Vatican Denies The Name Yahweh

REV. 3:8
I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man
can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast
not denied my name.

Jer. 23:26-27
26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies?
yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;
27 Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams
which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers have forgotten
my name for Baal (lord).

VATICAN: Holy See Stops Use of 'Yahweh' in all Catholic Worship
Written By:CISA , Posted: Mon, Aug 18, 2008

VATICAN, August 15, 2008 (CISA) -The Vatican has ruled that the word Yahweh must not "be used or pronounced" in songs and prayers during Catholic masses.

The decree is contained in a letter to bishops from the Vatican Congregation for Divine Worship and the Sacraments dated June 29 and addressed to episcopal conferences around the world.

The Tetragrammaton is YHWH, the four consonants of the ancient Hebrew name for God.

"As an expression of the infinite greatness and majesty of God, it was held to be unpronounceable and hence was replaced during the reading of sacred Scripture by means of the use of an alternate name: 'Adonai,' which means 'Lord,'" the Vatican letter said. Similarly, Greek translations of the Bible used the word "Kyrios" and Latin scholars translated it to "Dominus"; both also mean Lord.

….the letter said. "The practice of vocalizing it is met with both in the reading of biblical texts taken from the Lectionary as well as in prayers and hymns, and it occurs in diverse written and spoken forms," including Yahweh, Jahweh and Yehovah.

Vatican Says “Yahweh” Not to Be Pronounced
August 19, 2008 |

A note from the Vatican has reiterated a directive that the name of God revealed in the tetragrammaton YHWH is not to be pronounced in Catholic liturgy.

It explained: “The venerable biblical tradition of sacred Scripture, known as the Old Testament, displays a series of divine appellations, among which is the sacred name of God revealed in a tetragrammaton YHWH — hwhw. As an expression of the infinite greatness and majesty of God, it was held to be unpronounceable and hence was replaced during the reading of sacred Scripture by means of the use of an alternate name: ‘Adonai,’ which means ‘Lord.’

• The Pope continues to come against all manner of holiness, just as your Bible has shown he would. The history of the force that the Holy Roman Empire has used to attack all people that have practiced living by the words of the Bible is a long and bloody history. The pope is continuing to exert this force today on all nations. Including, but not limited to, the banning of the use of the Name, YAHWEH.
