Etymology

The name Yahweh is derived from the Hebrew verb 'hayah,' meaning 'to be.' In the Hebrew Bible, Yahweh is portrayed as the creator and ruler of the universe, and his name is considered too sacred to be spoken aloud by observant Jews. The origins of Yahweh worship can be traced back to ancient Israelite religion, where he was originally a god of war and the divine warrior who led the Israelites to victory. Over time, Yahweh became the central figure in monotheistic worship, representing the ultimate source of all existence.
