The Hebrew Tetragammaton or

יהוה appeared over 7,000 times in the original Hebrew text as the name of God. Jehovah is the most acceptable English translation of the tetragammaton. Why has it been taken out by new bible versions? Maybe you can ask the writers themselves because there appears to be no concrete reason.

In the original bible does the name Jesus appear?

yes The answer actually is no. The bible of the original Hebrew text in Aramaic did not ever have the name jasus in it. As a matter of fact j did not even exist in any language until around the 1400's. The true and only name of your King and Savior is YHWH. Which is what you will see in the original text. Worshipping the name Jesus is blasphemy and the bible tells to not change his name and to not call him by any other name.


What is the name of the original Bible?

The Bible was not written at one time. Parts of the Bible such as the Pentateuch were composed and referenced in later books such as Ruth and Psalms which were in turn referenced in later books like the Gospels. There is no "original Bible". The Bible officially sanctioned by the Catholic Church was the Latin Vulgate, which may be what you are referring to, but it was not the first incarnation of the Bible. Note: Bible means "Book".
