Comparing Hebrew and Greek Names 

 

    The 1611 King James Version was preserved by the Creator to  reveal the language controversy, concerning His very own name!    The New Age Bible Versions cover up the controversy !


 

      What's wrong with this statement ? "Several early Greek writers of the Christian

Church testify that the name was pronounced Yahweh." The Modern Judaica Eccly Vol 7, p 679

      (YHWH ) is a Hebrew name !
