The name "Moses" strikes us as the identity of one of the greatest men in ancient monotheistic history. His name is known by little children in the story of the mother and father who hid their little son to keep the wicked Pharoah from having him aborted, ...killed at birth. They hid him in the flags (bulrushes). Now the name flags is another name for papyrus pap-yrus (pap-irus) with the "us" having some connection with that which grows in water.
As can be seen to the left, the Egyptian word for water is "mu." And when the daughter of Pharoah took Moses out of the water she called him in the Egyptian language "MOUSES" or as later Grecianized "Moseus" and finally as "Moses." We are told by ancient authorities that the name Moses means just as I have described with "Mo" meaning "water" and "Uses" meaning he who is saved by water. Moseus is more accurately Museus when we convert the Mo back to Mu. If we drop the "M" and replace this with a "J" we would have Juseus and this is remarkable since Moses prophecied that another would come like unto him and he the people were to follow or be destroyed. We can see that "Mo" is accurately taken from the Egyptian "mu" and we shall make all the authorities who claim expertise in ancient linguistics to deny that "uses" is the correct ancient articulation of "ses or sus." I will here quote one of the recognized ancient authorities on the antiquity of the Jews:
"Hereupon it was that Thermuthis (Pharoah's daughter) imposed this name Mouses upon him, from what had happened when he was put into the river; for the Egyptians call water by the name of Mo, and such as are saved out of it, by the name of Uses: so by putting these two words together, they imposed this name upon him. And he was, by the confession of all, according to God's prediction, as well for his greatness of mind as for his contempt of difficulties, the best of all the Hebrews, for Abraham was his ancestor of the seventh generation" (Josephus, Antiquities, Book II, Chapter 9, Paragraph 6).
It it obvious to any person of rational mind that we have here a great testimony to the name of Jesus that it did not derive from the name of any pagan god but its parts and its meaning come from a far ancient antiquity. When it is properly understood that "Je" is the abbreviation of "YEH" or "JEH" the sacred name of God at the burning bush, and that "Uses or Usus" (these are the same), we have in the name of Jesus a very powerful new identity as the "GOD WHO SAVES BY WATER." So the name of Jesus in a shortened meaning would be simply Saviour! In the very name of Jesus we have the authority of our New Testament water baptism in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38).
When any apostate comes saying they have proof that the name of Jesus comes from Zeus or Iesa or some other false god or goddess, they are spreading lies and hate against the name of our Great Saviour. These apostates who have recanted the name of Jesus claiming it is a false name must repent and do their first works over or perish. And if they refuse to repent, then they will be damned! Any apostate who has called the name of Jesus the "pig god" name and or has confessed or taught that it comes from the Latin word for pig, is damned! If you deny the name of Jesus you will be denied in heaven. The name of Moses in its ancient antiquity is so connected to the name of Jesus that anyone who can receive the revelation will now know why Moses added "Yeh" or "Jeh" to the name of Oshea and thus signify that when the Messiah came he would be the one who God would raise up and to him would the people gather. It would not be Mouses who would save them this time but Jehuses (Jesus-pronounced the same). And whosoever received not this prophet would be destroyed from among the people (Acts 3:22-23). It is not enough that you receive the person of the Saviour, YOU MUST BELIEVE UPON AND RECEIVE HIS NAME! And that name is "Jesus!" If you know not the revelation of that name YOU CANNOT BELIEVE UPON IT! If you BELIEVE UPON IT and do not know the revelation of it, you can still be saved!
Iah or Yah
Yah is not the name of God I do not care if it is in Psalms 68:4 as Jah. David did not write Chapter 68. It was written many years after David and perhaps after the return from the exile. Verse 29 speaks of the Temple, something not built until after David's death.
In Psalms 68:4, Jah is said to "ride upon the heavens." This language is spoke after the manner of the moon and the sun which are said to ride across the heavens in their daily circuit. We are unsure how this corruption came into the Word of God but it is not verified in any other text of Scripture. This text is not a revelation text. If the name is to be authentic then it MUST be corrected to "JEH" as Moses fixed this very name to Oshea in Numbers 13:16. In no manner of form can "Jah" be a correct name form. All the ridiculous modifications using second and third person plural corruptions cannot be used to validate this error. God, whose name is "JEH" when fixed to the name of Oshea can never be made into the Egyptian moon god whose name was "Iah or Yah" which many Yahwist claim is the correct rendering of "Jah."
There are other false words put into the Bible to deceive and to substitute truth with falsehood. Even the name of Moses is different than that which it was in the original. Modern forms of the name of Moses further detach and remove it from any connection or identity with its ancient pronunciation. The pagan name of "Yah" is the Egyptian moon god and all the Jewish scribes and Law-keeping reprobates will never overcome that fact.
While many think the name "Iah or Yah" is a sacred name for the true God, the history of it goes back to Egypt. It is not the name of God and it is not an abbreviation of the alleged name Yahweh. We will provide more on this in the links below:
"Yah" is the Egyptian moon god and "Shu(a)" is the Egyptian sky god: http://www.ancient-egypt.org/

Yah is also the goat god with whom also is associated the moon. There is now available a great amount of information on Yah, Yahweh, Jehovah, Yahshua, and many other false names being used for God and Jesus. Do not be deceived by the modern law-keepers and sacred-name Hebrew-roots movements that are full of heresy and who deny the Lord Jesus Christ.
"Yah" is the Egyptian name of Toth as the moon god. And "Shu" is the Egyptian sky god of the heavens. Scroll down the link above until you come to the subject title "The Lunar God." There you will find the name of the moon god as "Iah" which is the same as "Yah." When you glue Yah & Shu together to form "Yahshua" you have an Egyptian moon god as the sky or heaven god. I am shocked and amazed that such names are given to Jesus Messiah without regard to a shred of research. The name of Jesus is not "Yahshu or Yahshua" and I condemn all who use it for the Saviour!
Ehyeh
The sacred name "Ehyeh" (pronounced i-jeh, ieh, or as in the KJV iah or "i-ah") is the first person singular name of God. It is to be specifically understood that the letters "iah" that are attached to names in the Old Testament is an INCORRECT articulation of the sacred name EHYEH, EH=i and YEH=ah to form "iah." The letters "iah" do not stand alone as the letters of a different pronunciation for a different name like "Yah." Ehyeh is not contracted to form "Yah" therefore "iah" as the articulation of EHYEH is correct. Rather then putting false phonetics to EHYEH as "iah" the translators and scholars should have retained "ieh" or "Jeh" corrrectly from EHYEH!
Ehyeh is the first person singular ancient name of God first revealed to Moses at the burning bush. Prior to that time this name was not known or revealed (Exodus 6:3 where the tetragrammaton and "Jehovah" are interpolated incorrectly).
The three names by which God was known before this sacred name was revealed were "Elohim (God), Adonai (LORD), and Elshaddai (God Almighty). The Supreme being is called God, LORD God, and Elshaddai or Almighty God. At the burning bush a new covenant name was revealed. That name is EHYEH! Ehyeh is translated for its meaning "I AM that I AM" rather than the true name being in translations. Then I AM that I AM is further interpreted to mean "self existent, or the eternal one." Lying Yahwist remove I AM that I AM and interpolate the tetragrammatons "YHVH or YHWH" and make this into "Yahweh, Yahuweh, Yahshua, and Jehovah". They totally ignore the sacred name of "HYH" or "Ehyeh" with its proper vowels, because the true sacred name of God plays no role in the fraud and confusion they will afterward bring upon the name of God.
"And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty (Elshaddai), but by my name EHYEH I was not known unto them" (BJV EXO 6:3).
Some claim this scripture is a question and God was telling Moses that Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob knew Him as EHYEH! Some claim that EHYEH here should be changed to YHWH or JHVH and that this means Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob knew and pronounced the names "Yahweh or Jehovah." This is false! Why would God say he appeared to them as Elshaddai if he had appeared to them as Yahweh or Jehovah? God said he appeared as Elshaddi and said he WAS NOT KNOWN by the name Moses had just received. This text is not a question. It is a declarative statement attesting that Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob had not known God by the new name Moses had just received.
Now some claim that the sacred name of "EHYEH" or in the Yahwist cases "Yahweh" or some other guess name like Jehovah, was known by Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. This begs the question then why God said he appeared unto them by the name of God Almighty (Elshaddai in Hebrew)? Why did God not skip this "God Almighty" name of ELSHADDAI stuff and just say he was known to them by the name of Yahweh, Jehovah, Yahshua, or some one of the other guess names? He did not because he had not revealed his new Covenant sacred name to them. Why did he say he appeared unto them by the name of Elshaddai if he had in fact already revealed the alleged names "Yahweh, Jehovah, or Yahshua" unto them? He did not because prior to the burning bush the sacred name of "Ehyeh" had NOT BEEN REVEALED to Abraham, Isaac, or Jacob. And, no one knew him as Jehovah, Yahweh, or Yahshua. In fact the sacred name "Ehyeh" was not known by anyone all the way back to Adam.
I know right well of the claim by Yahwist of the interpolation of the word "ADONAI/LORD" into the text beginning in Genesis 2 and afterward, that some claim was placed in the scripture to remove YHWH. They claim YHWH was in the original text and have subsequently removed ADONAI/LORD and inserted Yahweh in an attempt to correct the the alleged interpolations. Then, with the YHWH interpolated in the place of ADONAI/LORD they turn and use these alleged corrected evidences in an attempt to prove that Moses DID NOT receive the sacred name EHYEH in Exodus 3:14 for the first time. They go back to Genesis 2 and claim it was known there. Such interpolations and subsequent manipulations are fraud and fraud compounded. The fact is that Abraham called God "my Lord" or "my Adonai" (Strongs #113 & #136). If the word "Lord" appears in the sacred text prior to the encounter of Moses with God at the burning bush and the revelation of Ehyeh as the progressive revelation of his name, then "Lord" should be translated from "Adonai" and its rood "Adown" and NOT removed. "LORD" (in all caps), placed in the text where Adonai existed and later replaced by the tetragrammaton and at last corrected by the Yahwist to insert "Yahweh" is a FRAUD!
