   Correction, it is the product of a rc monk in the middle ages who did not   
   know that an initial "j" sound is not possible in either greek or hebrew.   
   The jw vatican endorses a mistake, ain't that special?

   Sure, they took up the monk's mistake in 1 or two places, nowhere in the   
   thousands.  The greek translation for God/Lord was used.   
      
   >No other name for God is used so frequently as "Jehovah" in the Bible   
      
   Correction, only in the jw vatican "translation", no?   
      
   >OT.(see also the American Standard Bible) But most church Bibles cut

   Smile, tell us again the jw vatican invented fairy tale of how the greek   
   of the NT came to use their words for "God/Lord" by the actions of "jewish   
   scribes" many years af it was written and being widely used in churches.   
   >>The nwt gets it wrong, it uses a english translation "God"; not the

   >>entire bible, no not once.  Yet the nwt is full of that error.   
   >>   
   >>Then there are 9 aditional names of course.   
   >>   
   >>The NT is in greek where the name for God or Lord is used only.  Again the   
   >>nwt inserts falsely "jehovah" for the greek words translated from the   
   >>aramaic the apostles spoke.

   >>>Greek form "Iesous"? After all, they say Jesus is God. Cat got your

   >>   
   >>Smile, because "Jesus" *is* the english translateration of the greek above.   
   >>The hebrew is not used because it is likewise not an english   
   >>transliteration.  Remember the NT is in greek not hebrew.

   And the proof eats the jw vatican's weasal word tactics.
