Eli'Jah in hebrew is ELIYA or ('Eliyyahu)meaning "my God isYAHWEH". and the Jah in ELI'JAH IS SAME AS JAH IN YAHweh. hope u get it just as JOSHUA MIGHT BE YESHUA because the hebrew alphabeth does not contain the letter J, instead it is Y.

about what? That does not show the error in Jehovah. You guys are discussing another thing altogether. Well, which ever one u use, Yahweh or Jehovah. But my concern is why many people dont like using it when referring to there God.

There are as many names for God as there are languages on earth. It is S.tupid and a sign of brainwashing to assume that only the Jewish language term for God is applicable.

There is absolutely no evidence that a 'Moses' ever existed, or that if he did, he was ever spoken to in person by the Creator of the universes. An unsubstantiated tale in a book of dubious origin does not constitute evidence.

Hey the Muslims got it all right

Jehovah is yhwh, not yehowah.

Jehovah is the english pronunciation of the name, some scholars prefer using Yahweh.

the bible has nothing to do with Islam nor Muhammed.

How does one prove a negative?

So if I write a book today and claim all sorts of fantastic events and occurrences in it, and then you rightfully ask me to prove those things really happened, I should then ask you to prove they did not?

Of course that's not how it works.

The onus is on YOU to prove to yourself the truth of the imported book you worship. Have you done so? And I don't mean dumbly following everything in the book, but actually taking your head outside its numerous threats and attempts at suppressing your intellect, by researching the existence or otherwise of characters and events claimed in the book, using sources OUTSIDE of the bible?

When you do that, what do you find? You find there is virtually no independent corroborative recording of ANY of the events or personalities claimed in the bible.

For instance there is no record in the Egyptian annals of a 'Moses'. Other characters like 'Jacob, Esau, Jesus, Mary, Saul, Peter, Noah, Jonah' etc etc - there 's absolutely no record outside the bible, of these people having actually existed.

Intriguingly, there is no family today that claims descent from any of these characters, including Jesus, Mary, Joseph etc.

What happened to the descendants of all these people alleged to have lived? Why are the Roman official records silent on the alleged 'crucifixion of Christ'? Silent on the very existence of Christ? Why did no writer contemporaneous with his alleged time on earth write a single word about him, in a region where there were hundreds of well known writers?

If I wrote a book claiming all these incredible things for which you cannot find any sources outside the book to verify the claims, would you take my book serious? No. So why do you take the bible serious? Sure it's got a lot of in-built threats, threatening you with harm and suffering for not believing it, BUT IT WOULD, WOULDN'T IT?

Without those threats, no one would pay the book a second glance, would they?

Why would a loving omnipotent God feel the need to use threats of suffering and torture, to convince you to love him?

If I stood over you and threatened you with a knife or gun to 'love me or die' what would you make of it?

You would think I was evil and insane, correct?

But that's EXACTLY what is being claimed for the Creator in the Jewish bible.

WHY SHOULD YOU ACCEPT THAT?

the reason y der are no evidence is either because of the egyptian archive that was destroyed when egypt was invaded or they were just ashamed to write that part of their history.... but the bible is accurate in its explanation and its details to make you believe he existed

i wouldnt deliberate much on this issue, instead i will tell you this. allah as being existing as the god of the prophet. allah was one of the 360 gods in th kabba, allah was the moon god that the household of mohammed served. mohammed father's name was ab'dullah. you can see this in your creed that allah is the greatest and not allah is great. and pls u just dont want to go into details here. bring on a new thread and lets discuss.

God revealed himself to his people of Israel by making his name known to them. A name expresses one's essential identity and the meaning of one's life. God has a name; he is not an anonymous force. To disclose one's name is to make oneself known to others; in a way it is to hand oneself over by becoming accessible, capable of being known more intimately and addressed personally.206In revealing his mysterious name, YHWH ("I AM HE WHO IS", "I AM WHO AM" or "I AM WHO I AM"wink, God says who he is and by what name he is to be called. This divine name is mysterious just as God is mystery. It is at once a name revealed and something like the refusal of a name, and hence it better expresses God as what he is - infinitely above everything that wecan understand or say: he is the"hidden God", his name isineffable, and he is the God who makes himself close to men. YHWH

please ask Josephus about Jesus and Moses. ask Justine Matyr about Moses and Jesus. the bible has no external confirmation of its characters and some manuscripts and ancient stones discovered by archaeologists shows those names, where those stones bible?

if ur god issues u a threat to serve him, mine does not.

if this book called the bible is a fairytell. then its writer must be knowledgeable than science. how can it review what science later knew years after it said it without sophisticated equipments?
