has the correct pronunciation.However, the Bible presents the holy name so that it can be pronounced unmistakably in every language today.HYHA - I Am.
HWHY = He Is.
The Septuagint claims the victory for removing God's names from their Bible translation.
They also changed "plural Gods" (Father/Son; Elohim), into "singular God (El) - 2,300 times.The Hebrew person indicators for verbs are:
A = I.
N/Y = He.
H/T = she.
T = you.
W--Y = they."He Is Gods" (Yahweh, Elohim).hoaryhead

Trinity is a lie it is a fabricated lie made by late hands in the bible I have proofs for any one wants.I hope I hear some replies.

I'm curious to see what this has to do with the OP.
where did he talk about the trinity?

The Name YHWH is supposed to be His highest emanation and so even attempting to pronounce it was and is considered very taboo. As you already stated, the proper anunciation has been lost, but it is believed to sound something akin to "ee-ah-ooh-ay."

Now that is interesting. The word "taboo" is Tahitian. I didn't know the South Sea Islands off the coast of the Americas had any influence over the ancient Hebrews.You see the word game can go in practically any direction you want.Edited by jaywill, : No reason given.Edited by jaywill, : No reason given.

That's just silly.

Pointing out the goyish etymology of the word 'taboo' is a cheeky bit of wit, but no real problem exists from this. It's a legitimate word in English and describes a feature of all human cultures. Every culture has its taboos.If we're going to put that word in play, though, let's recognize its defining characteristic: it marks an absolute within the culture. There's no such thing as 'very taboo' or 'slightly taboo.' An act is taboo or it isn't.The Jewish disinclination, then taboo, regarding the speaking out loud of the name of Yahweh took place in the period 'between the testaments.' A glimpse at any passage from the Hebrew Scriptures (Tanakh) shows no one flinching from speaking the proper name of the Hebrew deity. No prohibition on speaking the name appears in the Torah. But by the time the curtain rises in the NT on events in the first century CE, the custom is in place._

What does the word Amen have to do with God? The Egyptian god's name is written to be pronounced: Im'n'n (short I, like bit). Ammun was his Greek name, as far as I know. Often he was associated with Zues, but I've never known him to be associated with the Christian God. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.J0N

Not even your source agrees with your statement. Just read it more carefully.

The Egyptian J’, transliterated Iah (or Jah), was the word for moon. Consequently it was used to refer to the lunar deities:

​

* Chons
* Thoth

---

You see the problem? This "jah" of yours is the name for the moon, and the deities themselves are different.Oh, and pointing out simply word similarities is pointless, since I believe both languages are of the same family... I believe...J0N

Nevermind. I have nothing yet.Edited by jaywill, : No reason given.

Hmmmm. You do realize that for every word in one language, it has the same meaning in another. Hebrews likely didn't have the word taboo, nor did I claim they used this word. However, there is no doubt that they have a word that is synonymous with the Tahitian/English word, 'taboo.'

"The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God." -2^nd Corinthians 10:4-5

That's just it though... If you go back and read what I said, juxtaposed by what he claimed, you'll see that I said nothing remotely about the etymology of the word 'taboo.' I was speaking about the proper enunciation of the word "YHWH.' This is pointless semantics. Are you saying there is not levels of taboo? Are you saying that someone with a penchant to burp loudly in a restaurant is less taboo than someone with a penchant for eating the waiters feces at that same restaurant? That would like saying that there aren't different levels of being wet. Having a glass of water splashed in your lap is less wet than being immersed in a river. Why should something taboo be any different? Then where did HaShem come from? Why only say, "The Name" instead of actually sounding out His name? You may be right in saying that it wasn't always taboo, perhaps in Moses'/Aaron's day, but it is now, and has been for a long time. And if you don't believe me go into just about any Temple and see the horror on their faces. It seems like a silly custom to me, but they take that very seriously. Its as if they believe that humans don't have the right to utter the ineffable.

I was validating your use of the word. My comment about the etymology of the word 'taboo' referred to the retort you got from jaywill. Sorry I was not more clear. Yes. Taboo means 'something we never do.' It marks a cultural absolute. You can imagine some behaviors in this category that would be crazier than others, some more damaging than others, but all are taboo.Incest is taboo in most cultures. Killing innocent persons is taboo. Showing degree of disapproval actually requires more words. We can say behavior is thoughtless, inappropriate, impolite, improper, rude, boorish, unethical, amoral, immoral, and illegal. The terminal station on that track is taboo.Burping is rude. Eating feces is taboo. It's English usage. In context it was not off-topic because someone else had called attention to the etymology of the same word. I offered my comments for the good of the order because I find it an interesting word. But none of this has a material bearing on the argument, no.You are right to describe speaking the name Yahweh as taboo among speakers of Hebrew. I just mentioned that the taboo emerged; for centuries there was no taboo. But for over two thousand years or so one has been observed, as you say. Sure. I'm sure you've also run across spellings like 'G-D' which come from the same impulse.___Edited by Archer Opterix, : whatever.

No doubt. I'd take a look at the expressions rendered in English as 'abomination' or 'detestable.'___
