Jehovah, Yahweh, and the Lord Jesus: A Study in the History of Doctrine Anent God's Name JHVH

God has commanded his people to "call upon his name" and even to "glory" in it (Psalm 105:1-3). Bible translations from the Reformation era (e.g., Tyndale, Geneva, King James) sometimes transliterated God's sacred name as "Jehovah." Believing this to be an accurate and important decision, the American Standard Version (1901) applied this translation over five-thousand times in the Old Testament. A later revision, however, removed every occurrence. Modern scholarship has generally concluded that the proper pronunciation of God's name was lost long ago and that the closest approximation is "Yahweh." The Legacy Standard Bible (2021) has adopted this rendering. In this volume, the Rev. Dr. Francis Nigel Lee summarizes the debate, presents the biblical data, offers several insights from church history, and concludes with some practical observations.
