WWW Masada (Ware Verbond/True Covenant)

Names for our Creator & others:

Father:

  • YHWH - alternatives are Yahuweh, Yahueh, Yahweh, Jahweh (Afrikaans only), etc. - correction for LORD
  • Elohim or El -  instead of God
  • Adonai - instead of Lord
  • Master - alternative for Adonai
  • El Shaddai

Y'shua:

  • Yahushua - alternatives are Yeshua, Yashua, Y'shua - replacements for Jesus
  • Adonai - instead of Lord
  • Master - alternative for Adonai
  • Messiah - replaces Christ - although we are positive he was not The Messiah but only a messiah

Spirit of Elohim

  • Spirit of the Father
  • Spirit of Jahweh/YHWH
  • Set-apart Spirit - Ruach HaKodesh
  • Spirit of Truth - Ruach HaEmet
  • Holy Spirit/Ghost - not used. The word 'holy' has many gentile and sun worship connotations.

Names of People and Places in the Scriptures

  • Kěfa - pronounced Kaifa instead of Peter or Cephas
  • Yoḥanan - pronounced Yochanan for John (the 'ḥ' = 'ch' as the 'ch' in loch)
  • Sha'ul -   for Paul/Saul
  • Yarushalayim - Jerusalem
  • Bět Leḥem - pronounced Bait Lechem for Bethlehem (the 'ḥ' = 'ch' as the 'ch' in loch)

Other:

  • BCE - Before Common Era (normally known as BC)
  • CE - Common Era (normally known as AD)
  • Set-apart, Kodesh, Qodesh - instead of holy

 


The reason for the correction of names of people and places is simply to preserve the original and  / or to obatin beter meaning. Bet Leem for instance means House of Bread. Leem is Bread and can also be used wider for food. The word "LEHEM" though without the gutteral "ch" sound has no meaning. The Hebrew letter that is normally translated with an "H" can be pronounced as a "CH" or "H", depending on the word and syntax.
