        This collection of the Eth CEPHER (pronounced et' sef’-er) (Divine Book) sets forth the Name of and
        makes references to our Creator as He identified Himself to us in His Holy Word, and restores the names
        of people and places found in the original Ivriyt (Hebrew) tongue which have been transliterated into
        English.

        We make mention herein of the name YAHUAH (הוהי  .)The name הוהי is a name that went unmentioned
        for over two millennia.  The construct of these four letters is one that is common in modern Hebrew,
        where the yod is pronounced with the vowel ah, creating YAH (הי).  This name stands alone as Yah 45
        times in the Tanakh, Ex 15:2; Ex 17:16; Ps 68:4; Ps 68:18; Ps 77:11; Ps 89:8; Ps 94:7; Ps 94:12; Ps 102:18;
        Ps 104:35; Ps 105:45; Ps 106:1; Ps 106:48; Ps 111:1; Ps 112:1; Ps 113:1; Ps 113:9; Ps 115:17; Ps 115:18;
        Ps 116:19; Ps 117:2; Ps 118:5; Ps 118:14; Ps 118:17; Ps 118:18; Ps 118:19; Ps 122:4; Ps 130:3; Ps 135:1;
        Ps 135:3; Ps 135:4; Ps 135:21; Ps 146:1; Ps 146:10; Ps 147:1; Ps 147:20; Ps 148:1; Ps 148:14; Ps 149:1;
        Ps 149:9; Ps 150:1; Ps 150:6; Isa 12:2; Isa 26:4; Isa 38:11.

        In Shemoth (Exodus) 3:14, ELOHIYM gives his name as היהא רשׁא היהא (EHAYAH ASHER EHAYAH),
        translated most basically as "I AM that I AM" (or "I will be that I will be"). הוהי  then establishes the
        vocalization YAHUAH where the vav is used in its vowel form as an “u” (oo), rather than declaring the
        vowel as a jot beside the consonant heh.  So the yod is pronounced “yah” and the heh is pronounced with
        the vav as “hu” (hoo).  This is easily recognized when you consider the transliterated name of many of
        the prophets, such as Yesha`yahu, Yirmeyahu and so on.  The tetragrammaton concludes with a single
        heh, which carries the same jot as the yod, that is the mark ah.  Therefore, the pronunciation is yah-hoo-
        ah, or, YAHUAH.

        To ignore the ha at the end is a disservice (as in the pronunciation Yahweh), as the ha is the breath of the
        Father within His own name.  This claim is supported with the following example concerning the change
        of the name of Avram to Avraham.

               Neither shall your תא eth-name anymore be called Avram, but your name shall be Avraham; for a
               father of many nations have I made you.
                                                                   Bere’shiyth (Genesis) 17:5

        Here, the ha is breathed into Avram, and the covenant is expressed as an everlasting covenant.  The
        breath of life was then poured into Avraham’s wife Sarai, who became Sarah, Bere’shiyth (Genesis) 17:15.
        For this reason, pronunciations such as Yahweh, Yahveh, Yahvoh, or Yahvah are not widely disparate:
        Yahueh instead of Yahuah; Yahveh instead of Yahueh, however YAHUAH is the more accurate.

        We have set forth the name of Messiah as YAHUSHA (עשׁוהי), partly because this name is identical to the
        name we have set forth in Bemidbar (Numbers) describing the Ephrayimiy Husha, the son of Nun, who
        was selected as one of the twelve to spy out the Promised Land during the beginning of the Exodus.

               Bemidbar (Numbers) 13:8 Of the tribe of Ephrayim, Husha the son of Nun.
               Bemidbar (Numbers) 13:16 These are the names of the men which Mosheh sent to spy out תא eth-
               the land. And Mosheh called Husha the son of Nun Yahusha.

        In the Masoretic text, you see the name Yahusha spelled in the Hebrew yod (י) heh (ה) vav (ו) shin (ש)
        vav (ו) ayin (ע) or Yahushua. Therefore, the assumption is that Mosheh added not only YAH – the name
