The Name of God (The Tetragrammaton) Appears on The Chapel Ceiling

Taken in the Chapel of Nicholas at Carisbrooke Castle

 

Tetragrammaton (Definition)

The Hebrew name of God transliterated in four letters as YHWH or JHVH and articulated as Yahweh or Jehovah. (dictionary.com)

 

 

The Tetragrammaton appears repeatedly in the oldest available manuscripts of the Bible. Some translations have substituted that name with God and Lord. Whereas God and Lord are titles, Jehovah is God's personal name. The meaning of his name, Jehovah, has real significance. It sheds light on an aspect of his personality. It indicates that he has a purpose and that he will do whatever is required to fulfil that purpose. For example, he has purposed to make the whole Earth a paradise to live in.

(Psalm 37:11)

But the meek will possess the earth, And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.
