Dr Steve Combs Exposes Yahweh as Jupiter While Discussing John MacArthur's Use of Yahweh in LSB - theophoric names

I don't think it's any coincidence that soon after my account is approved on this site, and brother Steven brings up the Tetragrammaton in my greeting thread, that I get recommended a video featuring Dr. Steve Combs exposing the Yahweh and Jupiter connection while criticizing John MacArthur's Legacy Standard Bible. I searched this site but didn't see any posts about Dr. Steve Combs, so I though it would be good to share this video on this site to add it to the collection of research demonstrating the truth about the name Yahweh.

Here is the video:


It is amazing how God works! I've read much of the Father Jove/Jupiter/Yahweh material on this site, but Dr. Steve Combs in this video seems to do a good job keeping the issue simple and explaining clearly how this unclean name got snuck by the devil into modern corrupt "bible" versions, such as the LSB. I had never seen this video before, but I think it made it simple enough that even a hot-headed Baptist like me can grasp it in one sitting.

Of course, if Dr. Steve Combs did get anything he said wrong in the video, I would appreciate a correction on that. I will have to compare Dr. Steve Combs' evidence and conclusions against the other material exposing Yahweh on this site.

God bless in then name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Matthew H.

"Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.
Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.
And in that day shall ye say, Praise the LORD, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted.
Sing unto the LORD; for he hath done excellent things: this is known in all the earth."
Isaiah 12:2-5

Listened to 1/2 .. I fell asleep, it was ok, no red flags, but he had not gotten to the good stuff yet.
Always the problem with audio! :)
Steven,

Yeah, the actual Jupiter-Yahweh connection doesn't happen until the second half of the video. Still, I believe the information he shares is nothing new to you, but I just liked how simple it was put! I think it is helpful to share with others who may not understand much about the issue.

Plus, Steve Combs might have done more about the Jupiter-Yahweh connection, so it may be worth looking more into him to see what else he has written or other times he spoke about it.

Yes, from c. 25-28. He does a good job,

Holy Ghost righteous indignation about the LSB blasphemy.


========

The warly history could mention the earkier debate c. 1700 Reland

More on the theophoric names,

Clearer about LORD, all caps,

Speaking of simple arguments to use to prove that Jehovah is God's wonderful name (instead of Yahweh), the Theophoric names are great as well. Those names are such a simple example of the connection to JEHO-vah, it is astounding how they are completely ignored by those who stick to the name Yahweh because it is "academically" proven. A simple evidence through names like JEHO-shaphat that they are blinded to, sadly. The Theophoric names would be a good arrow to add to Steve Combs' quiver, if he continues to try and simplify this debate over God's name for people who aren't as engrossed in the research to understand.

Yes, I agree 100%.

Historically, it has been the key argument, including in the Reland papers and in Drach.

Even Nehemia Gordon does not give it full emphasis.

Thanks for sharing this!

My favorite point in this article that Dr. Combs did is the fact that Scripture itself shows that God is not hiding His name from us. The Lord does not desire His name to be hidden, He has openly declared His name to the world for centuries. It is us, mankind, that trusts our own intellect is trying to hide His name through trusting our own academic work. We need to trust in God that just like His Word, He has preserved His majestic and powerful name for us to reverence today as well. And that name is the beautiful and splendid JEHOVAH that we have come to know and love in the church purchased by the blood of His own Son.

By the way, this is the same reason why the idea that we have somehow "lost" God's Word or that we don't even know the proper Canon of Scripture is ridiculous. Once more, if we believe God's Word, then God has elevated His Word above even His own name. So the idea that He has someone allowed His perfect Word to be hidden and that it needs to be rediscovered or properly translated by the efforts of men is untenable. But then again, these positions on God's name and God's Word require faith. There is evidence, in fact a mighty mountain of it, as this website attests to, supporting our view of God's preservation of His name and Word. But for this evidence to be believed, it has to be approached with a believing and humble heart. I am sad to say that so many Christians have allowed scholars and academia to harden many of the vessels in their heart from knowing, believing, and understanding this truth. I am going to continue to pray that brothers like Steve Combs continue the fight to keep this truth alive and to awaken our brothers and sisters whose eyes have been closed by the whispers of that old serpent.
