Jehova entries

[edit]

I have for the moment rolled back the addition of Jehovah related entries and fixed the dab notices and redirects. Please see my related comment at Talk:Jehovah#Disambiguation_pages --Tikiwont 07:53, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"national God"

[edit]

according to all religious texts (and the majority of information we have) on Yahweh, he was not a "national" God. The people of Israel did not consider him to be and neither do modern Jews, Christians, or Muslims. Schwarzschild Point 16:16, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

But we don't rely solely on religious texts. Many sources that meet our criteria at WP:RS refer to him as Israel's national god. See[1]. Doug Weller (talk) 16:36, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, there are such sources. But there are also plenty of reliable sources that would tell you that Yahweh is the name of the god of modern Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. We shouldn't privilege one usage or point of view over another on a disambiguation page. I will attempt to come up with a description that will be more NPOV. — trlkly 23:58, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
