So, I have a question for anyone who knows a little bit about Hebrew. I've seen many who know the Hebrew language pretty well still using the name Yahweh even though there is no letter "W" in the Hebrew language. And upon further investigation I discovered that it is believed that the "waw" in ancient Hebrew was changed to the vav. I do not know this for certain, but I do know for sure it isn't in modern Hebrew, and I'd learned bits and pieces of ancient Hebrew and never heard of the "waw". Part of my issue with this is even though certain people believe there was a letter W in the Hebrew, they also incorporate the vav in ancient Hebrew as well. It's just very inconsistent to use the letter W only for God's name, but not for anything else, especially if they believe that the letter W was changed to the vav in modern Hebrew, so the vav would have been the letter W in ancient Hebrew, but when reading ancient Hebrew there is no W, but a vav. It's confusing and frustrating. Hopefully someone coming across this will have some answers. Thank you so much if you read this to the end lol???
One obstacle in building healthy relationships between Jews and Christians is the relative ignorance each has of the other. That’s something David Nekrutman talks about in this second part of our four-part conversation. He begins by addressing the many Judaisms of the First Century which shaped the environment in which Yeshua of Nazareth lived – a subject that most Christians don’t understand, but which would greatly enhance their faith as they learn the historical and cultural context of the Gospels. David then goes on to describe the difference between Christian-Jewish relations and Christian support for Israel. Are they two different things, or two interrelated parts of the same interfaith dynamic?
There is something prophetic about the growth of Jewish-Christian dialogue in recent years. Barry Phillips and David Jones touch on that in their midrash, “Sign of His Coming.” We hear other aspects of it in the music of Laura Metzing and Rut Banks.

...when Rebekah had conceived children by one man, our forefather Isaac, though they were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad—in order that God's purpose of election might continue, not because of works but because of him who calls...
Romans 9:10-11
God didn't choose Jacob because he was a great man. God chooses whom He will for His own reasons. Esau wasn't hated because of anything he did, but because of who he was and wasn't.
Who is Esau to object to Isaac's calling? The nations to object to Israel's calling? Who is the pot to question the potter or the vine to question the gardener? God's choices aren't arbitrary, but they might appear so. He doesn't ask our opinion or owe us explanation.
#witchcraft #falseprophecy #ezekiel 13:17-23 Likewise, thou son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, which prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy thou against them,
And say, Thus saith the Master YHVH; Woe to the women that sew pillows to all armholes, and make kerchiefs upon the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you?
And will ye pollute me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your lying to my people that hear your lies?
Wherefore thus saith the Master YHVH; Behold, I am against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly.
Your kerchiefs also will I tear, and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and ye shall know that I am YHVH.
Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life:
Therefore ye shall see no more vanity, nor divine divinations: for I will deliver my people out of your hand: and ye shall know that I am YHVH.

You might also find books from Keith Johnson and/or Nehemiah Gordon helpful in your research.
I just don’t argue/debate with anyone insisting on Yahweh or any other variation. .

Those of us who use the “w” sound are trying to recreate as best we can the original pronunciation of the Name of God. But “Yehovah” probably makes more grammatical sense to a modern Hebrew speaker.
