'''Tetragrammaton''' is the word referring to the four-letter unspeakable name of the Creator. In [[Hebrew]] it is rendered  יהוה , the English equivalent for which is YHVH. This is the origin of such English words as "[[Jehovah]]". [[Judaism|Jews]] believe the name to be unspeakable until the arrival of Moshiach (the [[Messiah]]) and the restoration of the [[Temple of Jerusalem|Temple]] in [[Jerusalem]].

}}The '''tetragrammaton''' is a sequence of four Hebrew consonants that refers to the unspeakable name of the Creator. In English, it is often given as YHVH. Both "[[Jehovah]]" and "[[Yahweh]]" represent attempts to vocalize this sequence. [[Judaism|Jews]] believe that the Lord's true name is unspeakable until the arrival of the [[messiah]] and the restoration of the [[Temple of Jerusalem|Temple]] in [[Jerusalem]].
