   are conceded to be certainly known.]

   revealed to the Jews as their covenant God or Sovereign of
   the theocracy; the ``ineffable name'' of the Supreme Being,
   which was not pronounced by the Jews.

Jahve \Jah"ve\, etc.
   A modern transliteration of the Hebrew word translated
   {Jehovah} in the Bible; -- used by some critics to
