The Qodesh Name of Our Creator
Our Creator’s Name in Full Writing is // . (Ancient Hebrew Writing),(Paleo Hebrew Writing), and (Modern Hebrew Writing) are different writings of the Name of our Creator. In English, it is transliterated to YHWH or YHVH, which means “to be”, “exist”, “become”, and “come to pass”. The four letters of the Qodesh Name of our Creator in written form from right to left means “Hand Behold/Reveal, Nail Behold/Reveal. (Reference source: messengerofthename.com) (Note: Hebrew reads and writes from right to left) It has been pronounced by many people as “Yahuah”, “Yahuwah”, “Yahuweh”, “Yehovah”, “Jehovah”, or “Yahweh”. The Short Version of our Creator’s Name is (Ancient Hebrew Writing)/ (Paleo Hebrew Writing), (Modern Hebrew Writing) and it is pronounced as “Yah”. The praise word “Hallelujah” which is in the Book of Psalms and the Book of Revelation of the Bible, often heard in churches and worship songs, is the pronunciation of the Hebrew Word / , which means “Praise You / / (Yah). / / (Yah) is the short version of the Name of our Elohim, the Most High / . Therefore, when we say “HalleluYah”, we are praising our Creator Elohim!
/ / is the short version of the Name of / / , the One and Only Creator! The Good News is that this form of transliteration of the Name of our Creator is still in many modern translations of the Bible such as KJV, NKJV, etc. For example, you can find this pronunciation of the Name of our Creator in Psalm 68:4b; Isaiah 12:2b; Isaiah 26:4; Isaiah 38:11; Psalm 102, 117, 138, 148, 150, Rev.19:1, 3, 4, 6 and some other places in the New King James Version of the Bible. (It is pronounced as “Yah”.)
(This is the Ancient Hebrew Version of the Name of Our Creator Elohim.)
(This is a written form of the Name of Our Creator Elohim in Paleo Hebrew which was found in dead sea scroll writings and on a lot of archaeological findings. In English, it is referred to as ’The Tetragrammaton’ – The Four Letters – YHWH or YHVH. It has been pronounced as “Yahuah”, “Yahuwah”, “Yahoweh”, “Yahuweh”, “Yahveh”, “Jehovah”, and “Yahweh”, etc. Elohim has placed His Name in the Scriptures over 6800 times, but unfortunately, the majority of Bible translators have replaced it with the title “THE LORD”)
(This is the written form of the Name of Elohim in Modern Hebrew. Modern Hebrew is used today in Israel and also in Hebrew Bibles and books.)
(This is the short version of the Name of Elohim in Ancient Hebrew, and it is pronounced as “Yah”. Therefore, when we say “HalleluYah”, we praise our Elohim / / (Yah).
(This is the short version of the Name of Elohim in Paleo Hebrew, and it is pronounced as “Yah”. Therefore, when we say “HalleluYah”, we praise our Elohim / / (Yah).
(This is the short version of the Name of Elohim in Modern Hebrew, and it is pronounced as “Yah”, so, when we say “HalleluYah”, we praise our Elohim / / (Yah). This version of the Name of Elohim can be found in all the Messianic Scriptures. Therefore, when you read the word “HalleluYah” in Hebrew, you can find out that the Name of our Creator Elohim is in it. Many Jewish believers argue that they didn’t know how to pronounce the Name of Elohim, so they don’t pronounce it. But I believe that they do know how to pronounce His Name in the Short version, which is / / , and it is pronounced as “Yah” and they do say and sing “HalleluYah” in their praise. I also believe that we should strive to know how to pronounce the Creator’s Name for it’s so important for Elohim and us. Do you remember that Elohim has emphasized the importance of His Name in the Scriptures so many times? In Isaiah 52:6, Elohim said that His people should know His Name. Therefore, I believe Elohim will reveal the pronunciation to those who sincerely and diligently seek Him.)

Our Creator and His Son’s Names Have Meanings. Name Also Tells Identity.
// , the Qodesh Name of our Creator indicates who our Creator is and it defines the very essence, the very nature, and the very character of Our Creator, the Most High, our Elohim!
, our Elohim and Creator, is Self-Existent! He is the Self-Existent One, the Omnipotent One, who made everything come into being! He created all things and upholds them by His eternal power! He is the Creator, Sustainer, and Finisher of all things. He is the Great “I AM”; He is “the First and the Last, the Aleph and the Tav, the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End”, the “who is and who was and who is to come, El Shaddai”; He is the only True Elohim, the Most High, the Forever Living Elohim, the Everlasting Father, the King of kings, the Master of all! He has Always Existed and He will Forever Exist; He is Everlasting and His Name is Everlasting! His Name alone is exalted! In the Scriptures, Elohim emphasized many times that His people should know His Name. I saw the Name of Elohim written in the night sky and amid the beautiful grass in the grassland in my dream and heard the Name of our Creator was pronounced in my dream and Elohim Himself came to rescue me and rebuke Satan for me! I’m truly blessed!

This is My Name forever, and this is My remembrance to all generations.’”(Shemoth/Exodus 3:13-15, HS)

The Qodesh Name of the Messiah
The Name of the Messiah, the Son of our Creator, our Savior is // / / .
(Ancient Hebrew Writing)/ (Paleo Hebrew Writing)/ (Modern Hebrew Full Writing), (Modern Hebrew Defective Writing) (These versions of writings are pronounced by many as “Yahushua”, “Yehoshua” “Jehoshua” “Y’shua, “Yeshua””Joshua””Jeshua” “Jesus”)/ (Short Version Modern Hebrew Writing) (Pronounced by many as “Y’shua, “Yeshua” “Yeshu”)
(Full Writing of the Name of Messiah in Ancient Hebrew)
(Full Writing of the Name of Messiah in Paleo Hebrew, and it has been pronounced by many as “Yahushua”, and you can find more about that from the research given by a brother whose website is https://www.messengerofthename.com)
(Full Writing of the Name of Messiah in Modern Hebrew which was in the dead sea scroll writings)
(This is the Defective Writing of the Name of Messiah in Modern Hebrew, and you can find this writing in the translation of The Scriptures, ISR)
(Shortened Version /Contraction of the Name of Messiah in Modern Hebrew, you can find this writing in 1 Chronicle 24:11, 2 Chronicles 31:15, Zechariah 3:3, Ezra 3:2, Nehemiah and in many Messianic New Testament/Covenant Scripture verses where the Messiah’s Name was written and it is pronounced as “Yeshua” or “Y’shua”. For example, you can find this in the translation of “The New Covenant Aramaic Peshitta Text with Hebrew Translation”.)
I believe no matter whether it is full writing or defective writing, the pronunciation should be the SAME. You may need to research Hebrew grammar related to defective writing. Again you can find more detailed research at https://www.messengerofthename.com.
Messiah // / / ’s Name Shows His Identity. The meaning of the Name of the Messiah is” // Saves”, or // is salvation”. Therefore, whenever we call upon the Name of Messiah, we call Elohim // . Anyone who can read can see that just from the writings of the Names. Therefore, esteeming the Messiah’s Name is esteeming // Elohim, our Creator’s Name.
“And she shall give birth to a Son, and you shall call His Name for He shall save His people from their sins.” (Mattithyahu/Matthew 1:21, The Scriptures, ISR)

The Pronunciation of the Name of our Creator, // , our Elohim
If you check the web, you will find out there are many disagreements and many controversies. Some say no one knows the pronunciation of the Name of Elohim, so they don’t pronounce it and they call Him Adonai/Master or Ha Shem/the Name. Some pronounce it as “Yahuah or Yahuwah” and some pronounce it as “Yahweh”, Yahuweh, Yehoweh, Jehovah, etc. Since there is no recording passed on to us from the biblical times when Elohim’s people knew how to pronounce His Qodesh Name, I believe this is up to individual research and belief. According to my personal research, and revelations, I choose the pronunciation of “Yahuah“, “Yahuwah“. This conclusion was based on my 3-year prayers and research and a final revelation I received through a dream I had in Sept. 2017, in which I heard Elohim rebuke Satan for me saying, “Satan, Yahuah/Yahuwah rebukes you.” He delivered me from the attacks of Satan by speaking these words. I was so happy and felt so loved by Him as always. The detailed dream will be on the page of my dream revelations page. Therefore, I prefer to pronounce the Name of our Creator our Elohim as “Yahuah/Yahuwah”. Please know that these are all PRONUNCIATIONS, and they are NOT the SPELLINGS of the Name.
The Pronunciation of the Name of the Messiah, our Master, and Savior // / /
Some pronounce the Name of the Messiah as “Yahushua” (Some say “h” is pronounced, while others say “h” is not pronounced); some pronounce it as “Yahusha” (This pronunciation got me confused for a long time until I do research regarding Hebrew Defective writing pronunciation then I found out this is not the correct pronunciation. I also really thank this following website for giving me a thorough understanding of how to pronounce the Messiah’s Name and it especially uses Hebrew Grammar to prove that the defective writing form of the Messiah’s Name should not change its pronunciation from the original pronunciation Yahushua/Yahuwshuwa. Please visit https://www.messengerofthename.com for more detailed information.) and some pronounce it as “Yahshua” or “Y’shua” or “Yeshua” (This pronunciation is very popular with the Messianic Jewish believers); while the majority of Christians pronounce it as “Jesus”.
There are many controversies out there regarding how to pronounce our Creator’s Name and the Messiah’s Name. Please do your own research prayerfully. Based on my research and prayer, and my knowledge of Hebrew, personal revelation from Elohim, I believe, regardless of its full writing or defective writing, the pronunciation of the Name of the Messiah is the same. I believe the pronunciation of the Name of Our Creator Elohim is “Yahuah/Yahuwah” and the pronunciation of the Name of the Messiah Our Master is “Yahushua or Y’shua”
Attention: A lot of people believe that the Qodesh Names they pronounced were the writings of the name. Therefore, they paid so much attention to how to write it down, regarding if it is V or W, or with h or without h. I believe they might have forgotten the fact that all these are just their believed pronunciation/transliterations of the Sacred Name of our Creator and the Messiah, and they are not the writings of the Names in their original Hebrew forms. I believe that the true writings/spellings of the Name of Elohim the Father our Creator and the Name of Messiah our Master are in the Hebrew fonts (ancient Hebrew – pictograph, paleo, or Modern Hebrew font). But I also accept the Latin Form “YHWH’ as the spelling of the Name of Elohim, which also appeared in my dream before I even knew the correct writing of the Name of our Creator.
Note: Pronunciations are not actual spellings. I have seen so many believers in Messiah argue and debate online about the true Name of Elohim our Creator and the Messiah, I realized that they were actually arguing about the PRONUNCIATIONS OF THE NAMES, unfortunately, many of them took the pronunciations as the written forms so they argued so much about that, which had confused me for a long time (2 years long) until one day after 3-year research and prayer that I received the revelation which helped me to realize that their confusions were caused by the fact that they took the pronunciations of the Names of our Elohim and the Messiah as the actual writings of the Qodesh Names. If anyone had got this confusion like what I got, please know that pronunciations of the Sacred Names are not the actual writings of the Names!

Note: No matter what websites or videos/articles I recommended, I do not endorse everything in their contents, so, please do your own research, following the guidance of the Ruach ha’Qodesh/Holy Spirit and the guidance of the Living Word is my recommended approach. “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” (John 8:32, NKJV) We have His Ruach ha’Qodesh/His Holy Spirit in us, so Elohim will reveal the truth to us, if we diligently seek the truth. (Yochana/John 16:13-15)
The Importance of Proclaiming the True Names of Our Creator and Savior:
- Finally, let the Word speaks itself from the following Scripture translations to help you decide if it matters to esteem the True Name of Elohim and the True Name of the Messiah.
Psalm 148:13 “Let them praise the name of the Lord, For His name alone is exalted; His glory is above the earth and heaven.” (New King James Version, NKJV)
Psalm 148:13 “Let them praise the Name of , For His Name alone is exalted, His splendour is above the earth and shamayim.” (Halleluyah Scriptures, HS)
Micah 4:5 “All the nations may walk in the name of their gods, but we will walk in the name of the Lord our God forever and ever.” (New International Version, NIV)
Micah 4:5 “For all the peoples walk, each one in the name of his mighty one, but we walk in the Name of our Elohim forever and ever.” (Halleluyah Scriptures, HS)
Now, let’s see the contrast between the translations listed above, please pay attention to the difference between the translations with His Name kept as it is in its original form and that with His Name Hidden. Then please decide for yourself what is our Elohim and Creator’s desire for you. Does He desire you to worship Him with His Name hidden or be exalted? Is the LORD a name? Does our Creator desire you only worship Him in spirit or in spirit and truth?
I think the answer is obvious as it is written in John 4:23, “But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father also does seek such to worship Him.” (John 4:23, The Scriptures, ISR)
Now, I will end this post with the following Scripture Verses:

“For I say to you, from now on you shall by no means see Me, until you say, ‘Baruk is He who is coming in the Name of ! ‘” (Mattithyahu/Matthew 23:39, HS)
“ is righteous in all His ways, and kind in all His works. is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth. He does the desire of those who revere Him; And He hears their cry and saves them. preserves all those loving Him, But all the wicked He destroys.
