Original subtitles

and and hopefully the second half we'll

get back to to the name of the creator

of the universe and see how this what

this has to do with Yahweh because this

is key to understanding where we get

Yahweh this is actually I mean it's when

I discovered this this really was one of

the most important discoveries of my

life and I had heard people say this

before and I'm like you're just guessing

you don't know stop you're guessing I

want to see evidence and then I found

the smoking gun that I'm gonna share in

part 2 Bible prophecy is being fulfilled

today in the Land of Israel and even

around the world Jeremiah said that in

the last days Israel would come into the

land in the last days and that the

Gentiles would come to Israel and cry

out for the abominations that they

inherited from their forefathers and it

says that when the Gentiles cry out in

repentance saying surely we have

inherited lies we've inherited pagan

gods we've inherited things that that do

not advantage us at all they're vain it

says that the Almighty promises that the

Gentiles who repent will know his hand

his might his strength and that the

Gentiles will know that my name is King

James the Lord but that's not what it

says in Cain in the Hebrew text and

reprising that the Gentiles the Gentiles

shall know my name we have Nehemia

gordon back with us to give us an update

on the greatest biblical research

project of this century lamia good to

have you back with us if your back

Michael Shalom Shalom

well damming up this is back January of

last year of 2017 you had found at that

point I believe it was about six Hebrew

manuscripts that had the correct vowel

points all all I hear in all five Hebrew

manuscripts and it took you how many

years to find it

that was over a period of about 15 years

and you started learning Hebrew at age

in kindergarten okay so

I mean I learned some Hebrew before that

but I was able to I learned to read

Hebrew and English together in

kindergarten you know I read I learned

the alphabet and the ABC I mean you know

you learned them together and we're

expected to be able to certainly read

the prayers and understand the prayers

and you know back in kindergarten well

it didn't stop there because you

attended Hebrew University got your

degree there in your masters and it is

the biblical studies and minor and

archaeology oh my bachelor's was an

archive actually actually a double major

for my bachelor's archaeology and

Biblical Studies and I continued in

biblical studies as my master your

proficiency is so well known in the land

of Israel that I was actually introduced

to you by rabbinic scholars of the

Israeli new-moon society and you are the

one that the go-to guy as far as

understanding that ancient Hebrew

technical term referring to the Barley's

maturity as avi this is something that

that you spent years and years

researching and they recognized it you

know I know that every single month they

have a rabbinic court that meets that

that they have the ones who've cited the

new moon exactly they're documented but

even you know the the other side of that

is that begins a month but the year

begins in the month of the Aviv and you

were the one that provided that

information right right well and and and

really it for me it's a matter of ends

what I was trained at Hebrew University

and even before I went to the University

this was my approach is people say this

is what it means how do we know that's

what it means

what's our sources for that what is it

what do we really know you know

somewhere somewhere there's a source and

that source is the information we have

not not what it says in the you know in

the translation or you know like for

example of Eve as translated as green

ears yeah so if it's anything it's not

that right well I mean it's not just

green it's it's beyond that right

meaning maybe you could translate it as

still green or with you know a hue of

green so what people would would do is

they'd read you know okay green ears and

they'd go and they'd find this unripe

grain that you know you you you know

wouldn't be ripe enough to begin the

year and and the point is that what I

did with the Aviv is the same thing I

did with the name

when I did what the name is well they're

telling me it's Yahweh all right

everybody knows it's Yahweh every

scholar and every University in the

world know what's yeah we Jews don't

know that right but that's a good day

Jews don't know that well so everybody

who thinks it's actually who put what I

eventually discovered which is that it's

Yehovah but now I can prove from the

sources it's you Oba you ask the average

Jew that's what they think but but in

the academic world there are certain

it's Yahweh and why they certain it's

Yahweh this goes back to it really we

really have to start this Michael in

Exodus 3:14 and 15 okay well let's go

start there so let's take everyone with

us I'm going to start with you I'm gonna

read you the King James okay and the

King James changed one word that changes

the entire meaning of this passage a

single word was changed that completely

changes a kind of an important word

right so in God said unto Moses I am

that I am and in Hebrew it's actually a

yeah yeah yeah which is more like I will

be that which I will be but but that's

not the key point and he said thou shall

you say unto the children of Israel I am

hath sent me unto you okay

so I am as the named according to access

3:14 yeah okay even in Hebrew he has is

certainly referring to him let's put it

that way and then verse 15 and God said

moreover unto Moses thus shalt thou say

unto the children of Israel the Lord God

of your father's the God of Abraham the

god of Isaac the God of Jacob has sent

me unto you this is my name forever and

this is my memorial to all generations

well there's no name in verse 15 so the

name must be the I am of verse 14 and so

so I've heard it are so would such and

and correctly so based on the English

here of the King James meaning if you're

if you're basing it I want your reading

and the English of the King James that

is actually correct but the name is a

yeah I am however when you read it Annie

root instead of Lord God in verse 15

what it actually says is Vaio Modelo he

made Masha and Elohim God said further

to Moses cotrim albinius I was so sure

you say to the children of Israel yeah

ova Aloha vote FM yo ho via the god of

your father's etc has sent me to you

Zess mellow llamas as Aquila dovid oh

this is my name forever this is my

memorial literally mentioned four

generations of generation

so what is God's mentioned what is his

name his actual name is Jehovah and what

so then what is a yeah so a and verse 14

is the explanation of the name you

wouldn't know that in English but in

Hebrew it's obvious because Yehovah the

name is a combination of three forms of

the verb to be its hi-yah he was Hova he

is and yeah he will he is to come or he

will be now every Jew knows that's the

meaning of the name what's really

interesting is recently I had a

discussion with Vinny Amin sadaqa he is

the tops American scholar in the world

he's wearing 108 books this guy and he

says to me something really interesting

and we'll get back to him hopefully

later but he says to me do you know what

the name means I said I know what it

means but you're a Samaritan what do you

think it means right and he says to me

it means he was he is he is to come he

will be uh uh hiya oveja he was he is he

he will be so the Jews know this and the

Samaritans know it you know where else

you find this Michael I think you do

know it's at the book of Revelation so

you have the book of Revelation has he

was he is he is to comment or he will be

that's he has to come as a translation

essentially of Yehia he will be and so

you have this in the Jews the Samaritans

and the New Testament and you can't tell

me well the Jews looked in the book of

Revelation that's where they got it

obviously they got it from a common

source right and the Samaritans

certainly aren't getting it from the

Jews so where are they all getting this

from so I asked this to be mean sadaqa

how do you know that's what it means and

he said it's obvious from Exodus 3:14 so

he's the second witness I you know I

would have said I said that for years

when you read it in Hebrew oh yeah I

will be is the explanation of the name

Yehovah how is it an explanation well it

has to do with how Hebrew verbs are

structured so essentially you take those

three forms of the verb how yahuveh yeah

you combine them and you get you'd have

ave God's personal name and that's why

he says he's saying I will be has sent

has sent me and then he explains okay

just so you know that's just a one-time

title for now but my name for generation

of generation my eternal name is Jehovah

that's his eternal and that that's what

X is to be 14 to 15 means now we

all that scholars came along let me ask

you yeah the you're speaking with the

head scholars of the Samaritans yep on

Mount Gerizim yeah and so he knows what

it means and so what does he say the

name is is this so he says that I asked

him how do you pronounce that he said we

don't pronounce it instead of

pronouncing them we say scheme'

which is Aramaic for the name 2 Kings 17

can I pull up yeah yeah I think this is

very important for people to understand

the background yeah of the Samaritans I

take my tour groups up to meet this

Americans go in the museum and and you

know this is one of the features Yeshua

spoke to the well Matt the well is

Samaritan right right hey and now look

today there's something like 600

Samaritans and the time you sure there

were a million Samaritans right there

were a large area a large contingent of

people who dominated norther with today

northern Israel the area of Samaria so

you know the so-called West Bank which

Jews called Judea and Samaria so 2 Kings

17 describes the exile of the ten

northern tribes they're taken as

captives into another land and why do

the why did the Assyrians do this their

policy was it's really hard to control

people who are far away from you because

they'll rebel and how do you prevent

them from rebelling you take the people

from the city of take a city Beit Shean

and you go and you plant them somewhere

surrounded by enemies well who are

they're gonna rebel with right they're

not going to join up with the next town

because they don't even speak the

language of the next town they don't

have the same religion as the next town

it was divide and conquer that's what

the Assyrians did so the Assyrians took

the ten tribes scattered them all over

what today is Iran and Iraq and possibly

parts of Syria and in their place they

took people from five different regions

which were also in those areas and this

is all stipulated it's it's described in

detail on 2 Kings 17 I'm not going to

read the whole thing but let me just

read you the key part here where he says

okay verse 24 and the king of Assyria of

2 Kings 17 and verse 24 in the king of a

seer

brought men from Babylon and from kusa

and from Ava and from Hamas and from

safar volume and placed them in the

cities of Samaria instead of the

children of Israel meaning in the

replacement right and why do you do that

well because run your businesses we want

to be able to tax people so we can't

just have a bunch of empty cities and we

want to have like let's be really honest

we want to have human shields so when

the Egyptians invade Assyria they've got

to go through these villages that are

garrisoned by people from these five

cities who are now in Samaria instead of

back in Babylon in other places right so

so it has two functions there one is for

taxes and one is it's a human shield

then and they possess samaria and dwell

in the cities thereof and so it was at

the beginning of their dwelling there

that they feared the Lord and then

quitting in Hebrew it says jehovah

therefore you hava set lines among them

which slew some of them wherefore they

spoke spake to the king of Assyria

saying the nations were which thou has

removed and placed in the cities of

Samaria no not the manner of the god of

land basically what they're saying is we

are pagans that have been moved in oh

yeah pagans from Babel

the god of the land right right and

their thought is it's a very common

pagan thought you know pagans the I mean

and even if you go for example today and

I don't mean this to insult anybody if

you go today to India they'll say yeah

all gods are real we just worship this

one one particular God maybe maybe two

or three gods right but they don't deny

that Jesus is a God and that Allah is a

God and that you know whoever like I

don't even like like Buddha's a God they

don't have an issue with that they just

say we just don't worship Buddha we

worship our God's so that's the way they

were thinking is well why are these

lions attacking us why were the Lions

really attacking them well one they were

sitting into the cities had been

abandoned for some period of time and so

Lions took over the place more like in

Israel it was more like you know

mountain lions or it's not African lions

right big Bobcats thing right but

they're being attacked by these wild

beasts why because they sinned and

because the area had been abandoned

right they're moving into places that

maybe nobody lived for a few years and

they're taken over by wild animals so

they say oh we know why this is

happening

we better worship the God of the land

who is the God of the land we don't know

we came in to some foreign country

called Samaria called Israel so what is

what happens long story short the king

of Assyria commands

that one of the priests of the ten

tribes is sent back to teach the these

Gentiles how to follow the God of the

land who is this priest he's one of the

wicked priests right that got the ten

tribes exiled in the first place and

when told in earlier in Kings and first

Kings 11 we're told that this is the sin

of Jeroboam that the ten tribes take

priests who aren't from Levi who aren't

from Aaron and they anoint them priests

they're priests in the castle those

people well they're not from the line of

Aaron a biblical priest has to be from

the line of Aaron and they took just

anybody who who they thought was worthy

of being a priest and they called him

priest so this is one of the priests who

ends up teaching the Samaritans how to

follow the Torah

well there are Samaritans there till

this day now in the story here in Kings

is it says in verse 28 says then one of

the priests whom they had carried away

from Samaria came and dwelt in Bethel

and taught them how they should fear you

Hova howbeit every nation made gods of

their own and put them in the houses of

the high places with just Americans had

made every nations in their cities were

when they dwelt and the men of Babylon

made Sukkot but note what Sukkot but

note that was the God they worship back

in Babylon in other words the early

Samaritans did something the modern

Americans say they don't do and I

believe them early Samaritans what they

did is they had two gods they worship

the God of the land so the lions don't

attack us and their native God from back

in their home country where they came

from so Babylon they wayde's to coppa

note the men of couthe made their guile

and the men of hamas made Ashima

the Samaritans in ancient times he tells

me this Samaritan leader

Binyamin sadaqa this great new musi the

he says that we never called God by his

actual name yet hey Bob hey okay I

believe him why do I believe him

cuz Josephus Flavius the Jewish

historian in the first century confirms

this he actually confirms about how when

when you know this whole story of the

Maccabees which became Hanukah is the

Jews were rebelling against the Greeks

the saluted Greeks and so the saluted

Greek governor started persecuting the

Jews and the Samaritans right to the M

to the to the governor and they say why

are we being persecuted we you know they

sent this to entire kiss they say why

are we being perfect

we're not even Jews we're just

foreigners in this land okay we do that

with just leaves I think this is very

instruction okay yeah and we're

broadcasting to Bible students out there

so the more that you fill in well your

part you will find out really soon that

this is key information right key

information because where does Yahweh

come from Yahweh purportedly comes from

the Samaritans we'll find that out in a

few minutes if we get to it hopefully if

we have time this is Josephus Flavius

antiquities of the Jews written in the

first century book twelve section 258 so

they sent embassadors meaning the

Samaritan sent embassadors to Antiochus

and an epistle whose contents are these

so we have a letter that the Samaritans

sent sometime around 168 or 175 BC some

time in that period to Antiochus

Epiphanes the fourth and by the way the

saluted governor or the saluted King his

our Emperor his name wasn't a kiss at

Buffay knees what does that buffet knees

means it means the one who reveals

himself so he claimed to be a god

Antiochus so they write to encourage

hiss and a pit and then a pistol whose

contents are these two key king

Antiochus the God at buffet knees

meaning the one who reveals himself a

memorial from the sidonians who live at

Shem meaning straight off they're saying

we're actually not Israelites we just

live here ah our forefathers upon

certain frequent plagues mentioned in 2

Kings 17 and is following a certain

ancient superstition had a custom of

observing that day which by the Jews is

called the Sabbath in other words what

they're saying is we only worship

Shabbat because we were attacked by

lions and it was the Jewish superstition

and we're just do this isn't really

something we believe in were just doing

it now look I'm not saying the

Samaritans they believe this but

according to Josephus this is a letter

that was sent some time around 168 BC

and when they had erected a temple at

the mountain called grism though without

a name they offered upon it the proper

sacrifices what does that mean without a

name so what that means without a name

is that if you know it's not ignorance

it's actually very deliberate the Temple

in Jerusalem is referred to as the place

yahuveh chose to put his name

the place it's also called the place you

have I caused his name to dwell and

they're telling us in one around 168 or

175 BC we have a temple greasing which

follows the sacrifices of the Torah but

we don't call the name of the God of

Israel upon this temple hmm because it's

not the place he put a thing they

understood that give him some credit

that they understood that yeah

meaning they understood Jerusalem was

the place where God put his name forever

now upon the just treatments of these

wicked Jews those that manage their

affairs supposing that we were of kin to

them in other words your governor who

thinks were Jews doesn't know the

difference in Samaritans Jews and

practice as they do make it made us make

us liable to the same accusations

although we are originally Sidonians as

is evident from the public records I

mean you can check in your own records

to see where foreigners in the Land of

Israel we don't come from here we were

brought from some other land to King 17

section verse 261 and Josephus here we

therefore beseech thee our benefactor

and Savior referring to the king to give

order to Apollonius the governor of this

part of the country and to Nicanor the

procurator of your affairs to give us no

disturbance nor delay our charge what

the Jews are accused for since we are

aliens from their nation and from their

customs right we're just doing the

Sabbath and sacrifice thing because

there was a superstition by our

ancestors when we're attacked by lions

but we're not Israelites and then they

say but let our temple which at present

has no name at all be named the temple

of Jupiter Hellenists whoa so what are

they doing here they figure out they're

not stupid they realize why the Jews are

being persecuted the Keaton's so

remember what happened at ConAgra with

the Maccabees yeah they they put the the

statue of Jupiter on the Temple Mount on

Jupiter's birthday December 25th

declaring a Jupiter to be God and why I

mean I understand there's the focus was

on Apollo but in any event with the

ground well is it's the same thing so

what that what they're doing back then

the Greeks wanted to wipe out the Jews

but not in the way that other people not

the way the Nazis want to worry about

the Jews what the Nazis want to do is

kill every last Jew what the Greeks want

to do is assimilate the Jews and make

them Greeks right and so they came along

to the Jews and the

said look stop your Shabbat stop

circumcising your children you have

these things that make you distinct from

other nations we just want you to be

Greeks we want you to be part of our

Empire and how it would make you part of

our Empire everyone's the same so why

rebel we're just all the same right this

is assimilation radical assimilation

right I mean Jews came to America and we

learned to speak English and we follow

the laws and were loyal to the country

were assimilated in that sense but we

still could maintain our own

distinctiveness we keep Shabbat those

who are follow the Torah here where they

wanted to wipe out the faith of the Jews

by making them become Greeks and one of

the things they said to them one of the

things we find in a and we talked about

this in the open door series that we

said that we did together years ago it's

wonderful series 18 hours long chain

yeah and in their tremendous oh everyone

needs to get at the open doors

absolutely it's it's it's one honestly

it's it's a you know not it's nine hours

of my me teaching there and it's nine of

the best hours of teaching I've ever

done and so in there I bring the source

which is in Jewish sources that say one

of the prohibitions of the Greeks one of

the things that Greeks did to us is they

said you must not to speak the net you

must not speak the name of your God now

why would the Greeks care if we speak

the name of our God cuz we want

everybody just to worship God right just

call him say oh s--- just call him

coreos just called lord and god and then

we can all pretend we worship the same

God and after a few generations who will

remember that you guys are distinct will

have this big salad that mixes up and

you'll call him God well you can say it

believe in your heart that God is

yahuveh we don't care about that but

don't speak it because if you speak it

you make it real and if you just pretend

it's the same name after a few

generations people will your descendants

will forget and will be one nation this

was the goal of the Greek so the

Samaritans hear this and they say we

don't even use God's name let's just

call him let's just call him Zeus which

is here translate here is Jupiter

essentially it's Zeus Zeus of the Greeks

we don't care we'll put any name you

want in the temple just don't persecute

us right why are we keeping Shabbat cuz

lions attacked us you know now we're

being attacked by eating by men by

humans by Greek

you we want that to stop it hurts you

know what are we gonna do we'll just not

call the temple by that name which is

really amazing because we have this coin

here can I show you this coin Michael

uh-huh this is a coin that was uncovered

by archeologists it's a coin that shows

the mount grism and on top of mount

greasy mature and what's really cool is

archaeologists have excavated it's a

coin from Shem from Nablus and it shows

mount cuisine that's what we're seeing

here in the middle and on top is a

temple and there's steps leading up to

the temple because Mount trem is in the

valley of Mount cruising's up on the

hill and those steps were discovered by

archaeologists so you have a coin and

you find some and the temple was found

by archaeologists that's a temple to

Jupiter on top of my museum that's on

their coins so the Samaritan started out

worshipping the God of Israel and some

local deity and they but they didn't

call the God of Israel by his name

according to their own worden and

confirmed by Josephus and then they come

along and they're being persecuted they

said we'll just call him Zeus or Jupiter

we don't care just just stop hurting us

stop persecuting us right we're not the

Israelites that we care that much you

know back then at least I'm sure they

care now right but um and they still

don't call him by his name but so back

then they start worshipping this God and

they start calling him they start

calling him Zeus and Jupiter and and

hopefully the second half we'll get back

to the name of the creator of the

universe and see how this is what this

has to do with Yahweh because this is

key to understanding where we get Yahweh

this is actually I mean it's when I

discovered this this really was one of

the most important discoveries of my

life and I had heard people say this

before and I'm like you're just guessing

you don't know stop your guessing I want

to see evidence and then I found the

smoking gun that I'm gonna share in part

two before our break Nehemia is shared

with us some of his research up on Mount

Gerizim and dealing with one of the head

scholars of the Samaritan Enclave up

there and in found out a little bit of

the background of how they called the

name of their God which coincidentally

is in the book of the Kings where it's

telling us where the Samaritans came

from so why is all this important like

we don't and really I I want to I want

to you know look I'm coming from an old

test

background I'm Jewish but I wanna I want

to emphasize for the New Testament

people why this is important so there's

this passage and let me read okay leads

right out of here yeah because you know

we're also you brought up that at the

time of Apollonius and this is something

that was put up by the Samaritans a

letter that they built the temple and up

on Mount Gerizim and dedicated it to

Jupiter cool they they don't believe it

they'd already had a temple at that time

and it was originally they were they

referred to it as the temple the god of

no name and it's really interesting

because the greek word there is an animo

which is anonymous so originally it was

called an anonymous temple and what that

meant again in the context is the Temple

in Jerusalem is the place Yehovah put

his name and they said okay we're not

using his name we you know we we just we

it's the god of no name and what that

shows you is they weren't using the name

of God with any pronounciation back in

that period of time Mac and sometime

around 168 BC and so this becomes

important and when we get to where

Yahweh comes from right yeah but first

of all I want to share this is the

Lord's Prayer hmm this is when Yeshua is

actually playing to the Father this is

before other crucifixion so this is the

Lord's Prayer okay you wrote a book a

prayer to our Father which is how Yeshua

said was teaching his disciples how to

pray exactly right but here in

Versailles chapter 17 of John verse 6

I'll read King James I have manifested

thy name under the men which thou gavest

me out of the world and in in verse 26

he says I have declared unto them thy

name I have declared unto them thy name

and will declare it hmm this is you

telling me that you of Nazareth actually

spoke the name of the father of you Dave

okay well we learn from your research

that hadn't been outlawed in the first

century at the time of Yeshua and he is

making it known he's declaring it

declare

declaring you he wants his name to be

known all over the earth and Yeshua is

one that is declaring it Wow

so Yeshua's speaking the name and he

makes it a point of how he that's

interesting that you know we were just

discussing this before that we started

he says I have declared it past tense

and I will declare it that's that's

really interesting like like I got a

wonder here if if there's an allusion

here to what in the Christian

understanding is second coming or

something like I don't know that's I

will declare it well let me give you

this because he's also talking about the

Holy Spirit leading us into all truth

they will send the spirit to lead us on

into all truth and by that spirit

leading us on to all truth he will

declare it and this is what we're seeing

today then that the Prophet said that

the Messiah will open the eyes of the

Gentiles the Gentiles will repent for

the abominations they heard inherited

and the Gentiles will know my name

and so you know it it's he has declared

it already and by way of the Holy Spirit

he will declare it and I and I contend

that the Holy Spirit has worked in you

to bring this out in so many ways in

over a thousand manuscripts now for this

generation in which we're seeing now

it's increasing men are running to and

fro you are running to and fro all where

all these manuscripts are these museums

on different continents assembling all

this information which has not been

available at any time in history before

oh yeah it really is incredible we have

access to so so let's go back to Yahweh

okay so we're going where do we get

Yahweh from so Yahweh and really from a

New Testament perspective really this

comes down to when Yeshua says that I

declared the name of the Father to his

disciples did he declare to them Yahweh

already declare to them yeah ova or

maybe something else right maybe it was

you know said in the past you know maybe

you if we don't know what the vowels are

it could be anything it could be you who

vous right it could be you know it could

be anything now we have a thousand over

a thousand Hebrew manuscripts that

verify that co ho Bob but why is it that

all these people think it's Yahweh okay

let me stop you right yeah

a minute yeah because 20 years ago I did

several videos in the land of Israel and

in which I was speaking the name as

Yahweh mm-hmm I was doing that yeah and

the information that you're about to

share with us I didn't want to listen to

I didn't want to hear what you had to

say and I find I had to admit it to

myself then I didn't want to listen

because I already staked my flag on the

name of Yahweh I had already done videos

that have gone out by the hundreds of

thousands all around the world and you

know I had had a stake in that and but

yet as this information as you started

bringing this out it finally came to a

point that I can't ignore this I can't

ignore this and even though I've you

know million in six videos I have and

I'm pronounce the name Yahweh I finally

had to change because the information

was there and the revelation also came

we won't go into that but but but I'm

saying that I had a vested interest in

my personal opinion it's not just

invested in DVDs you're emotionally

invested in this for years I think

that's such a it's really a powerful

thing being emotionally invested in

things and and and what I want I want to

I mean I don't want to I mean what you

did was the best you knew how to do at

the time and I believe that your hova

honors that now we can do better though

and what I love about you Michael is you

heard this information you said you know

what I can do better and you made the

shift and you're now saying you hope I

want it I want to explain to people

where Yahweh comes from okay please do

for because for 200 years the world has

been deceived and not really the Jewish

world the Jewish world doesn't know

anything about this the academic

scholarly world which then spilled over

into the Christian world has been

deceived by this information

I think it's deception and I when I dug

into where it came from I was shocked

because where it came from is gazania

skew genius is the great grammarian of

Hebrew grammar to this day the primary

lexicons of Biblical Hebrew Brown divert

Briggs and hey lot Hebrew and Aramaic

lexicon of the Old Testament are based

on the work of gazania s-- in the 1800s

and the primary grammar at Hebrew

University I would sit with these in

these classes and these you know the

professor would assign an assignment to

go check in the Hebrew grammar and the

Hebrew grammar the grammar of Biblical

Hebrew isn't in Hebrew it's in English

or German written by gassiness

so we had students I was sitting with

who are native Hebrew speakers who would

come to me and say can you help us our

English isn't good enough

help I'm like yeah I could read this you

know it's English in my native language

and sokka's enos is Hebrew grammar is is

really the foundation of modern Hebrew

of biblical studies in Hebrew and today

at Hebrew University and rightfully so

he was he did groundbreaking work what

he really did is he collected things

that were done by other people over

centuries and he put them as as Germans

are quite good at doing especially in

the past is doing things in a systematic

way mm-hm and so he was very systematic

he is wonderful I consult cuisine he's

almost every day Michael I'm not saying

he's a bad grammar I'm just saying he

didn't get everything right and one and

if you look at the earlier versions of

his dictionary and in particular you get

an a glimpse into his thought pattern of

where he so he was the one who

championed Yahweh and convinced the

scholarly world it should be Yahweh

because it was a debate in the Christian

world up until then meaning Yahweh

doesn't appear until 1599 that's the

first time it appears in the writings of

a man named Gilbert Jena bird and then

it's debated for a couple hundred years

by the Christians Ahava which the Jews

seems to think it is or is it Yahweh and

then then dizziness ends the discussion

is Yahweh and he brings two pieces of

evidence which shocked me because I

didn't know this until relatively

recently and he says this in the 1833

edition of his dictionary which was

translated in 1857 into English and in

the dictionary this part I actually

didn't know the first part so the first

part is that the main source for Yahweh

is a Christian church father named

theodoret of Cyrus who lived at the end

of the fourth beginning of the fifth

century AD and what Theodore - Cyrus

says is he's talking about the name and

he makes a statement that is quoted and

certainly every scholarly work on this

type topic as evidence for Yahweh and

with Theodore it says in his questions

on Exodus chapter 7 question number 15

he says the Samaritans

Yahveh while the jews call it aya she's

really interesting because he's at first

you think he's talking about the

tetragrammaton you'd have of a right and

that's what's understood certainly when

it comes to the Samaritans but he says

the Jews call God's name aya

well what's aya so years ago I suggested

the aya which supposedly the Jews refer

to God as was a corruption of the yah

that you have in hallelujah and that's

definitely a possibility meaning he's

not even talking about the

Tetragrammaton when it comes to the Jews

because by the time of theodoret of

cyrus there were very small number of

jews who still spoke the name it was

kept as a secret among the rabbis and

certainly this gent I wouldn't have

heard it like that makes no sense that

this Christian from some you know from

Cyrus and Theodora not Cyprus by the way

that he would have heard this it doesn't

doesn't make sense so where did they

hear this from and and how did he get

this information from the Samaritans

remember we just heard from Josephus

that in 168 BC the Samaritans didn't

speak the name of the God of Israel in

fact they had an they referred to God by

no name anonymous and then they

rededicated their temple to Zeus or

Jupiter so how so that was 168 BC and

now we're being told sometime around 500

AD by theodoret of Cyrus at 700 years

later that the Samaritans pronounced

God's name is Yahveh so where does he

get that so there's a couple of pots

there's a number of possibilities one is

well maybe there was some faction of

Samaritans who did speak it I don't know

there's not really evidence for that

what some scholars suggest and by the

way this is gazania PSA's basis for

yahweh this statement by theodoret when

i just read to you that is the only

solid proof of any kind for yahweh in

this statement by Theodoric who's

quoting the Samaritans by the way

Theodoric didn't know Hebrew the

Samaritans weren't even Israelites so

their form of Hebrew is a corrupt form

of Hebrew based on the northern dialect

but it was corrupted over time they

don't have the hey sound for example

this gentleman the the scholar Samaritan

scholar he says to me um you know the

name of God means how yahuveh he I said

well how do you pronounce that in

Samaritan

Hebrew hi-yah he says his Abba Hova

he says his a bee oh yeah yeah is yeah

be right so you can see some like you

remnant there of Hebrew but there he was

different than the Hebrew that was

preserved by the Jewish people it comes

from a different dialect and that was

corrupted over time so how on earth does

theodoret know what the Samaritans call

the God of Israel so one possibility is

that you know he heard them say some

other word and he just didn't really he

heard maybe third or fourth hand right

cuz I doubt he ever met a Samaritan so

somehow the word gets to him that they

refer to God as Yaba or Yahveh what they

might have actually been referring to is

what we saw in Exodus 3:14 and other

scholars have suggested this then in

Exodus 3:14 we saw that God is called a

he a he says I am and then he says this

is what you'll call me for the rest of

time is you'd have ave which is he was

he is he will be but Yahveh actually

would be pronounced in certain periods

of history of Greek as Yahveh well

Yahveh could be a form of a hey yeah and

that's what some scholars have suggested

that this is simply a corruption of a

and is therefore nothing to do with the

Tetragrammaton because in this period

the Samaritans didn't even speak the

name there's another possibility which I

find really scary and it's possible this

is true so the Samaritans we heard about

from Josephus rededicated that their

temple to to Jupiter well what's Jupiter

called in Latin in Latin he's not called

Jupiter first of all there's no Jay in

Latin right so in Latin he's called you

Patera and I actually spoke to an expert

in Latin to confirm this so today in

Latin they say yo or Jove for Jupiter

but in early and then that's where you

get in English where you know where

Sherlock Holmes says hey boy Joseph I

think I've got it he's saying by Jupiter

what are you saying you're saying by Jew

that's what he was saying can you

believe that I don't know what the

English were thinking back then in the

1800s

but anyway there's different forms of

Jupiter and I don't wanna get too

complicated here but there are different

what they call cases in Latin so those

you Petare llaves y OV e ovum yova

jupiter but basically in the early

laughed and it wasn't a V it was a

and so it wasn't pronounced yo it was

pronounced yo way in Latin 2,000 years

ago so now we have this word Yahweh and

where do we get Jupiter from yahwah it

Jupiter is Yahweh Petare Father Yahweh

that is the name of Jupiter that was the

god of the Latins yahwah and i heard

that I'm like that sounds awfully like

Yahweh and we know that the Samaritans

dedicated their temple to Jupiter

Jupiter of the Greeks so maybe if you

went to a Samaritan and said what's the

name of the God in that temple he would

say to you that's father Yahweh Yahweh

Patera so wait a minute so maybe this is

what he they heard from the Samaritans

it's just not the name of you nave of a

the God of Israel now you say okay come

on genius isn't gonna fall for that he

knew Greek who knew lat and he learned

that Greek and Latin before he learned

Hebrew he was an you know a solid German

scholar back then even in your day I

think people learn learned Latin right

and you know in the earlier generations

Europeans and people from the West

learned Greek Latin really well and so

he knew about Yahweh being the name of

Jupiter and you think how could there be

any connection between what what um what

he said what gazania is this great

German scholar of Hebraic study said and

Jupiter well he actually admits that

there is let me read you what he says

and I heard saw this and I'm like there

is it's a smoking gun these are the

words of gazania s-- in his 1857 edition

of his dictionary he says I suppose this

word referring to Yahweh and earlier in

the paragraph he says hey this comes

from the Samaritans Java which is Yahweh

I suppose this word to be one of the

most remote antiquity perhaps is the

same origin as yahwah llaves which is yo

yo s and you Peter

meaning Jove and Jupiter and transferred

from the Egyptians to the Hebrews so uh

what so in other words Kazee Gnaeus is

telling us we have two pieces of

information here we have a god we have a

name for God from the Samaritans which

is Yahveh which sounds awfully like

which which he believes would originally

have been Yahweh and Yahweh sounds

awfully like Yahweh of the Latins and we

we have you know he he so we have that

for in other words we have this

statement by Theodoric connecting it to

the Samaritan Yahveh which he thinks is

Yahweh and we have this Latin God called

Yahweh he says these two things can't be

a coincidence it must be that both the

Hebrews and the Latins come from some

worship some ancient deity who was

called Yahweh or Yahweh and they both

then separated in two different places

the Latins went to Italy the Israelites

went to Israel and they both continued

to call upon this name with a slightly

different pronunciation the Latin says

Yahweh and the Hebrews as Yahweh and

suggesting and it came from the Egyptian

and it came from the Egyptians he claims

now he says wrote this originally in

1833 and and and that's significant

because at that time they didn't really

know what hieroglyphics meant you know

in other words they hadn't fully

decipher hieroglyphics and so you could

kind of say anything you wanted about

the ancient Egyptians right there when

they did and they did right right I mean

famously there was a you know one

particular group we said yes we have

this document in hieroglyphics here's

our translation of it turns out they

just made that all up net once they once

the scholars actually decipher

hieroglyphics um you know that's

embarrassing for a Salt Lake City yeah

you said that in any event so here you

have him saying explicitly he's tying

together Yahweh Yahweh of the Samaritans

in theodoret and and the Yahweh of the

of Jupiter of the Latins and saying yeah

they both got that from the Egyptians oh

I saw this I said wait a minute

so you're proof for Yahweh the great

scholar who advocates for Yahweh is

telling us it's the name of a pagan

deity and it's the name of some Egyptian

dating that both the Latins in the

Hebrews worship well first of all it's

the name of a pagan deity then it

doesn't mean he was he isn't is to come

right and he and he claims it doesn't

mean that because he bases on a Hebrew

form that is I won't get into too

complicated stuff but it's the he Phil

form and the name Jehovah which comes

from hey yahoo bahia comes from the kyle

form it's a different form of the verb

and and the name Jehovah can mean he was

he is Ian to come Yahweh can't mean that

it you know it doesn't have that meaning

the actual meaning of Yahweh is unclear

as well if it means anything and why is

it unclear because they believed it came

from some Egyptian deity so it isn't

even Hebrew I was actually just at the

SPL conference in a society of biblical

literature and this woman gave a lecture

and she says this isn't a Hebrew name

this is an ancient pagan issue I mean

today in this century people are still

saying the same thing this was in 27

November 2017 a serious scholar is

giving a paper saying this is the name

of a pagan deity that transferred from

other languages eventually into Hebrew

and if you want to know the name of the

the meaning of the word don't look in

Hebrew look at these other pagan

language languages I mean so what so

what he was saying back then in 1833

what Kazee Gnaeus was saying is still

being advocated by people today

now Michael when I heard this I mean I'm

a you know some people make fun of me

they say that I'm really liberal cuz

look I say if you want to calm Yahweh

calm Yahweh and I still say that but at

least know what the background of Yahweh

is and where it comes from now the God

of Israel I believe is far more merciful

than we are and so I mean I don't want

people to hear this and say oh no I've

been praying to the wrong God you

haven't been praying to the wrong God

you were doing the best you could with

what you had but now you've got better

information and you should be convicted

by that you need to follow the truth

when you discover it I want to read a

passage from Psalm 44 I talked about

this passage this was a life-changing

passage for me Michael

it's a verse in Psalm 44 isn't talked

about in my book shattering the

conspiracy of silence I'm a whole

section on that in my book so it's

talking in Psalm 44 about the Israelites

being taken into exile if you read the

whole context here they're taken into

exile their captives in a foreign land

and then they say in verse 20 and the

English 21 in the Hebron area the Hebrew

says shush shikaku Shama Doha knew if we

forgot the name of our God the knee flus

cap Angela Eleazar and we stretched out

our hands our palms to a foreign God

what does that mean the way the

Israelites would pray you know I do this

and some people say are you a

Pentecostal know I'm praying like it

Israelite

how the Israelites would pray they would

stretch up their hands to God raising

their hands we see that if we forgot the

name of our God and we stretched out our

palms to a foreign deity hello Elohim

yaha cause oat will God not investigate

this key who Yoda italo most live for he

knows the mysteries of the heart that is

you know I'm in a foreign land and I

grew up being told you're not allowed to

say the name of your God we have this

concept in Judaism tea no peony spa it's

the and it refers to a time in history

which actually has come back

unfortunately it literally means the

baby who is taken captive by pirates it

refers to a time in history when Jews

would travel the Mediterranean and there

were these Muslim pirates the Barbary

pirates right Thomas Jefferson dealt

with them oh yeah but but Jews you said

yeah ashore Tripoli right that's the

shores of Tripoli right so this was a

problem for Jews for over a thousand

years living in the Mediterranean that

the Jewish babies would be captured and

then they would meet their father years

later and the child would have been

raised as a Muslim and so Jew so rabbis

discussed they say they said the teen

option each ba the baby that was

captured by the Pirates is he you know

Jews are supposed to follow the Torah

were taught but this Jew doesn't know

any better he was captured by pirates

and as I'm sharing this I'm realizing

gazania sin some way was a linguistic

pirate he captured the hearts of

billions of people for the last 200

years to tell them hey guys it's Yahweh

and if you read my books you'll find out

I also think Yahweh is a pagan deity but

can you I mean it's right there in his

book mm-hmm

he's telling you Yahweh is the name of

some Egyptian deity that's also

worshipped by the Latins

and that's why it's Yahweh because it

fits Yahweh the Jupiter form so I mean

we were in a world where we've been lied

to and deceived for 200 years and now we

were like that baby who was taken

captive by the pirates and meets his

father and realizes in my heart I feel

that I'm a Jew in my heart I feel the

God of Israel and the truth and when I

hear it I can repent now I'm not going

to be judged for what I did when I

didn't know any better that's the idea

of Tino bah bah but now that I know and

my heart is stirred I can return to the

God of Israel and this

what is talking about in Psalm 44 I mean

literally talks about these people who

grew up in Babylon and we're told don't

speak the name of your God and instead

they're calling out the names of bow and

mardukan who knows what deities right

because they don't know any better but

in their hearts they're they're turning

their hearts towards the one true God

towards the God of Israel in innocence

and and so I don't think God is striking

people down because they're calling upon

God with the wrong name but it's still

important to try to get it right if we

can right we've been captivated by this

falsehood for 200 years since 1833 when

when gazania stroke that and now we have

better information surely we should act

on that better information and we were

talking before about you know from your

perspective in the New Testament

you've got Yeshua and I know there's

people who have been saved in the name

of Jesus they'll tell you it was on a

certain date with a certain time and and

you're not saying Michael write to those

people

hey that salvation experience you had

that was false you're not saying that

right no no that's not the point that's

not the point we're making here the

point we're making here is okay you had

that experience gods that merciful that

if you mispronounce his name that he can

still find you where you are even if you

call him by a mispronunciation based on

the name Jupiter he can still respond to

your prayer ease that amazing that

merciful but now that we know better we

should return to the truth doing the

best we can with this information as

knowledge as being increased I think I

mean I think that's why Jeremiah and his

prophecy said that the Gentiles come to

the Land of Israel it's in it's after

after the Jews after Israel starts

coming coming back and then then the

Gentiles come back and they cry out in

repentance saying we've inherited lies

well you know that that's that's all

that's required when when your mommy

tells you that a pot-bellied man in a

cherry red suit drops through the

chimney on Christmas Eve and delivers

presents you have no way of refuting

that you don't know any different it

turns out that's a pagan deity to molla

Oh

yeah that's right it's part of the lies

that we inherited right I mean God is

just so merciful he's really incredible

and look you know your people inherited

lies my people inherited lies as well

and and and taught lies to themselves

into the world and and lies when they

knew the truth that they kept hidden

they kept it a secret and this is what I

discovered over the last year that

literally my ancestors were involved in

a conspiracy of silence they knew with

his name was Jehovah and they wanted it

to be kept hidden

and now that information is going out

around me I want you to come back and I

want you to lay that thing out because

as you say it was literally one of your

relatives that deliberately hid the name

and now his name is being known

throughout the world and you are really

atoning for the sins of your father's

it's how I'm giving this it this out you

know I know it cost you a lot it's

costing you your life to do this you had

to put aside everything else in the

world to be able to do this and get this

message out and it's a my honor to be at

least a little bit of a vehicle in doing

that well it's my honor to share this

with the people can end with prayer

please please ma'am and Jehovah Volusia

but remind you about our Father in

Heaven I lift up my hands to you my

ancestors father they lifted up their

hands to you and they and they and they

prayed you the best they knew how and at

least in their hearts they thought of

your name you Hova and now I live in a

world where I can actually speak your

name Jehovah no one will persecute me no

one will burn me at a stake or put me in

prison Yehovah at least in this free

country I'm so grateful to be here and

have this freedom you have our Father in

Heaven Yehovah you are our salvation

Yehovah you are Yeshua tainu are you

schewe you are the one who we spoken in

lamentations and says has she Vania

Hovey less of an issue of ax Yehovah

returned me to you return us to you you

Hovan we will return I need your help

you have I can't do this alone

please return all mankind to that we may

return
