Ok. I'm reading the Iliad and had a few questions about the gods. I searched a little on wikipedia and from my understanding Jove is another name for Jupiter? perhaps...? In the Iliad it said the parents of Apollo are Jove and Leto, but on wiki it says the parents are Zeus and Leto. I'm trying to figure out if there is a difference between these three names? Are they different, or are they different names for the same thing?

Pardon my ignorance of Mythology

  1. COULD ANY BODY PLEASE HELP ME ... AND TELL ME IF THID IS TRUE OR NOT .... I READ THIS AND I WANT TO KNOW IF IT TRUE OR NOT..........(I am well aware that modern scholars and a lot of Jews teach that Yahweh is the way you pronounce the Hebrew JHWH or as they put it YHWH, but this is not true and is based on the speculation of modern men.

    According to modern "scholars" and many unknowing Christians the Massoretic text incorrectly borrowed the vowels from the Hebrew word for "Lord." Thus, the tetragrammaton (JHWH) would be pronounced as "Jehovah." Yet, the modern scholars theorize that the Massorite's were incorrect in the pronunciation of the tetragrammaton and that there was no "J" sound in the Hebrew. Thus, they deduced "Yehovah." After this they were still unsatisfied and decided that since the "V" should sound like the "W" sound in Hebrew they also deduced that it should sound like "Yehowah." Eventually after much playing with the tetragrammaton they came up with what is the almost universally accepted way to pronounce the tetragrammaton, "Yahweh" (pronounced "yah-whey").The Gentiles sacrifice to devils, and not to God. The Greek's had named their chief of devils Zeus. Many people are familiar with Greek mythology and the stories about Zeus. He was the mythological king of the gods (devils) and the husband of Hera. The Romans called him the Latin "Jupiter" for he was "the chief Roman god, husband of Juno, and god of light, of the sky and weather, and of the state and its welfare and its laws." Jupiter was also given the Latin name "Jove." (All of the above information can be found in any good dictionary.)

    In the Latin language there is no "J" sound. The Latin "J" is pronounced as the English "Y" is. The Latin short "O" sound sounds like the English "AH." The Latin "V" sounds like the English "W" because there is no "V" sound in Latin. The Latin "E" sounds like the English's short "EH" sound. THUS:

    JOVE SOUNDED OUT


    J = Y
    O = AH
    V = W
    E = EH


    JOVE = YAHWEH
