The shocking things that you never knew about the name Yahweh

Yahweh is said by a great many bible scholars and church theologians to be the correct pronunciation of the Creator of Israel's name [YHWH= yode ,he ,waw ,he], but is it? The Roman Catholic church is and has been the mightiest church the world has ever seen, and in our time having more than one billion followers. It's history goes right back to Roman Emperor Constantine the great who established Christianity as a legal religion in Roman Empire times. Would you be amazed to know that the chief God of the Ancient Romans is still being praised and worshipped unknowingly today in our time by a great multitude of Christians and Jews worldwide. The chief God of the Ancient Romans is known to us today as Jupiter, King of the Gods, but Jupiter has an older more ancient name. In English it is Jove and in classical Latin it is spelled IOVE and pronounced Yahweh. If we check a pronunciation chart of classical Latin in a book called Vox Latina, which is one of the most respected and authoritative books on the pronunciation of classical Latin we find that "I" is pronounced as a double "EE" sound as in the word sheep and the "O" is pronounced as a "AH" sound as in the word father and the "V" is pronounced as a "W" as in the word whale and the "E" is pronounced as "EH" as in the word pet. If we put these sounds together EE + AH + W + EH it pronounces YAHWEH. The EE sound + AH sound = YAH and W + EH = WEH, put the two sounds together and it pronounces YAHWEH spelled IOVE in classical Latin which is the King of all the Roman Gods. THE ANCIENT ROMANS WORSHIPED AND PRAISED THE NAME OF YAHWEH. One thing is for sure, YHWH is a Hebrew deity, and IS NOT a Roman deity named YAHWEH = IOVE / JUPITER.

Vulgate Acts14:12 ; sacerdos quoque Iovis qui erat ante civitatem tauros et coronas ante ianuas adferens cum populis volebat sacrificare. Jerome’s Latin Vulgate / Latin Bible

Jupiter (a father that helps ), the Greek Zeus. The Olympian Zeus was the national god of the Hellenic race, as well as the supreme ruler of the heathen world, and as such formed the true opposite to Jehovah. Jupiter or Zeus is mentioned in two passages of the New Testament, on the occasion of St. Paul’s visit to Lystra, (Acts 14:12,13) where the _expression "Jupiter, which was before their city," means that his temple was outside the city. Also in (Acts 19:35) Smith's Bible Dictionary

Jupiter, n. [L. Juppiter or Jupiter from L. Jovis, Jove, and pater, father.] 1. in Roman mythology the god ruling over all other gods and all people: identified with the Greek Zeus. 2. the largest planet in the solar system and the fifth in distance from the sun: diameter, 87,000 mi.; period of revolution, 11.86 yrs.; symbol, 4 . Webster’s new 20th Century Dictionary Unabridged Second Edition. Pg. 992

Jupiter Ju"pi*ter (?), n. [L., fr. Jovis pater. See Jove.] 1. (Rom. Myth.) The supreme deity, king of gods and men, and reputed to be the son of Saturn and Rhea; Jove. He corresponds to the Greek Zeus. 2. (Astron.) One of the planets, being the brightest except Venus, and the largest of them all, its mean diameter being about 85,000 miles. It revolves about the sun in 4,332.6 days, at a mean distance of 5.2028 from the sun, the earth's mean distance being taken as unity. Jupiter's beard. (Bot.) (a) A South European herb, with cymes of small red blossoms (Centranthus ruber). (b) The houseleek (Sempervivum tectorum); -- so called from its massive inflorescence, like the sculptured beard of Jove. Prior. (c) the cloverlike Anthyllis Barba-Jovis. -- Jupiter's staff (Bot.), the common mullein; -- so called from its long, rigid spike of yellow blossoms. Websters dictionary 1913 page 806

Zeus and Foreign Gods From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Zeus was equivalent to the roman god jupiter (from Jovis Pater or "Father Jove")

Jove Jove (n), n. [L. Jupiter, gen. Jovis, OL. Jovis, nom. & gen. for Djovis; akin to E. Tuesday. See tuesday, and cf. Jupiter 1. The chief divinity of the ancient Romans; Jupiter 2. (Astron.) The planet Jupiter. [R.] Pope. 3. (Alchemy) The metal tin. Bird of Jove, the eagle. Webster Dictionary, 1913 (Page: 803)

Dias IN ACTS 14;13 (Greek Διας) D-EE-AH-S/ DYAHS, Dias (Greek Διας)

Compare sound’s of(Greek Διας) dias/dyahs to Latin Djovis/dyahwes ,we can clearly see that dyahwes/djovis is a longer form of dyahs/dias or that dyahs/dias is a shorter form of dyahwes/djovis.

IN ACTS 14:13 (Greek Διας) D-EE-AH-S/ DYAHS, Dias (Greek Διας) THE (O) IN IOVE/JOVE IS PRONOUNCED AS THE {AH / SOUND} as can be seen in its relationship to its Greek counter part Διας /dyahs. THIS MEANS HOW EVER YOU CHOOSE TO PRONOUNCE I-O-V-E IT STILL PRONOUNCES YAHWEH/YAH-OO-EH, PEOPLE SAY WE DON’T TRULY KNOW HOW TO PRONOUNCE I-O-V-E, BUT WE CAN CLEARLY PROVE THEIR ALLEGATIONS TO BE FALSE AND NOT ACCORDING TO THE TRUTH AND THE FACTS.



The Word of Yahweh" (first edition), the Assembly of Yahweh, Eaton Rapids, Michigan, has the following footnote. It is found on page 1106 and is a footnote for Acts 14:12. Footnote #81 for the word "Jupiter". ; “The Greek text has Zeus here. Some” English translations say Jupiter, which is Latin. The Aramaic text says, Mariah Elaha"! It is interesting to note that "Jove" is another name for Jupiter, and would be written "IOUE" Latin.

IT AMAZES ME WHAT SOME PEOPLE REFER TO AS INTERESTING TO NOTE

References about the abomination of desolation; JUPITER/JOVE=YAHWEH

In the temple at Jerusalem on the altar of burnt offering an altar to Jupiter was erected, "the abomination that maketh desolate" (Daniel 11:31), and a swine was sacrificed upon it (see ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION). The immoral practices associated with heathen worship in those days established themselves in the temple. Cheyne, article "Bacchus," EB; Kent, History of the Jewish People, I, 328-29; Josephus, Ant, XII, v, 4. International, Standard Bible Encyclopedia




15. But some said, He casteth out devils by Beelzebub - These he answers, ver. 17. Others, to try whether it were so or no, sought a sign from heaven. These he reproves in ver. 29 and following verses. Beelzebub signifies the Lord of flies, a title which the heathens gave to Jupiter whom they accounted the chief of their gods, and yet supposed him to be employed in driving away flies from their temple and sacrifices. The Philistines worshipped a deity under this name, as the God of Ekron: from hence the Jews took the name, and applied it to the chief of the devils.
Mark iii, 22. WESLEY'S NOTES –Luke 11


31. And arms - Not only of his own army, but many Jews. The sanctuary- Even the holy of holies. The abomination - The statue of Jupiter placed in the temple. WESLEY'S NOTES - DANIEL 11

25. By peace - Under colour of kindness. Against the prince of princes - He fought against God, affronting God’s laws, profaning God’s worship, and temple, and setting up the image and worship of Jupiter there. Without hand- by a disease whereof he died, 1Macc vi, 8. WESLEY'S NOTES - DANIEL 8

In 70 Vespasian's supporters called him back to Rome to become emperor. Titus finished the final siege of Jerusalem, and then erected an idol on the devastated temple altar. Josephus claims 1.1 million Jews were killed and 97,000 enslaved in the war and siege ( (Josephus,Wars, VI, ix, 3).

ABOUT Daniel's prophecy, Kitto says, "This appears to have been a prediction of the pollution of the temple by Antiochus Epiphanes, who caused an idolatrous altar to be built on the altar of burnt offerings, whereon unclean things were offered to Jupiter Olympius, to whom the temple itself was dedicated"
(Encyclopedia of Biblical Literature, John Kitto, Vol. 1, p. 22).

Then Antiochus dispatched troops to Judea in 167 B.C., destroying the temple and its sanctuary. (However, the basic structure of the temple remained intact and was later restored.) This act did away with the daily sacrifice. Antiochus then set up an image directly on the alter of the temple-thus defiling and making it desolate. The image he set up was that of Jupiter Olympus. This is the same image that the historic counterfeit church has pawned off to the world as the image of Jesus Christ. As if this were not enough, Antiochus further alienated the Jews by offering swine's blood upon the alter. A Manual of Ancient History, Rawlinson p. 255.


The phrase at the end of the verse reads, "and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate." The context of the final word "desolate" refers to the perpetrator, or "causer of desolation" (Jamison, Fausett and Brown Commentary, vol. 1, p. 757), hence, the "Desolator"-Satan. To paraphrase: "the abomination shall defile the sanctuary until the end when the appointed doom or judgment falls upon Satan."

There was another later and more specific abomination of the holy place accomplished by emperor Hadrian, who with "...studied insult to the Jews, set up the figure of a boar over the Bethlehem gate of the city which rose upon the site and ruins of Jerusalem (Euseb. Chron., 1, i. p. 45, ed. 1658), but he erected a temple to Jupiter upon the site of the Jewish temple and caused an image of himself to be set up in the part which answered to the most holy place" (Euseb. Chron, Vol. 1, p. 23,ed 1658).

Not content merely to stop the sacrifices, Antiochus desecrated the temple. "A bearded image of the pagan deity (Jupiter Olympus) … (was) set up upon the Temple altar. The Jews popularly spoke of this as 'the abomination of desolation.' Greek soldiers and their paramours performed licentious heathen rites in the very Temple courts. Swine were sacrificed on the altar" (Charles Pfeiffer, Between the Testaments, 1974, p. 81).

Daniel (11:31), in that section of his prophecies which is generally interpreted as referring to the fearful calamities that were to fall on the Jews in the time of Antiochus Epiphanes, says, "And they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate." Antiochus Epiphanes caused an altar to be erected on the altar of burnt offering, on which sacrifices were offered to Jupiter Olympus.
(Compare. 1 Maccabees. 1:57


Daniel (11:31), in that section of his prophecies which is generally interpreted as referring to the fearful calamities that were to fall on the Jews in the time of Antiochus Epiphanes, says, "And they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate." Antiochus Epiphanes caused an altar to be erected on the altar of burnt offering, on which sacrifices were offered to Jupiter Olympus. (Comp. 1 Macc. 1:57).

This was the abomination of the desolation of Jerusalem. The same language is employed in Dan. 9:27 (comp Matt. 24:15), where the reference is probably to the image-crowned standards which the Romans set up at the east gate of the temple (A.D. 70), and to which they paid idolatrous honors. "Almost the entire religion of the Roman camp consisted in worshipping the ensign, swearing by the ensign, and in preferring the ensign before all other gods." These ensigns were an "abomination" to the Jews, the "abomination of desolation." This word is also used symbolically of sin in general (Isa. 66:3); an idol (44:19); the ceremonies of the apostate Church of Rome (Rev. 17:4); a detestable act (Ezek. 22:11).
EASTONS’S 1897 BIBLE DICTONARY


THE GOD OF FORCES: “But in his estate shall he honor the God of forces” Other versions read, “But in their place shall he shall honor the god of fortresses,” “But instead he will honor a god of fortresses,” and “He shall honor a god of fortresses instead of these.” NRVS The words “his estate” has a twofold meaning. From the earthly point of view, they refer to the position his father’s gods occupied. Instead of those Syrian gods, he honored “the God of forces,” or “the God of fortresses.” From heaven’s point of view, it refers to the Almighty God Himself. That is, this king would, in his own thought, assign the position, which God alone occupies, to another god – “the God of forces.” In a place identified with the God of heaven, Antiochus would give honor to “the God of forces.” This false god was Jupiter (the Latin form of the Greek “Zeus”). He was supposed to represent the “fertilizing power of the heavens.” McCLINTOK AND STRONG

The name “Jupiter” means “god of bulwarks,” or fortresses. Antiochus Epiphanes introduced this god to the Syrians, who never before honored it. He erected a temple to this god in his capital city of Antioch, adorning it with all manner of gold, silver, and precious stones. However, the temple was never completed. The real transgression of this wicked king took place when he dared to erect an idol altar to this god upon the very altar of God – the altar of burnt offerings. “Antiochus, after compelling the Jews to call the Temple of Jerusalem THE TEMPLE OF JUPITER OLYMPIUS, built an idol altar upon the altar of God. Upon this altar swine were offered every day, and the broth of their flesh was sprinkled about the Temple.” McCLINTOK AND STRONG

[He Shall Honor] “And a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.” This to refer to Antiochus’ attempt to build a temple to Jupiter, adorned with all manner of precious metals, stones, and the likes. In his renovation of Antioch, the following is said of this king. “Even before he had begun his reign he had contributed to the building of the temple of Zeus (Latin form of Jupiter) in Athens and to the adornment of the theatre. He enlarged Antioch on the Orontes by adding a section to the city (named Epiphania after him). There he built an aqueduct, a council hall, a marketplace, and a temple to Jupiter Capitolinus. .” BRITANNICA 2003



The Romans prohibited Jews from even entering the city of Jerusalem after the city's destruction in A.D. 70. The Jewish revolt of A.D. 132-135 failed and Jews was unable to wrest the site of Jerusalem from the Romans. The Romans rebuilt and fortified the former capital of Judaism, naming it Colonia Aelia Capitolina, which they considered a Roman colony. A heathen temple dedicated to Jupiter Capitolinus was built atop Mt. Moriah where the Jewish Temple had stood. The New Unger's Bible Dictionary.

On the altar of burnt-offerings; the first victim was sacrificed to Jupiter Olympius, on the 25th of the same month.” McCLINTOK AND STRONG



The real transgression of this wicked king took place when he dared to erect an idol altar to this god upon the very altar of God – the altar of burnt offerings. “Antiochus, after compelling the Jews to call the Temple of Jerusalem THE TEMPLE OF JUPITER OLYMPIUS, built an idol altar upon the altar of God. Upon this altar swine were offered every day, and the broth of their flesh was sprinkled about the Temple.” McCLINTOK AND STRONG

“But he also adorned Delos with inscribed altars & an abundance of statues. And at Antioch (he erected) a magnificent temple to Capitoline Jove [=Jupiter], not only with a ceiling lined with gold but with walls completely covered with gilded panels. And he did not complete many other project’s promised to other places, since his reign was very brief.” INTO HIS OWN, by MAHLON H SMITH, 1999

Mauzzim: (fortresses). The marginal note to the Authorized Version of Da 11:38 "the god of forces," gives as the equivalent of the last word "Mauzzim, or gods protectors, or munitions." There can be little doubt that mauzzim is to be taken in its literal sense of "fortresses," just as in Da 11:19,39 "the god of fortresses" being then the deity who presided over strongholds. The opinion of Gesenius is that "the god of fortresses" was Jupiter Capitolinus, for whom Antiochus built a temple at Antioch. Liv. xli. 20. Smith's Bible Dictionary

(6.) He cast down the place of his sanctuary. He did not burn and demolish the temple, but he cast it down, when he profaned it, made it the temple of Jupiter Olympius, and set up his image in it. He also cast down the truth to the ground, trampled upon the book of the law, that word of truth, tore it, and burnt it, and did what he could to destroy it quite, that it might be lost and forgotten for ever. These were the projects of that wicked prince.

. [3.] The question itself that was asked: "How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice? How long shall the prohibition of it continue? How long shall the pleasant land be made unpleasant by that severe interdict? How long shall the transgression of desolation (the image of Jupiter), that great transgression which makes all our sacred things desolate, how long shall that stand in the temple? How long shall the sanctuary and the host, the holy place and the holy persons that minister in it, be trodden under foot by the oppressor?’’ MATTHEW HENRY, COMMENTARY ON DANIEL 8.

This indeterminate period, which has now spanned more than nineteen hundred years comes between the sixty-ninth week of years and the seventieth of the prophecy. The seventieth week, a week of seven years, is yet to be fulfilled for Israel. As you read of this you will see that this is what the book of Revelation and other prophetic passages call "the great tribulation," the time of Jacob's trouble. It lies ahead; it has been broken off from the other sixty-nine and is yet to be fulfilled. RAY STEDMAN, COMMENTARY ON DANIEL 9.
DO YAHWEHISTS INVOKE THE NAME OF THE ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION? ; IOVE/YAHWEH/JUPITER.

Ju"pi*ter (?), n. [L., fr. Jovis pater. See Jove.] 1. (Rom. Myth.) The supreme deity, king of gods and men, and reputed to be the son of Saturn and Rhea; Jove. He corresponds to the Greek Zeus. Page 806 websters dictionary 1913

Jove(?), n. [L. Jupiter, gen. Jovis, OL. Jovis, nom. & gen. for Djovis; akin to E. Tuesday. See Tuesday, and cf. Jupiter.] 1. The chief divinity of the ancient Romans; Jupiter. 2. (Astron.) The planet Jupiter. [R.] Pope. 3. (Alchemy) The metal tin. Bird of Jove, the eagle. Jove (Page: 803) websters dictionary 1913.

The references below show that the ROMANS were worshiping JOVE/ YAHWEH/ JUPITER before 650 BCE / 509 BCE / 295 BCE.

The reason for proving this now will become clearly apparent later in this study, when showing that the Romans did not adopt IOVE/YAHWEH from the Hebrews.

Perhaps you will find some relevance to this statement in the Book of Secrets of Enoch that Zeus is the name for the archangel that was put over the earth... Hummnnnnn?????

http://www.amightywind.com/enoch/enochsecret.htm


CHAPTER 30
And then I created all the heavens, and the third day was, [Tuesday]

1
On the third day I commanded the earth to make grow great and fruitful trees, and hills, and seed to sow, and I planted Paradise, and enclosed it, and placed as armed guardians flaming angels, and thus I created renewal.

2
Then came evening, and came morning the fourth day.

3
[Wednesday]. On the fourth day I commanded that there should be great lights on the heavenly circles.

4
On the first uppermost circle I placed the stars, Kruno, and on the second Aphrodit, on the third Aris, on the fifth Zoues, on the sixth Ermis, on the seventh lesser the moon, and adorned it with the lesser stars.

Sorry for the error in my comment above...actually..according to this book Zeus was put over the planet Mars and Aris over the earth.

Patrick, your writing is obviously well researched...but I believe it was Jude who wrote how people in his time were speaking evil of dignataries....therefore just because some ancient author equates Zeus with Jupiter....does not necessarily mean that this is true...If you will take the time to compare chapter 29 and 30 of the Book of Secrets of Enoch...you will see a definite contrast between Zeus and the angel who attempted to exalt his throne above the throne of the Eternal...

CHAPTER 29
Then it became evening, and then again morning, and it was the second [Monday]; The fiery essence

1
And for all the heavenly troops I imaged the image and essence of fire, and my eye looked at the very hard, firm rock, and from the gleam of my eye the lightning received its wonderful nature, which is both fire in water and water in fire, and one does not put out the other, nor does the one dry up the other, therefore the lightning is brighter than the sun, softer than water and firmer than hard rock.

2
And from the rock I cut off a great fire, and from the fire I created the orders of the incorporeal ten troops of angels, and their weapons are fiery and their raiment a burning flame, and I commanded that each one should stand in his order.

3
And one from out the order of angels, having turned away with the order that was under him, conceived an impossible thought, to place his throne higher than the clouds above the earth, that he might become equal in rank to my power.

4
And I threw him out from the height with his angels, and he was flying in the air continuously above the bottomless.
