| On the subject of Tetragrammaton, the god Yahweh does seem to be traced to the Midian tribe, which resided in the mountains to which Moses allegedly led his people from Egypt.
The Midians did worship multiple Gods. So maybe YHWH could be a series of four letters, each representing one of the multiple deities of the Midian tribe, or the geographical neighbors, the Kenites?
That would be really interesting. It could mean that the ancient Hebrew God was just a string of symbolic ideas or concepts, since that seems to be what polytheistic deities represent.
This would be so much easier to research if I knew Hebrew. |
