All the names in bible that start with Jeho, sometimes even just Jo, refer by definition to the name Jehovah. Jehoshaphat, Jehosheba, Jehoshua, Jehoram, Jehonathan, Jehonadab, (update after) etcetera, so where is the list of names in the is article? Where is the article for this massive list of names that happens to exist if you include the suffixed names along with the prefixed names? This article states that the Tetragrammaton is in the bible almost seven thousand times, but I have little doubt that if you include all th names that refer to the Tetragrammaton there are likely tens of thousands of references. This seems like a glaring omission from both this article and from Wikipedia. 24.78.228.96 (talk) 09:02, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"This seems like a glaring omission from both this article and from Wikipedia." No such omission. There is a partial list of such theophoric names in the main article on theophoric names. Dimadick (talk) 11:08, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Not to mention a list of theophoric names added to either this or the Tetragrammaton articles would make them ridiculously long; they are lengthy enough already, plus there's a link to the Theophoric names article in the "See also" section. Stephen Walch (talk) 18:36, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm talking about their comments, it isn't a personal attack at all. At worst it might be called uncivil, but it can't be because I'm talking about the words not them.
(a) it is deceptive to just have at the very very bottom of the article a link that goes to some general, practically random article, when this article goes into great detail about the validity of this translation. It's completely unacceptable.
(b) not having a small section instead, with some few examples, of the consistency of translation with other names in the bible, is withholding important facts.
Neither of those things is an attack, you are censoring for the sake of chopping of the (metaphorical) exclamation points I used, not genuine judgment that an unbiased judge would used, but most probably emotional biased interference. 2604:3D09:BA7E:8D20:BF:BD96:3105:E481 (talk) 06:10, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The article describes a translation of a Hebrew name of God that is used in the Old Testament. Some modern translations include the name in their rendering of the NT but it is not in the original manuscripts. There is no special reason to assert a Christian POV in the article and WP:ERA applies.—Jeffro77 (talk) 23:17, 14 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
165.255.99.10 (Someone has to call out the mistruth here) It says right in the article, under translations that it is QUOTED in the New Testament 128 times from the Old Testament. Some say only 78, but that's still not nothing as implied by him. 2604:3D09:BA7E:8D20:BF:BD96:3105:E481 (talk) 08:09, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
When discussion has ended, remove this tag and it will be removed from the lists. If this page is on additional lists, they will be noted below.
Would someone like to help add a sub-section that is titled "theophoric names."
I could contain a few honorable mentions., and the importance of highlighting the consistancy of transltion of names like (for example): Jehoshaphat, Jehosheba, Jehoshua, Jehoram, Jehonathan, Jehonadab, etc.
