Something that has puzzled me- Many people call God, God. A generalized term that could have multiple implications.
Now I know Almighty God, The God of the bible gave His name to the Israelites. In english it's spelled YHWH. Now the Israelites didn't speak His name out of reverence and some people would say that because of not ever speaking His name, we lost the pronunciation.
I've heard variations of how man believes His name should be said- Yahwah, Yahvoh, Yehoveh, Jehovah, etc.
So my 1st question is- do we know how to say Gods name?
My second question is- Some people write God like this- G_d. I understand they are doing this out of reverence, but don't they understand that the term God is a generalization?
