RevelationTestament
Our God is a consuming fire.
That is like saying El and Bethel or Michael are variants of the same title. Elohim is the plural of Eloah, and Elim is the plural of El. It is my position that Elohim means something similar to the family of the stone/unmoving force of God.El & Elohim are variants of the same title.
I believe El is best interpreted as God or power. Master is literally interpreted into adon in Hebrew.Strong Shepherd aka Master.
And all Hebrews seem lost as to its meaning. I posit this name means I am the life/way/word. Letter by letter it means Behold the nail Behold the hand. Now the question is did Jesus inherit this name from the Father, and if so why does the father have this name?Yahweh or YHWH, is the name by which God identifies Himself about 7000 times in the OT.
Nice try but no cigar. The OT is clear that only those of Hebrew descent as revealed by Urim and Thummim were allowed back into the city after the Babylonian captivity, and others were fought off.Perhaps you're saying Yahweh is the Lord & not the Father, because of a corrupt tradition the Church inherited from non-OT believing Jews. They spread a lie that God's name is too holy to say out loud. So they had Bible translators change God's word. Whenever the Hebrew Scripture says YHWH, the deceived translators wrote LORD. Thinking it's a sign of respect; but in reality they were damning themselves for changing God's Word.
You see, the Canaanites had a false demon god, whom they called Ba'al; which literally means Lord. So these Ba'al worshipers, pretending to be OT believing Jews, pulled a fast one on the world.
This has nothing to do with Canaanites but was a convention followed from the Septuagint, and the fact that the English translators, although using the Hebrew masoretic text, did not know what YHWH meant.If you want to know the name of the Father, just run a word search for the phrase, "they shall know my name is," to find passages where God is telling us His name. If you see LORD in capitals. It's the deliberate replacement of His name YHWH; which I think is pronounced Yahweh.
