As I understand it, the reason we see "LORD" and "God" in our bibles is because of a Jewish tradition that the name Yahweh was not to be spoken for fear that the name be blasphemed.
Most Jewish people won’t say Yahweh. Instead, they say HASHEM—a Hebrew word that means “The Name”, or they say Adonai—the Hebrew word for Lord.
Anyway, I'm sure that there are Jewish members here who can speak more authoritatively on the topic.
My best friend lives in Israel, Kiriat Bialik.
You are wrong, sir.
