'''Yahweh''' is an Anglicized version of the Name of [[God]], as spoken during the time of the [[Temple of Jerusalem|Temple]] and understood by [[Judaism]] and [[Christianity]] as taught in the [[Old Testament]] or the [[Bible]]. In the [[Hebrew]] written language, which often uses no written vowels, The Name is written ''[[Tetragrammaton|YHWH]]'', but never spoken.

'''Yahweh''' is an Anglicized version of the Name of [[God]], as spoken during the time of the [[Temple of Jerusalem|Temple]] and understood by [[Judaism]] and [[Christianity]] as taught in the [[Old Testament]] or the [[Bible]]. In the [[Hebrew]] written language, which often uses no written vowels, The Name is written using four consonants called the [[tetragrammaton]], but never spoken.

However, because [[Jew]]s generally were forbidden by the [[Ten Commandments|Third Commandment]] to pronounce the sacred name, the vowels of ''Adonai'' (literally 'my lords') were normally inserted between its consonants, resulting in the name '[[Jehovah]]'. Reflecting the same taboo, the earlier English translations of the [[Bible]] replaced the name with the phrase 'the LORD'. Because [[Jesus]]' followers routinely called him ''adon'' ('boss', 'lord', which translated into the [[gospel]]s' [[Greek language|Greek]] as ''kurios''), the two titles became confused in English, to the point where it became unclear whether the phrase 'the LORD' was referring to Jesus or to Yahweh.
