Iehovaとは 意味・読み方・使い方

語源

Traditional reading of the Biblical Biblical Hebrew יהוה‎ (IHVH), based on the qeri perpetuum found in the Masoretic text (ca. 7th to 10th century). Attested in print from at least 1514, but used in the 15th century (by Nicholas of Cusa, d. 1464.[1]). The transcription has earlier (medieval, かつ even ancient) origins; found as Johouah (かつ variants) in Raymond Martin (1278). The Greek equivalent ΙΕΗΩΟΥΑ is found even in Late Antiquity, in the Pistis Sophia (perhaps a 2nd century text, extant in 5th または 6th century manuscripts).
