Yahweh

As an extra disclaimer: I do not intend to insult God or religion here. I think there is nothing wrong with religion or the idea of a God in general. What I want to prove here is that the ruling aristocrats who have instituted religions — all religions, not just Judaism or monotheism — never believed in any religion, or in any god. To them, religions have always been mere tools, just like all other human institutions. So spookery is not a war of one religion against another, but a war by the most powerful humans against everyone else.

The Yahweh puns in a nutshell

All attributes of a deity are typically all similar to that deity’s name. This seems to be true for all cultures. I think this was a form of ancient poetry: At some point, early humans started worshiping abstract concepts as deities, like “life”, “death”, “fertility”. Since there was no way to depict the underlying abstract concepts, they chose symbols & attributes from words that were similar. Later, corrupt rulers promoted those deities whose names were by coincidence also similar to some corrupt concept, like “secrecy” or “disguise”.

At first glance, Yahweh is not such a deity created from poetry: He is a God without visible representation. He is a monotheistic God without special attributes that would separate him from other gods. And his name is unique, composed only of the vowel-type letters Y / H / W. The only word that is similar to his name is the Hebrew word for “to be”, as explained in the story: “I am who I am”.

But when we look closer, we can see that Yahweh has in fact many visible incarnations & attributes: In the Bible, Yahweh’s physical incarnations are the chest, the tent, the pillars of clouds & flame, and the burning bush. For each & every one of these, there exists a word that is similar to “Yahweh”. Also, even though Yahweh is a universal deity, his Biblical narrative has several recurring themes & aspects: He is a loving God, a punishing God, a creator God, a bestower of gifts, and he is the only God. For each & every one of these, there again exists a word that is similar to “Yahweh”. Most importantly, Yahweh has no depiction, i.e. he is “hidden”. Even here, there exists a word for “hidden” that is similar to “Yahweh”.

So it seems that Yahweh indeed originated from ancient poetry, like all other gods, and was perhaps elevated from earlier polytheistic worship among the large pantheon of Canaanite gods.

As for word similarity: Yahweh’s name is written yhwh, so one could think that the ancients considered only words with these letters similar. However, in practice all these letters were interchangeable with others: He with Ḥet, Waw with Bet, and Yod with any vowel. The ancient speakers would therefore consider many words to be “somewhat” similar to Yahweh. These are the words that were used for his symbols & attributes, to emphasize his core concepts through the similarity.

Most of these symbols & attributes are confirmed by the Biblical story of Yahweh. Some others are possible spook puns, like “hidden-ness” or “veiling”.

• Yahweh wasn’t created but simply is there, because hyh means “to be”. In Aramaic, yhwˀ means “he was there”, which fits yhwh even better, as the Hebrew suffix He often corresponds to Aramaic ˀAleph. 🡻
• Yahweh created heaven & earth, because hwy means “creating” (causative of “to be”).
• Yahweh bestows gifts on humans, because yhbˀ means “giving” & “granting”.
• Yahweh is the Jewish name for God, because the name YHWH is just one letter D short of יהודה yhwdh Judah.
• Yahweh is a monotheistic god, because ˀḥh / ˀḥy / ˀḥwy means “joined” & “united”.
• Yahweh is a monotheistic god, perhaps also because ˀyhw means “he himself”, so there is only God himself.
• Unlike all other gods, Yahweh cannot be depicted, probably because yḥbh means “hidden”. 🡻
• Yahweh is generally hidden from direct sight most of the time, because yḥbh means “hidden”. The spooks also like this concept. 🡻
• Yahweh is identified with Elohim, because Jehovah puns with yḥbh for “hidden”, and Elohim puns with ˁlwm which also means “hidden”. The 2 names are synonyms in this regard. (For the same synonym reason, Ra is identified with Horus, Atum & Aten.)
• Yahweh occasionally shows himself, because yḥwh means “show” & “manifestation”. The spooks like this concept as well, but only “show” us false forms.
• Yahweh resides in a chest and in a tent, because Arabic ḫbˀ means “box” & “tent”. It also means “veil”, another spooky concept. 🡻
• Yahweh’s people in the story are tribes who live in tents, because Hebrew ḥwh means “tent”, and ḥwh means “tribe”.
• Yahweh is love according to some verses, because yḥbh means “love”. 🡻
• Yahweh is love according to some verses, also because yˀhbh means “love”. 🡻
• Yahweh regularly punishes for sins, because ḥwb means “guilt” & “punishment for sin”. The same word also means “financial debt”, another popular spook concept. 🡻
• Yahweh appears as a pillar of clouds, because ˁybˀ means “thick cloud”.
• Yahweh appears as a pillar of fire, because ḥbh / ḥbb means “burning”. 🡻
• Yahweh appears as a burning bush, because ḥbh / ḥbb means “burning”. 🡻
• Yahweh appears as a burning bush, because ḥbb means “burnable brushwood”. 🡻
• Yahweh appears specifically as a thorn bush, because hwbˀy means “thorn” & “desert plant”. 🡻
• Yahweh is a spook symbol for the aristocracy, because yḥbh means “esteemed” & “privileged”. 🡻
• The spooks may be so vain that they see God as an exaggerated version of themselves, because hwˀy / hbˀy means “vanity” & “exaggeration”.

The combined name YHWH-Elohim then puns with “hidden rulers” and “banker lords”.

Semitic hyh for “to be”

The most common explanation for Yahweh / Jehovah is that the name is somehow related to the Exodus 3:14 phrase אהיה אשר אהיה ˀhyh ˀšr ˀhyh for “I am who I am”, and thus to the verb היה hyh which means “to be” or “to become”.

The idea here could be that an all-powerful omnipresent spiritual being is not created by anything else, but “is” simply there.

And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

wyˀmr ˀlhym ˀl mšh ˀhyh ˀšr ˀhyh wyˀmr kh tˀmr lbny yšrˀl ˀhyh šlḥny ˀlykm

ויאמר אלהים אל משה אהיה אשר אהיה ויאמר כה תאמר לבני ישראל אהיה שלחני אליכם

Exodus 3:14

That verb meaning “to be” has many different grammar forms & spellings such as היה hyh / יהי yhy / יהיה yhyh / והיה whyh / יהוא yhwˀ / הוה hwh. A related form, indexed separately, is הוא hwˀ / הוה hwh for “to become”.

None of the occurrences quite matches YHWH. However, since the form יהוא yhwˀ occurs regularly, that’s maybe because later editors censored all occurrences of a mere grammatical yhwh into yhwˀ, switching the suffix He for Aleph. Apart from that, the verb “to be” can occur with practically any combination of vowels around an H, so the pun is valid.

Semitic ḥbh for “hidden”

We know how much the spook aristocrats are obsessed with their identity as “hidden rulers”, because almost all spook names mean either “hidden” or “ruler” or “hidden ruler”.

We also know that Elohim means “rulers”. To make Yahweh Elohim a “hidden ruler” pun, YHWH would need to pun with a word meaning “hidden”. And indeed it does.

• In Biblical & modern Hebrew, both W and B can denote a V sound. Examples are names like Eve or David. This is a general rule: Bet ≈ Waw
• We also know that He and Ḥet were often interchangeable in different dialects. We even know from transcribed names such as Ieoud for yḥd that Ḥet was sometimes almost silent, like He. That’s another rule: He ≈ Ḥet
• We could thus imagine a pun where the W in YHWH (pronounced V) was swapped for B (also pronounced V), and the He was swapped for Ḥet. The resulting word would be יחבה yḥbh, pronounced like Yahveh with a scratchy H.
• And indeed, this is a grammar form for the fairly common verb חבה ḥbh chavah meaning “hidden”.
• Amazingly, it’s even a Biblical name: Jehubbah, also meaning “hidden”. Suspiciously, it was marked up with Qere & Ketiv later, to make people read it as Vehubbah. Later spooks probably found the clue too obvious.

Arabic ḫbˀ for “box”, “tent”, “veil”

The Semitic root ḥbˀ for “hiding” (written with Ḥet) surfaces in Arabic as ḫbˀ for “hiding”, “box”, “tent”, “veil” (written with Ḫa). Hebrew doesn’t have the letter Ḫa, so this is clearly the same word, with derived meanings. There’s also an Arabic grammar form yḫbˀ for “hiding”, which is again similar to Jehubbah / Jehovah.

As confirmation for this pun, we have the strange in-story feature of God residing in a literal box, the Arc of the Covenant, and also in a literal tent, the Tent of Meeting. Arabic ḫbˀ is a synonym for both “box” & “tent”, and also puns with Jehovah.

As for the “veil”, this is obviously just a spooky pun, and not a feature of an actual God. The ancient spooks often used such terms for “veiling”, to describe their collective “masking”. Arabic ḫbˀ has also derivations that mean “cunning” & “cheating”, so the spooks were aware that their entire act was malicious.

Semitic ḥbh / ˀhbh for “love”

God is often associated with love. There are even Bible verses claiming that God is love: 1 John 4:8, 1 John 4:16. And indeed, this kind of God is one that’s worth believing in.

But for the spooks, this may merely mean that the name Jehova also puns with ḥwb / ḥbb for “love”. That word is sometimes even officially linked to ḥbh for “hidden”, because “love” is an invisible thing that is “hidden inside”. There’s also another explanation via “burning” emotion though.

Jehova also puns with a second word for “love”: ˀhb / ˀhbh. It is often used in the Bible, für emotinal as well as sexual love. Dictionaries do not link it to the first word ḥwb, but since He and Ḥet are interchangeable, I’d say they’re related. (It is the official explanation for captain Ahab’s name, though not for king Ahab.)

All these forms can be Y-prefixed, creating Yahweh-like grammar forms such as yḥbh or yˀhbh.

Semitic ḥbh for “esteem” & “privilege”

Sometimes in the encrypted Biblical texts, the word Yahweh seems to encrypt a synonym for “aristocrats”. I think that word is yḥbh, meaning “esteemed” or “privileged”.

It is the same word as ḥbh for “love”, which can also mean “esteem”, “honour”, “favour”, “privilege”, which are more formal forms of social affection. As a verb it can also be Y-prefixed to yḥbh, similar to yhwh “Yahweh”. Without vowel dots or context, it is indistinguishable from “love”.

Semitic ḥwb for “punishment” & “financial debt”

Very often in the Old Testament, God as Yahweh is not exactly all loving, but deals out severe punishment for perceived misbehavior. (The God of the New Testament is depicted like this less often.) This punishment can be explained as a pun too, because the root חוב ḥwb means “sin”, “guilt”, “punishment”, and even “financial debt”.

As an aside, since El means “lord” & “god”, and Baal also means “lord” & “god”, it’s interesting to note that בעל חובה bˁl-ḥwbh baal-huvvah means “creditor”, literally “owner of debt”. For the spook overlords, Jehovah-Elohim may even be a synonym pun of sorts, with Baali-Jehuvvim meaning “creditors”, which would be… them. In the shortened form bˁl-ḥwb, the word is still used today, and can mean both “creditor” & “debtor”. Modern meaning seems to have been shifted more towards “debtor”.

The creditor owns the pledge.

Semitic ḥbb for “burnable brushwood”

The verse Exodus 3:2 tells the odd story of Moses hearing God from a “burning bush”. The explanation may also be a pun with the word Jehovah: The term ḥbh / ḥbb for “love” also means “burning” (perhaps linked via “hot” emotion), and is specifically used for small bushes & burnable brushwood that you can use to start a fire. In this sense, Jehova is a homonym to a synonym for “burning bush”.

(The burning bush verse in its entirety may tell a totally unrelated story, but I haven’t decrypted it yet.)

Semitic hwbˀy for “thorn bush”, ḥwḥ for “thorn”

The specific burning bush of God may even be a thorn bush, because hwbˀy means “thorn” & “desert plant”, and ḥwḥ means “thorn”.
