Add to that ... Every place in your English Bible where it says LORD in capital letters in the Old Testament it is the translation for יהוה in Hebrew.That is God's name in the Bible.

At first glance it doesn't look like much since as Americans most of can't read Hebrew

So lets look at it as it would have been written before letters actually formed and people wrote in pictographs.

The image below is Hebrew as it was first written in pictures. Hebrew is read right to left instead of left to right .

first letter is a yod - find the Y and then look at the picture farthest to the left ... arm/hand
second letter is a hey - find the H and look at the picture farthest to the left - man with his arms raised it means look (also means breath and to reveal )
third letter is a vav(modern) or waw(ancient) - find the W and look at the picture - it's a nail
fourth letter is a hey - H - man with his arms raised and means look


So now to put it together as one would have seen it in the original picture --- God's name pictured ---> hand --> look ---> nail ----> look .... even the NAME points to Messiah Image and video hosting by TinyPic
