Tetragramaton

Tetragramaton (grč. τετραγράμματον — četvoroslovac)^[1]^[2] je hebrejski teonim יהוה, obično preslovljavan na latinicu kao YHWH. To je jedno od imena nacionalnog boga Izraelita u Starom zavjetu.^[3]^[4]^[5] YHWH se koristi u akademskim studijama anglosfere, ali u upotrebi može biti i YHVH, JHVH i JHWH.^[6]^[7]

Iako je Jahve najomiljeniji među jevrejskim naučnicima i široko rasprostranjeno i prihvaćeno kao drevni izgovor tetragramatona, Jehova se još uvijek koristi u nekim prevodima Biblije. Samarićani koriste izgovor iabe. Neki izvori crkvenih otaca svjedoče za grčki izgovor iaō.^[8]
