Yahweh is the Hebrew name for God (the equivalent of Allah for Islam or, well, God for Christians). The people of Israel are very different. They are penguins. ( In answer to the statement above) You have a name, right. God is a title. Yahweh is God's name in Hebrew. In English it's pronouced : JEHOVAH. Like it or not, that's his name. I explained it all in my origianal post, but you couldn't stand it that the truth is his name. Allah does mean God, in Islam, but what is his name in Islam ? Are you male or female. At ant rate are you addressed as this " This is boy or This is girl". Either one of these are titles.....you have a name and so does the creator..Yahweh, or Jehovah; is his.

∙ 10y agoThere are three covenants. Two which God made with Abraham (Genesis ch.15 and Genesis ch.17), and one with Abraham's Israelite descendants in the time of Moses after the Exodus.
1) In Genesis ch.15, the Covenant Between the Parts:
a) God informs Abraham of future events (the Egyptian exile)
b) God promises the land of Canaan (Israel) to Abraham's descendants
c) The covenant is finalized through a demonstration of God's presence (see Genesis 15:7-9 and 15:17).
2) In Genesis ch.17, the covenant of circumcision:
a) The promises of many descendants (17:2,3) and of inheriting the land of Canaan are repeated (17:8), but the main thing in this covenant is the promise that God will be the God of Abraham (17:7, 17:8).
b) God promises that Abraham and Sarah will have a son (17:15-16), whom they will name Isaac (17:19) and who will be the continuation of God's covenant with Abraham (17:21).
c) The covenant itself is manifested through circumcision, for Abraham and his descendants (17:10).
3) The covenant between God and the Israelite nation (see Exodus ch.19 and ch.24), was made in the time of Moses, with Moses serving as the messenger.
This covenant is one of obedience, to listen to God's voice (Exodus 19:5), which will include the entire Torah (24:12). God, for His part, promised to treasure the Israelites (Exodus 19:5; and see also Deuteronomy 26:16-19). The covenant was manifested through God's giving the Ten Commandments (Exodus ch.19-20), and was finalized (on our part) through the sacrifices described in Exodus ch.24.

Who are the characters in the book of Hosea?
The main characters in the book of Hosea are Hosea, Gomer (his wife), and their children. Hosea is a prophet who is commanded by God to marry Gomer, a prostitute, as a symbolic representation of God's relationship with Israel. Their tumultuous relationship serves as an allegory for the unfaithfulness of Israel towards God.
How would Jesus restore your relationship with god?
The Bible says everybody is born spiritually dead. Another way of saying this is people don't have a relationship with/know God. This is because the first man and woman did not obey God and so their relationship with God - the creator and sustainer of life - was broken. This is sin. Throughout the history of mankind - as told in the Bible - the way for a person to restore their relationship with God is to acknowledge their relationship with God is broken and to offer a sacrifice. In the early history of mankind this is what people did. God chose the nation of Israel to be His representatives on earth. Israel was supposed to show the other nations what a relationship with God is like. But Israel turned from God and His ways and followed other gods. So God came to earth as a man - Jesus - and died as the 'lamb of God', a sacrifice for the sin of all who believe. If a person believes this, the Bible says God forgives the person and that person's relationship with God is restored. Also the believer has the gift of eternal life.
What was the covenant between the Isralites and Moses?
I think the covenant was between Israel and God. When the children of Israel arrived at Sinai that was the beginning of the nation of Israel. God had set them apart from other nations and He asked for their obedience...... "if you will obey.......the you will be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine". (Exodus 19:5-8). "And all the people answered All that the LORD has spoken we will do."
