THE DIVINE NAME.
IneFnble Word That Is Never Used
by Many I%sraeIttes.

An eminent rabbi has given his view
name of the Deity. He says that the
term Jehovah" the ineffable terra
grammaton. is never pronounced by
many Israelites. They use the word
"Adonoi." which signifies "the Lord"
The tra~nslators of the Bible followed
this custom. rendering the word "Jeho-
vah' as Lord" in ancient times the
Pharisees replaced the tetrs gramma-
ton by Shem. They used "Shemo,"
which il also Biblical, as the sacred
name, and this name IS yet retained
to some extent smong the Jews. But
It would appear from passages in the
Psalms that Adonoi. or Lord, for Jeho-
yah was more ancient even than the
times Of the Pharisees. 1t thus occurs
eig'l- tiles in Psalm lxxxiv. 1t also
appears IN the book Of Exodus. where
Jehovah" had been used In the orig
innl Hebrew. This substitution would
seem to be older han any other, and
it IS yet common among ali Jews.
The rabbi says he has found that the
ancient TRANSACTIONS testify in favor Of
"Adonoi."
Looking at the English translation Of
the Old Testament. it will be found
that the name Jehovah appears in the
books OF Genesis. Exodus. Judges, the
Psalms and Isaiah. 1t is not in the
New Testament.
