No Such Deity Name "God/god"!

[nasheayahu]

Shalum,

The sound and modern name "God/god" is of Germanic origin. North American English which originated from England is a dialect of its mother tongue German. This word was used before any of the Germanic clans were converted over to the Roman Catholic Religion and definitely before they created the Religion of Christianity!

So what was the original meaning of the sound and/or word when it was spoken? If it pointed to a deity, then what deity? Because it doesn't point to the deity of Abraham, Yats'qakh & Ya'aqub.

What does it matter what name is used in English? Surely the concept it refers to is what is important.

Let's head over to Wikipedia, shall we.

Also, English and German are both Germanic languages, but English is not a dialect of German.


"The English word God continues the Old English God (guþ, gudis in Gothic, gud in modern Scandinavian, God in Dutch, and Gott in modern German), which is thought to derive from Proto-Germanic ǥuđán."

"Depending on which possibility is preferred, the pre-Christian meaning of the Germanic term may either have been (in the "pouring" case) "libation" or "that which is libated upon, idol" — or, as Watkins opines in the light of Greek χυτη γαια "poured earth" meaning "tumulus", "the Germanic form may have referred in the first instance to the spirit immanent in a burial mound" — or (in the "invoke" case) "invocation, prayer" (compare the meanings of Sanskrit brahman) or "that which is invoked"."

I like this, so why are the Christians using this name as a Deity when there is no such root meaning?

It matters very much! You Christians have replaced the Name of the Deity of Abraham, Yast'qahk & Ya'acub with this sound/name and created a deity for yourselves using the writings of the Chosen people of Yahuah (יהוה). And further created a religion with false hopes and lies that needed to be cleared up. The plans of Yahuah are very clear.

It may have escaped your notice, but a look at my info shows that I am not a Christian.

It doesn't matter. Its to anyone who has insight to where this name/sound comes from in its original intent. Because in the history of Yisra'el there is no such Deity that came from the relationship of Abraham, Yats'qakh & Ya'aqub, except when the House of Yahudah allowed a foreign Deity name/sound Gahd of the Assyrians in their lifestyle.

The word "god" is used by people other than Christians. Perhaps you should have specified "Abrahamic God"

"God" is just the singular generic term for a deity. It's not the result of some paranoid conspiracy. No one alive knows how to pronounce the Tetragrammaton. It's been lost to history.

Jehovah is God.

Yeah, I know you do. That's not how to pronounce the Tetragrammaton either, though. It takes JHVH and adds the vowels of Adonai to create a hybrid of the two. It came about in the Middle Ages. Yahweh is our best guess in English as to what it would've sounded like.

Yahweh,Yehowah,Jehovah,it's all the same.

God's name is Jehovah .Its Yahweh in Hebrew.Jehovah in english.His name means "He causes to become." Jesus means "Jehovah is Salvation." Elijah means,"Jehovah is my God."

Hallelujah means,"Praise to Jehovah." Jehovah-Nissi (Hebrew: יְהוָה נִסִּי) means Jehovah will provide.This is the name given by Moses to the altar which he built to celebrate the defeat of the Amalekites at Rephidim.In the book of Exodus.Jehovah jirah means,"Jehovah is my signal pole." "And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen." – Genesis 22:14 (KJV)

There was no J then so it was a Y instead of a J.

I'm just saying that Jehovah is a more modern creation and was not the original way of pronouncing it.

The word 'God' is a title, right? Like 'president'. It's not a personal name such as 'Yahweh' or 'Jehovah', the God of the bible.

I'm right? Yes?

Probably because it takes too long to say "He who causes to become"
