[Heb. usually yĕhōvāh (with the vowel points of ădōnāi Lord), sometimes (to avoid repetition) yĕhōvih (with the vowel points of ĕlōhīm God); but only the four Heb, consonants yhvh are conceded to be certainly known.] A Scripture name of the Supreme Being, by which he was revealed to the Jews as their covenant God or Sovereign of the theocracy; the “ineffable name” of the Supreme Being, which was not pronounced by the Jews.
