Default Re: Tradition Trumps Truth: Jehovah - The Recovery's Misnomer - Tomes

Hi V.I.W., good to hear from you. Don't make yourself so scarce my brother!

You bring up some interesting linguistic twists, but other than citing "the software I use", you don't cite your scholarly/authoritative sources. I say this assuming you're not a Hebrew scholar in your own right.

Quote:
I do not see how these scholars can say that the Name was almost definitely pronounced Yahweh. I think Jehovah is a better guess than Yahweh.
Well Nigel spent many hours to produce a paper of dozens upon dozens of paragraphs with 110 footnotes explaining his position, and why he thinks these scholars can say that the Name was almost definitely pronounced Yahweh, so you're going to have to do a little more to convince us that his position is faulty. Again, please cite your sources when you get a chance.

As far as Jehovah being a better guess than Yahweh, well I think we would all agree that these scholars' "educated guess" is light-years ahead of Witness Lee's uneducated guess. Of course Lee wasn't the only lay person to make this crucial error, but maybe only just one of the latest.
