Jah description |
---|
Jah or Yah (Hebrew: , Yah) is a short form of Yahweh (in consonantal spelling YHWH Hebrew: , called the Tetragrammaton), the proper name of God in the Hebrew Bible. * This short form of the name occurs 50 times in the text of the Hebrew Bible, of which 24 form part of the phrase "Hallelujah", which is actually a two-word phrase, not one word. * In an English-language context, the name Jah is now most commonly associated with the Rastafari. It is otherwise mostly limited to the phrase Hallelujah and theophoric names such as Elijah. * In the King James Version (1611) there is only a single instance of JAH (capitalised), in Psalm 68:4. An American Translation (1939) follows KJV in using Yah in this verse. * The conventional English pronunciation of Jah is , even though the letter J here transliterates the palatal approximant (Hebrew Yodh). The spelling Yah is designed to make the pronunciation explicit in an English-language context (see also romanization of Hebrew). |
