It is an essential element of coming out of pagan Babylonianism, getting back to biblical basics,\u00a0and the restoration of biblical truths in the end times as the following article explains.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Scriptures clearly teach us that YHVH wants his people to use his Hebrew names and titles (e.g. YHVH, Yah, El, Elohim, Adonai and Yeshua). If not, than why is \u201cYHVH,\u201d the personal name of the biblical deity, found in the Tanakh (or Old Testament) almost 7000 times?<\/p>\n<p>Despite the proliferation of the name <i>YHVH<\/i> in the Bible, men are not to use his name carelessly as the third commandments teaches us (Exod 20:7).<\/p>\n<p>The problem is that YHVH\u2019s people have forgotten YHVH\u2019s Hebrew names and worshipped pagan gods instead (Ps 44:20; Jer 23:27). Interesting, it\u2019s a fact that most of our common English substitutes for the Hebrew names of Elohim derive from the names of pagan deities (e.g. God, Lord, Holy, Christ, Jesus). At the same time, the Scriptures prophesy that YHVH\u2019s name will be restored and used again (Jer 23:6; 31:23; Ezek 39:7).<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Satan\u2019s name has never been changed down through the millennia from one language to another. The names of significant Hebrew biblical personalities along with Greek and Roman notable historical figures remain essentially unchanged to our day. However, the Hebrew names of Elohim and his Messiah not only have been changed, but often masked under the names of pre-exisiting pagan deities. Doesn\u2019t this sound like a satanic conspiracy to hide the true identity of the Elohim of the Bible? It\u2019s time for the <!--more-->YHVH\u2019s people to stop acquiescing to these demonic plots begin using the true Hebrew names of Elohim.<\/p>\n<p>In biblical times, YHVH\u2019s name was so precious to his people that the Israelites used it respectfully as a common greeting (Ruth 2:4; Ps 129:8; Jer 31:23).<\/p>\n<p>In the future, the Hebrew name YHVH will be applied to Yeshua at his second coming (Ps 118:26; Matt 23:39). Why shouldn\u2019t his people start using it once again?<\/p>\n<p>The prohibition of the rabbinic Jews about using Elohim\u2019s Hebrew names is not supported biblically, but is a more recent religious doctrine of men that is based on pagan Babylonian religious notions. This is yet another made-made tradition that has made of non-effect the clear word of Elohim (Matt 15:6 ; Mark 7:7\u20139).<\/p>\n<p>For the above-mentioned reasons, we don\u2019t support the prohibition of using the Hebrew names of Elohim.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, if we\u2019re not careful, using the biblical names of Elohim can become a prideful and divisive issue. For some people, it can become a legalistic issue as well. For them, they view negatively those who don\u2019t use the Hebrew names either out of ignorance of the Scriptures, or because of adherence to man-made religious traditions that shun the use of the biblical names of Elohim. This is not good. The importance using the Hebrew names is a revelation from the Spirit of Elohim. Those who haven\u2019t received this revelation yet must be viewed with mercy and grace. The use of the sacred names must never be viewed as a requirement for salvation or fellowship.<\/p>\n<p>Names are important. They not only designate who one is referring to, but behind a name is a reputation. That reputation speaks to the person\u2019s character, authority and power. It is vitally important that YHVH\u2019s people guard the use of his name and not confuse it with the names of pagan deities. In fact, the Torah commands YHVH\u2019s people not even to speak the names of pagan deities (Exod 23:13). As Torah-pursuant people, we need to obey this command. We don\u2019t want to profane the reputation or character of YHVH Elohim through the use of unbiblical and often pagan and demonic names.<\/p>\n<p>Yeshua warned his disciples against following those who come in their own name (John 5:43). The demonic beast adversaries of YHVH in the end times hate and will blaspheme the name of Elohim (Rev 13:6). Most of the people on the earth will follow this evil and blasphemous enemy of Elohim (Rev 13:8). This is what evil, demon-inspired people do. The psalmist lamented this when he cried out, \u201cO Elohim, how long shall the adversary reproach? Shall the enemy blaspheme your name forever?\u2026Remember this, that the enemy has reproached, O YHVH and that the foolish people have blasphemed your name,\u201d (Ps 74:10, 18).<\/p>\n<p><b>Meaning of <i>Name<\/i> in Hebrew<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The Hebrew word <i>shem<\/i>, which is translated in our bibles as <i>name,<\/i> connotes two primary concepts Biblically, a name is a label by which a person is called. Often, but not always, that name reflects some trait about the person. A name is also used to indicate a person\u2019s reputation. The same significance behind the word <i>name<\/i> exists in modern English as well.<\/p>\n<p>To give us an understanding of the broad meaning of the word <i>shem<\/i>, consider the following. <i>Shem<\/i> is translated in the KJV Bible as <i>name<\/i> (832 times), renown (7 times), fame (4 times), famous (3 times), named (3 times), report (1 time) and means \u201cname, reputation, fame, glory, the Name (as designation of Elohim); memorial and monument.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>What Are the Hebrew Names of Elohim in the Bible?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>There are several main names and titles that the Scriptures reveal belong to the Creator. They are the following:<\/p>\n<p><i><strong>YHVH<\/strong>, <\/i>referred to as the tetragrammaton, the personal name of the Creator and occurs some 6800 times in the Tanakh. The exact pronunciation of this name has been lost down through the ages, and there is debate among well-meaning individuals on how to pronounce this four consonant Hebrew name. Because there are now vowels in this name, scholars can only speculate and make educated guesses about what the vowels between the consonants should be. In this author\u2019s opinion, the most likely candidate for the tetragrammaton\u2019s pronunciation based on all the ancient historical, linguistic and literary evidence currently available is Yehovah and not Yehowah, Yahweh, Yahuweh or Yahveh.<\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Elohim<\/i><\/strong> \u2014 This is the next most common name for the Creator occurring more than 2600 times in the Tanakh. It is most often translated as <i>God<\/i> in our English Bibles. This name is plural and can mean \u201cmighty or powerful ones.\u201d It indicates the uni-plural nature of the Godhead and is a reference to the Father, the Son and the Set-Apart Spirit of Elohim.<\/p>\n<p><strong><i>El<\/i> <\/strong>\u2014 This is believed to be a shortened form of Elohim and is found 245 times in the Scriptures and is most often translated as <i>God. <\/i>It means \u201cmighty one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Eloah <\/i><\/strong><i>\u2014<\/i>This is the singular form of Elohim and occurs about 70 times in the Tanakh. It means \u201cmighty or powerful one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Yah<\/i><\/strong> \u2014 This is the shortened form of YHVH and is found 49 times in the Tanakh. It is usually translated into English as <i>Lord.<\/i> In some Bibles, it is written as Yah or Jah in Psalm 68:4.<\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Adonai<\/i><\/strong> \u2014 This title meaning \u201clord, master\u201d occurs 434 times in the Tanakh and is usually translated as <i>Lord<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Yeshua<\/i><\/strong> \u2014 This is the Hebrew name for <i>Jesus<\/i> and is found 29 times in the Tanakh and means \u201che is saved.\u201d It is a shortened form of Yehoshua meaning \u201cYHVH is salvation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Mashiach<\/i><\/strong> \u2014 This is the Hebrew word for <i>messiah<\/i> and is translated into English in the Testimony of Yeshua as <i>Christ<\/i>. It means \u201canointed one\u201d or literally \u201cone smeared with oil.\u201d This word is found 39 times in the Tanakh.<\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Ruach HaKodesh<\/i><\/strong> \u2014 This phrase is found only three times in the Tanakh and refers to the Spirit of Elohim, which, through other terms, is referenced numerous times in the Tanakh. It literally means \u201cset-apart spirit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, when worshipping YHVH Elohim, we suggest you use the following Hebrew words instead of the more common terms that have pagan derivations: Instead of <i>holy <\/i>use <i>kadosh<\/i> or <i>set-apart<\/i>, for glory use <i>kavod<\/i>, for <i>hallowed <\/i>and <i>sacred <\/i>use <i>qodesh<\/i>, for <i>amen<\/i> say <i>amein<\/i>. Of course, the Hebrew word <i>halleluyah<\/i> (and other similar biblical words) is totally acceptable to use when worshipping and praising YHVH. In the Testimony of Yeshua, it\u2019s easy to make the substitutions to the Hebrew names. <i>Jesus<\/i> becomes Yeshua, <i>Christ<\/i> becomes <i>Messiah<\/i>, <i>God <\/i>become <i>Elohim<\/i>, <i>Lord<\/i> becomes <i>Master<\/i> or <i>YHVH<\/i> depending on the context of the passage. If the passage is a quote from the Tanakh where YHVH was used originally or it\u2019s a reference to the deity of Yeshua, then <i>Lord <\/i>becomes <i>YHVH<\/i>. If, for example, the disciples are referring to Yeshua in a colloquial fashion as <i>Lord<\/i>, then a possible substitution would be <i>Master.<\/i><\/p>\n<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemory\"><a href=\"javascript:\" onclick=\"Evernote.doClip({title: 'The Importance of Using the Biblical Names of Elohim',url: 'https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/2017\/01\/20\/biblical-names-of-elohim-2\/',contentID: 'post-10177',suggestTags: 'Adonai,Elohim YHVH,Exodus,Hebrew Names of Deity,Sacred Names,Yeshua',providerName: 'Hoshana Rabbah Blog',styling: 'text' });return false\" class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryLink\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.evernote.com\/article-clipper.png\" \nclass=\"evernoteSiteMemoryButton\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryClear\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The rediscovery and use of the biblical names of deity is a fundamental aspect of returning to the Hebraic roots of the Christian faith.
