Moses is the author of the Book of Genesis. Jesus referred to Moses as the author. Moses quite likely used history that had been recorded by Adam or others.
God's name Yahveh appears in Genesis. God's name Yahveh was first revealed to Moses. This is what I understand. Are there any objections to this that you have?
Shalom.

Yeah, my objection is that the Name is not properly separated in the Masoretic text in many places. This can be seen in how those who rendered the Septuagint were reading the Hebrew text in their day: for in their day the Hebrew text was not separated but written in "scriptura continua" much like the Koine Greek Uncial texts. The waw-vav was not only used in the construction of words and as a particle but also was used as a word separator. When the Masoretes separated the text they switched over to the sofits or final form letters, (thus eliminating the need for a word separator in many places), but when it came to the earliest portion of the Torah, such as Genesis, they did not follow the Septuagint way of reading the Hebrew text: how therefore do you know they properly separated the text?
You must realize that this has been separated for you in the Masoretic Text: יהוהאלהים
Possibilities:
1) יהוה אלהים
2) יה והאלהים
3) יה ו האלהים
1) YHWH Elohim (יהוה אלהים)
2) Yah and the Elohim (יה והאלהים)
3) Yah the Elohim (יה ו האלהים)
All things were created through Yah Elohim, (who is ever in the bosom of the Father).
Shalom.
I am sorry but you are incorrect. God's name is Yahveh.
Yahveh Eloheinu means Yahveh our God.
Shalom.
Jacob
Wouldn't that make him the editor, rather than the author?Moses is the author of the Book of Genesis. Jesus referred to Moses as the author. Moses quite likely used history that had been recorded by Adam or others.
I am sorry but you are disrespectfully adding Masorete-pointed vowel sounds and a Germanic-Yiddish "V" sound to the Name of the Father even after you have been shown elsewhere that what you are doing is error. You are teaching blasphemy while imagining in the machinations of your vain imagination that you are studying to become a Rabbi and can also become the President of the United States of America one day. Happy New Year, Mr. Rabbi President. :doh:
Shalom.
I do not observe the New Year. I have been called a Rabbi. I am not the President.
I am not German.
Hebrew does not have vowels for letters. However, though God's name does not have vowels, it can be pronounced as Yahveh. The Vav is from the Torah and is in Modern Hebrew as well. I have no idea what you mean by blasphemy, nor how to help you with these kinds of thoughts that you have.
Anyone who was born in the United States of America as a citizen can become The President of the United States of America. So far this has only been men. I believe it makes sense that a man would become The President of the United States of America, and not a woman. Can we understand this from the Constitution? Was this understood in the day or time in which the Constitution was written?
My Rabbi gave me an assignment toward becoming a Rabbi.
I do not know what you mean by to the Name of the Father.
I do not know what a Masorete- pointed vowel sound is. I do not know what a Germanic-Yiddish "V" sound is.
Shalom.

You have stated that you have a Rabbi. No doubt he teaches you what you have posted here concerning the name of the Father. No doubt the "V" sound did not exist in ancient times the way it is pronounced in Yiddish, (which is a mixture of languages including Germanic dialects). Moreover you have indeed added vowel sounds to the name of the Father: it is right there in what you post all day every day, and it is error because you and your Rabbi do not understand the name of the Father from the texts in which it is expounded.
EXODUS 3:14 - EHYAH ESHER EHYAH (אהיה אשר אהיה)
1) "I AM WHO I AM"
2) "I SHALL BE WHO I SHALL BE"
3) "I AM WHO I SHALL BE" (because He does not change)
4) "I SHALL BE WHO I AM" (because He does not change)
Hey-Yod-Hey (היה)
1) "to be", "to exist" - present
2) "shall be", "will be", "to come (come to be, come to pass)" - future
Hey-Waw-Hey (הוה)
1) "to be", "to exist" - present
2) "to have existed", "came(to pass, came to be)", "was" - past
YHWH (יהוה) - "He who was [and] who is [and] who is to come"
Rev 1:4, Rev 1:8, Rev 4:8, Rev 11:17
I do not know why you refer to a name of a Father.
:doh: Deuteronomy 32:6 (and many more passages).
God certainly has a name. It is Yahveh. And God is our Father. God is the Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, His Only Begotten Son.
Shalom.
Jacob
Was the account of Genesis through the flood told to Abram by Noah and Shem?Shalom.
Today is Sheni, 10-14. It is Yom, Day. The Jewish Calendar Day ends with and at sundown.
What do you know about The Book of Genesis? Did Moses write The Book of Genesis? Was it written before Moses? The events of Genesis are before Moses' time.
Shalom.

Wrong kind of stoning: I thought you did not take such things literally.
Shame, shame.
Well I do take these actors as literal men play acting, no shame in that.
