Shlama Pastor Henry,
Would that be "Shamasha" too? 'Pastor' in Syriac/Aramaic, I mean?
First, welcome to Peshitta.org Forum!
It's really great to have another member of The Assyrian Church of the East on the Board!
I thought that your post/article was very well done!
I also thought that it puts an end to the (so-called) "Sacred Name Movement" using "Yah-Shua" as Yeshua's "real name"??????
Yes, I would agree that 'Yah' is an abbreviation (spelling?) of God's Name, but I think to FORCE people to say "Yahshua" is put forth by people who neither understand Hebrew, nor Aramaic.
And as you know, the two languages are very, very similar, and really I feel that Hebrew is 'a descendant' language, of Aramaic.
I can't tell you how much that "the Sacred Name" people have bugged me in the past.
Thanks for explaining to us the passage from Exodus 3:13-15!
And again, welcome to Peshitta.org Forum!
