Re: Tradition Trumps Truth: Jehovah - The Recovery's Misnomer - Tomes
Quote:
Why Did Witness Lee use “Jehovah”?
Why did W. Lee use “Jehovah” in his Recovery Version Bible and his teaching? He never addressed this issue. His writings show no familiarity with the Hebrew terms—YHWH and Yahweh; these key terms never appear in LSM’s vast array of W. Nee’s and W. Lee’s writings.

To me, the answer here is easy -- because the 2 prior MOTA's (Darby and Nee) had already " recovered" the use of Jehovah. As a side benefit, the fact that most other contemporary translations used "THE LORD" reinforced the exclusive viewpoint that governed so many of his other decisions.
