You don't even need to be able to read Hebrew to see the difference.
I can read and pronounce Hebrew. I've been studying this subject for about 30 years. Your bare assertion fallacies aren't going to persuade me.
We'll just have to agree to disagree.
Nehemia Gordon on the Name of God - Nehemia's Wall
STOP fighting about this...His Name is Holy and Sacred...DO NOT use it to fight...DO NOT use it in a vain way!
I've seen his arguments. I'm not a Gordon fan.
It seems that you have joined the fight. I view that propagation of falsehoods, concerning his kadosh name, as being in a vain way.
Where do you stand?
The words "I am," do not mean "self existent one."
Philippians 2:9 Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him the name above all names, 10that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth
have a great day! God bless.
Hi All,
IS KNOWING AND USING GOD'S NAME IMPORTANT?
Simple answer, the Lord of All creation answers to His name.
People do not understand the sin of taking the name of the Lord in vain.
Imagine if every time someone mentioned your name you appeared there, hearing the conversation and learning about what is going on. And you are God.
Do you understand how terrible that is if this level of attention is abusive and sinful?
The Lord gives us great privilege to enter His presence, yet it is often dealt with lightly.
The Lord is truly loving and supportive, so to dishonour Him is to cause harm to ourselves and this love, which is more precious than gold.
God bless you
Yet you posted HIS site (Karaite-Korner) to try to prove your point???
NO, I am trying to STOP your fight! You are both fighting regarding His Name...
Matt 1:20-21
She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Yahshua, because he (Yah) will save (Shua) his people from their sins.
Yah is the hyphenated form of YHWH. Shua, in hebrew, means save.
Yah-shua means that YHWH saves
Yahshua
Hi All,
IS KNOWING AND USING GOD'S NAME IMPORTANT?
First off yes it is important as it is reflected in the third commandment *Exodus 20:7 and we are not to use it in vain but what does that mean?
I just thought this was an interesting topic as I know people that believe God needs to be called by a specific name or else type of thing. So at some point I wanted to know if this is important or not. We know that in the new testament Jesus is God and we have God the father but in the old testament many believe that God's name is YAHWEH/JEHOVAH.
What I found interesting in this topic was the way the Hebrews named things. Unlike what we do in our culture, the names given by the Hebrews is very descriptive of what is being named. Sometimes parents of Children would not even name their new born babies until sometime later after they had the chance to study the child's character, then a name would be given based on the child's dominant character trait or something that the parents wanted for the child.
Anyhow I had a look and found that in the old and new testament scriptures the same concept applied when giving God names. God has many names that are descriptive of the character of God in the old and new testament. I believe that is because who can describe God with one name right?

QUESTIONS (scripture support if possible)
Q1. What name of God do you use in prayer and why?
Q2. Does it matter what we name God in your view and why?
Q3. Can we really put a descriptive name on God if God goes beyond description
Q4. What does it mean to use God's name in vain? (answered linked)

NAMES OF GOD IN THE OLD TESTAMENT (Hebrew)
To me God has many names. For me I use Lord, Jesus and my Heavenly father. If you would like to use YAHWEH/JEHOVAH does it matter? To me personally it is where the heart is not what name you wish to call God as he has many names and he knows when you are trying to talk to him and seek him.
YHWH / YAHWEH / JEHOVAH [yah-way / ji-hoh-veh]: “HE IS, SELF EXISTENT, LORD” (Deuteronomy 6:4; Daniel 9:14) – strictly speaking, the only proper name for God in the old testament. Translated in English Bibles “LORD” (all capitals) to distinguish it from Adonai, “Lord.” The revelation of the name is first given to Moses “I Am who I Am” (Exodus 3:14). This name specifies an immediacy, a presence. Yahweh is present, accessible, near to those who call on Him for deliverance (Psalm 107:13), forgiveness (Psalm 25:11) and guidance (Psalm 31:3).
EH-YEH [haw-yaw]: “I AM THAT I AM” (Exodus 3:14) The self existent one. Jesus claiming the title (John 8:58) εἰμί eimi meaning “I EXIST”
EL, ELOAH [el, el-oh-ah]: God "mighty, strong, prominent" (Nehemiah 9:17; Psalm 139:19) – etymologically, El appears to mean “power” and “might” (Genesis 31:29). El is associated with other qualities, such as integrity (Numbers 23:19), jealousy (Deuteronomy 5:9), and compassion (Nehemiah 9:31), but the root idea of “might” remains.
General Terms: The common impersonal words for ‘deity’ in Greek are absent from those LXX books that are derived from the Hebrew canon of the OT and appear only once in the remainder of the LXX (Wisd. of Sol. 18:9). Correspondingly, ‘Deity’ as a term for God is found in the NT only in Paul’s address to the Athenians in Acts of the Apostles 17:29, and in Colossians 2:9. (source here)

God bless.
Gods name is YHWH. We don't know the vowel points. I am convinced He gave that more as a description of HIm than as an actual name! For it means roughly " I am who I am".
Except it does not work that way...the word used would be Yoshia...
Have you ever said Havdalah? El Yeshuati...
If you are coming to me, in an attempt to have me desist from refuting false claims; then you have come to the wrong person.
If we start with scripture, to support a conclusion; it would be wise to take that conclusion back to scripture, to see if the conclusion is still in agreement with scripture.
(CLV) Ac 4:12
And there is not salvation in any other one, for neither is there any other name, given under heaven among men, in which we must be saved."
YesheYahu (Isa) 43:
11 I, even I, am YHWH; and beside Me there is no savior
(CLV) Jn 5:43
I have come in the name of My Father, and you are not getting Me. If another should be coming in his own name, him you will get.
Matt 1:20-21
20 But after he had considered this, an angel of Yahweh appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Yahshua, because he (Yah) will save (Shua) his people from their sins.
Yah is the hyphenated form of YHWH. Shua, in hebrew, means save.
Yah-shua means that YHWH saves
Yahshua
Exodus 3
15 Elohim, furthermore, said to Moses, "Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, ' YHWH, the Elohim of your fathers, the Elohim of Abraham, the Elohim of Isaac, and the Elohim of Jacob, has sent me to you.' This is My name FOREVER, and this is My memorial-name to all generations.
Can you show me one verse where our heavenly father gives us another name to be called by?
(CLV) Ps 105:1
Acclaim YHWH! Call on His Name! Make known His actions among the peoples!

The Malach is giving the reason that his name will be Yahshua. That what the word "for" means. It's the reason for his given name.
Can you show me where YHWH commands this in scripture?
LOL, your own site you posted proved my point. Show me one Hebrew name that uses the prefix Yah....his Name will be Yeshua because Yoshia. Havdalah is Jewish Tradition...I could quote you Paul. That was not the point...it is Hebrew grammer that I was showing you. You do know that same website teaches the lunar Sabbath...which I believe you also disagree with??? They also use the Zohar and Talmud, which I believe you also do not agree with?
