[1] The ancient Hebrew text letter symbols were all consonants. The written words did not include vowels and this table follows the same form. Hebrew is read from right to left. The Hebrew form given includes a transliteration into English letters. Refer to Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance or other reference works for additional or more precise properties.

[3] See Jehovah; also havah, meaning to breathe or to be (Strong’s #1933).
[4] The Hebrew word “karath” is translated as “cut” in many places and as “made” in a few places including Genesis 15:18. It is related to “beriyth” (#1285) in the sense of cutting, covenants, and passage. See also Jeremiah 34:18-20; Exodus 14:22; Zechariah 14:3-5; Luke 23:45; Hebrews 10:19-20; Alma 46:21-22; Hebrews 4:12; D&C 6:2; D&C 85:9.
[5] Elohim is not an English word but is often used and spelled this way in an English context. In the Old Testament the names of Elohim and Jehovah are sometimes used interchangeably emphasizing their oneness. In the restored Church of Jesus Christ, Elohim is often used as one of the name-titles of the Father, and Jehovah as one of the name-titles of the Son.
[6] Elohim is the word that is translated as God in Genesis 1:1 and 1:27. SeeTPJS 348-349, 372-373.
[7] The consonants YHWH (The Tetragrammaton) represent one of the names of deity. The original vowels and pronunciation are unknown. The Hebrews often used the word Adonay (or Adonai) as a substitute and after many centuries the vowels from Adonay were inserted into YHWH in the Masoretic (Hewrew) text. Subsequent transliteration resulted in the word/name Jehovah. Most scholars think that the original word/name represented by YHWH should be pronounced as Yah-weh. Ya-ho-vah (Ya-ho-wah) is one of many other possibilities.
[8] See Exodus 3:14; John 8:56-59, John 18:3-6; D&C 38:1-4, D&C 68:6; D&C 136:21-22.
[9] Jehoseph (#3084) is the fuller form of the name Joseph.
[10] The original name was Oshea, which was changed to Jehoshua by Moses (Numbers 13:16). Joshua is the form that is usually used. See Jesus in the “AMK Greek Keyword Translation Table.”

[12] Bowls and spoons were part of ancient Egyptian and Israelite temple equipment used in connection with various offerings, including frankincense. The Hebrew “kap” meaning hollow of the hand is sometimes translated as incense dish. There have been archaeological discoveries of stone bowls with a hand carved at the base so that the vessel resembles a cupped palm. Such offering devices may have been symbolic of readiness to give to, and receive from, the Lord. See Exodus 25:29-30; Numbers 7:86; Leviticus 16:12-13; Revelation 2:17; and The Anchor Bible Dictionary, Vol. 3, p. 410.
