WHO IS YEHUWAH
The Name Above Every Name
1. Yehuwah Is the Most High, and He Has a Personal Name
From the beginning of creation, the Maker of Heaven and Earth revealed Himself not only through His works but also through His Name. Unlike the false deities of the nations, who carry titles without substance, or names tied to destruction, war, or fertility, the Maker has a personal Name that sets Him apart.
This Name is not a title like Lord or God (both words rooted in pagan language and idol worship). It is not an abstract sound. It is His identity: Yehuwah.
Scripture confirms repeatedly that His Name is central to covenant relationship:
“This is My Name forever, and this is My memorial unto all generations.” (Exit “Exodus” 3:15)
“I am Yehuwah, that is My Name; and My glory will I not give to another, neither My praise to graven images.” (Yeshahyehu “Isaiah” 42:8)
“Everyone who calls on the Name of Yehuwah shall be saved.” (Yehuale “Joel” 2:32)
His Name is not a side note. It is the cornerstone of our faith, worship, and identity.
2. How the Name Was Erased, Hidden, and Masked
2.1 The Claim of “Protecting” the Name
For centuries, we were told that the Maker’s Name was too “sacred” to pronounce. Scribes and teachers began substituting titles like Adonai or HaShem in place of the Name. Later translators replaced the Name with “the LORD” in nearly every English Bible.
The reason given? To “protect” the Name from being taken in vain.
But what did Yehuwah Himself command?
“You shall not take the Name of Yehuwah your Alewah in vain.” (Exit “Exodus” 20:7)
This command was twisted. Instead of protecting His Name, they removed it from our lips, making it vain—empty, nothing. To make something vain is to strip it of its meaning and power. They did exactly what we were commanded not to, and used that very command as an inverted justification.
2.2 Blasphemy by Replacement
True blasphemy is not speaking His Name with reverence. True blasphemy is calling Him by a name not His own.
Substituting Yehuwah with “Yehovah” — a word that actually carries the meaning “destruction.”
Claiming “Yahweh” or “Jehovah” are the true Name, when these are corruptions rooted in idol worship and false linguistic traditions.
Using wicked titles like God (which derives from “Gad,” a deity of fortune) or Lord (from Ba’al, another pagan idol).
By doing this, the nations committed the very blasphemy they claimed to avoid: they gave the Most High the names of idols and names of destruction.
2.3 Why Intentionally Hide the Name? Why Would Yehuwah Allow It? Why Isn’t It Mainstream?
If Yehuwah’s Name is so central to covenant and salvation, why would anyone hide it? The answer is both simple and sobering: power.
By removing His Name, religious systems could insert themselves as mediators, claiming authority to decide how people address the Most High. Once the true Name was covered, generic titles like Lord and God allowed people to unknowingly direct worship toward idols with those very same names. This shift gave priests, kings, translators, and later churches control over how the Creator was known and spoken of. To strip away His Name was to strip away His identity — leaving room for falsehood, control, and confusion.
The Name was hidden not for Yehuwah’s reverence, but to redirect devotion away from Him.
Why Would Yehuwah Allow It?
At first, this may seem impossible — why would the Author of Life allow His Name to be obscured? Yet Yehuwah’s ways are consistent with how He has always tested and refined His people.
Free Will and Testing: Yehuwah gave humanity free will, not forced obedience. Hiding His Name created a dividing line — who would cling to tradition and convenience, and who would seek out truth?
The Remnant Pattern: Throughout Scripture, truth is never kept by the majority. Noah, Abraham, Moses, the prophets, even the disciples — all were a remnant minority holding to Yehuwah’s commands when the world followed corruption. Allowing the Name to be hidden ensures that only those who earnestly seek Him will find Him.
The Prophetic Reveal: Yehuwah promised that in the last days His Name would be restored to His people. What looks like loss was part of His plan to magnify the moment of return.
So the question isn’t “Why was it hidden?” — but “Will we be among the few who return when He restores it?”
Why Is It Not Mainstream Accepted?
If Yehuwah’s Name is true, why do most churches, assemblies, and mainstream religions reject it?
Fear of Being Wrong: Many cling to tradition out of fear. To admit the Name is Yehuwah would mean confessing that centuries of leaders, translations, and teachings were corrupted. Fear drives people to stay “safe” in the comfort of tradition, even when truth stares them in the face.
The “Greek” Substitution: Religion tells us it’s normal that a Hebrew child would bear a Greek name like “Jesus.” But step back: does that make sense? Would any Hebrew family in covenant with Yehuwah abandon their language, identity, and heritage to name their son after foreign tongues? The leap of logic is staggering — yet people accept it unquestioningly because it is mainstream.
The Narrow Path: Yehuwah Himself said few will find the way of life (Matanyehu “Matthew” 7:14). If the Name were mainstream, it would not be the narrow path. Widespread acceptance is not proof of truth — in fact, Scripture testifies the opposite.
The Enemy’s Logic
If the Name saves, remove the Name.
If the Name gives life, replace it with one meaning destruction.
If the Name separates Yehuwah from idols, blur it into generic titles so no distinction remains.
This is why Scripture commands:
“Do not profane My set apart Name, but I will be hallowed among the children of Yehusharale. I am Yehuwah who sanctifies you.” (Laws “Leviticus” 22:32)
3. The Ancient Witness
3.1 The Four Letters: YHWH
(Y- modern day called Yod) → Hand, work, deed.
(H- modern day called Hey) → Breath, revelation, behold.
(W- modern day called Waw) → Nail, hook, secure, establish.
(H- modern day called Hey) → Breath, revelation again.
The meaning of the letters: “The Hand reveals, the Nail secures, the Breath reveals.” This is covenant, creation, and life itself.
3.2 Why the “W” Matters
For centuries, scholars argued that the letter “W” was a “V” sound, not a true “W.” But ancient languages confirm that “W” carried the sound of “uw” or “waw.”
To change “waw” to “vav” was not preservation. It was distortion.
“Yehuwah” means Life, Existence, Breath.
“Yehovah” means Destruction, Ruin.
This was not a small error. It was an intentional replacement: from the Alewah of Life to a name of destruction.
4. The Breath of Life
When Yehuwah formed man, He breathed into him:
“And Yehuwah formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.” (Beginning “Genesis” 2:7)
That breath is His Name. Every inhale and exhale testifies:
Yeh (inhale)
Who (exhale)
Ah (release)
Every living creature declares His Name with every breath. This is why David wrote:
“Let everything that has breath praise Yehuwah.” (Songs “Psalm” 150:6)
When our breath ceases, our life ends. When we breathe, we proclaim Yehuwah, even if we do not realize it. His Name is quite literally our existence.
5. Huwah vs. Hovah
Language reveals the truth that was hidden:
Huwah = Life, Being, Existence.
Hovah = Destruction, Ruin, Misfortune.
Which one describes the Maker? The One who is the Author of Life, or the one who brings ruin?
The deception is plain: they took Huwah (Life) and twisted it into Hovah (Destruction).
Even Eve’s true name, Hawah, means mother of the living. It is the same root as Huwah. This connects back to Yehuwah as the One who gives and sustains life.
6. His Name Preserved in Scripture
Though masked in translations, His Name is found nearly 7,000 times in the Scriptures, recorded as YHWH.
Examples:
Exit “Exodus” 6:3 — “By My Name Yehuwah I was not known to them.”
Exit “Exodus” 33:19 — “I will proclaim the Name of Yehuwah before you.”
Commands “Deuteronomy” 28:58 — “If you do not carefully observe all the words of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and awesome Name, Yehuwah your Alewah…”
Songs “Psalm” 113:3 — “From the rising of the great light to its going down, Yehuwah’s Name is to be praised.”
7. Commands to Use His Name
Yehuwah did not say, “Hide My Name.” He said:
“Call upon the Name of Yehuwah.” (Beginning “Genesis” 4:26)
“Blessed is he who comes in the Name of Yehuwah.” (Songs “Psalm” 118:26)
“Give thanks to Yehuwah, call upon His Name.” (Yeshahyehu “Isaiah” 12:4)
“Our help is in the Name of Yehuwah, who made heaven and earth.” (Songs “Psalm” 124:8)
“Everyone who calls on the Name of Yehuwah shall be saved.” (Yehuale “Joel” 2:32)
The remnant is instructed to proclaim, honor, and call on His true Name. To replace it with titles or false names is nothing short of disobedience.
8. Yehuwah in Creation
His Name is not only in Scripture but in creation itself:
In our breath (as shown above).
In the ocean waves, rising and falling with the same rhythm.
In the cry of a newborn.
In every cycle of life, sound, and existence.
Creation testifies. It cannot be erased. Literature can be altered, scribes can corrupt, but creation itself witnesses Yehuwah.
9. Why the Name Matters Today
We live in a world of confusion, deception, and false worship. Many claim the Maker is nameless, or that “He knows who I mean, whatever I call Him.” But Yehuwah said otherwise. He never, ever once said to just call Him anything because He knows your heart. That is a deception of the enemy.
He tied covenant blessings to His Name.
He warned against profaning His Name.
He promised salvation to those who call upon His Name.
To reject His Name is to reject His command. To accept false names is to embrace deception.
This is not about “semantics” or “pronunciation.” It is about covenant, obedience, and truth.
10. Call to the Remnant
The time has come for the remnant to rise and return to the Name of Yehuwah.
Exit “Exodus” 9:16 — “But indeed for this purpose I have raised you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My Name may be declared in all the earth.”
Malaki “Malachi” 3:16 — “Then those who feared Yehuwah spoke to one another, and Yehuwah listened and heard them; so a book of remembrance was written before Him for those who fear Yehuwah and who meditate on His Name.”
Aleazar “John” 17:6 — “I have manifested Your Name to the men whom You have given Me out of the world.”
The Savior Himself declared and restored the Father’s Name. Will we do any less?
11. What Yehuwah Means
Breaking it down:
Yehu = He is.
Huwah = Life, Existence, Breath.
Together: Yehuwah = He Is the Life-Giver, the Eternal One, the Breath of Existence.
He is not “a god.” He is not “the LORD.” He is not “Jehovah.”
He is Yehuwah — Author of Life.
12. Final Call to Action
It is time for the remnant to rise. To strip away the titles, the masks, the false names of destruction. To speak the Name of life with boldness. To obey His instruction:
“Proclaim My Name.”
“Bless My Name.”
“Call on My Name.”
“Do not profane My Name.”
His Name is Yehuwah. It has always been Yehuwah. It will always be Yehuwah.
Call to the Remnant
We are commanded not to hide His Name, but to proclaim it. Yehuwah is written on every breath you take. It is time to walk in truth, call on His true Name, and declare it boldly to the nations.
The greatest question you can ever ask is this: Who is Yehuwah? Now that you’ve asked—and the truth has been revealed—the only question that remains is: What will you do with this truth?
Let everything that has breath praise Yehuwah!
Let the remnant call upon His true Name.
