Best Answer

God's personal name, which occurs over 6,000 times in the Old Testament alone, is spelled with the 4 letters YHVH.

While many sacred name groups and web sites claim to know how to vocalize this name, it's true vocalization was lost with the destruction of the Temple in 70 AD.

Jehovah has been recognized by scholars as a mistaken reading and Yahweh is only a guess.

AnswerFrom the very earliest times of the Hebrew kingdoms of Israel and Judah, it appears that the people of Israel referred to their supreme God as "Elohom", which simply means "God" (ignoring the plural form), while the people of Judah called their supreme God by the name "Yahweh" (YHWH).

Monotheistic Judaism, as we know it, developed in Judah after the fall of Israel to the Assyrians, but assimilated much of the traditions and beliefs of the northern kingdom. So, from very early times, God was always known just as God. Some Christians use the personal name, Jehovah, a transliteration of the German translation of 'Yahweh'.
