which is in line with the common practice of the time to substitute the name Yahweh with Adonai or Kyrios

ofcourse he is

@TradChad yes of course

Right, but why would The Lord allow it to persist in scripture? Also I found what I wanted to refer to earlier - It is believed that Christ did actually use the Tetragrammaton even as an Arabic speaker as seen in John 8:58 .

**John 8:58 - New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)**

```Dust


<58> Jesus said to them, "Very truly, I tell you, before Abraham was, I am." ```

turia should stop thinking such heresies

@agag Turia said he takes the entire bible literally and that christ is not all knowing

sure sucks when people can read huh

One particular incident, as I have stated before, was when he referred to himself as I am. Iam = yahweh=Lord

Why does Jesus always say "Very truly,"

best to just misquote them and falsely equate them to random things

totally isnt what catholics usually do to shame people

@Turia do you take the entire bible literally

@Supreme Leader Kim 🧧 it's a translation of amen

in KJV it'd be verily

In Gospel of John everytime Jesus speaks he says Very truly,

oh ok

It's a difficult issue that is posed too, because the "YHWH" is Hebrew and most of the NT is Greek

John 8:58

**John 8:58 - Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)**

```Dust


<58> Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say to you, before Abraham was made, I am. ```

bro, if someone in a literal history book says hey here's a parable

John 8:58 NIV

**John 8:58 - New International Version (NIV)**

```Dust


<58> "Very truly I tell you," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!" ```

DRA is so based

Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya, he has a Phd in religious studies. I believe he studied with catholics for a while as well on bibilical hermeneutics and interpretation. You might say he is a little biased given his religious background, but his religious academic background is pretty hard to dismiss. Plus the guy spends hours talking about sexual and liberal degeneracy and atheism in the modern world, so I can't just call him a liberal academic. @Immensa Despite the name he is actually a white guy of Spanish and English descent.

Yeah, its a way that greek functions and modifies language

John 8:58 KJV

**John 8:58 - King James Version (KJV)**

```Dust


<58> Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. ```

then the parable is not literal

@Turia Jesus did not say here is a parable

but the book is still literal

Mark 13:32 is not a parable

**Mark 13:32 - Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)**

```Dust


<32> But of that day or hour no man knoweth, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father. ```

then he's being literal

@agag is Mark 13:32 a parable

**Mark 13:32 - Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)**

```Dust


<32> But of that day or hour no man knoweth, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father. ```

you're the one calling him a liar

how do you know what christ knew while on earth

Ok so do you believe jesus is all knowing or not @Turia

I dont get it why not just reference the original bible smh

agnostic here
