Where is Jehovah mentioned in the bible?

Answer 1

Of course he did not use the English translation, Jehovah, of the Divine Name, יהוה, but pronounced it in the Hebrew language. He was not like those superstitious Jews who would not use it. We know he used because on at least one recorded occasion he read from the Scroll of what we today call Isaiah 61:1, 2, which reads in English: "The spirit of the Sovereign Lord Jehovah is upon me, for the reason that Jehovah has anointed me to tell good news to the meek ones. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to those taken captive and the wide opening [of the eyes] even to the prisoners; to proclaim the year of goodwill on the part of Jehovah." Compare this to Luke 4:17-19: "So the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed him, and he opened the scroll and found the place where it was written: 'Jehovah's spirit is upon me, because he anointed me to declare good news to the poor, he sent me forth to preach a release to the captives and a recovery of sight to the blind, to send the crushed ones away with a release, to preach Jehovah's acceptable year.'" He would not have removed God's Name from the text when he read it, as so many modern translations indicate. He would have read the Name. Too bad there are no original copies of the Gospel accounts for us to study today.

Answer 2

In the King James version....

The only prayer that Jesus is recorded as having said aloud is what is known as The Our Father, and the word Jehovah is not used in it.

The word Jehovah is not mentioned in the New Testament.

How Jesus may have addressed God in his silent prayers is unknown.

When dying, he is reported to have said "Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit". So, if he said that 'in extremis', it is unlikely that he would have used any other word than Father when praying.

Answer 3

The Bible could give the best answer. Matthew 16:16, King James Version reads: "... Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God." Hence, Jesus is not God himself; he is God's son. Who is, then God Almighty? Psalm 83:18, King James Version reads: "That [men] may know that thou, whose name alone [is] JEHOVAH, [art] the most high over all the earth." This verse clearly indicates that the name of God, who is Jesus' Father is - Jehovah. So Jehovah is the Father of Jesus Christ, and Jesus is his only-begotten son.

Answer 4

1. John 18:37 ""You are a king, then!" said Pilate. Jesus answered, "You are right in saying I am a king. In fact, for this reason I was born, and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.""

2. Rev. 1:5 "and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood,"

3. Rev. 3:14 ""To the angel of the church in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God's creation."

Answer 5

Jehovah is mentioned 6000 times in the bible. The most common verse which specifically mentions that god's name is jehova is Psalms 83:18.
