Following is a list of the 72 places where the name “Jehovah” occurs, not in the main text of the New World Translation of the Christian Greek Scriptures, but only in the footnotes.

Mt 22:32; Mr 11:10; Lu 1:2; 2:11, 29, 38; 4:4, 18; Joh 5:4; Ac 2:30; 7:30, 37; 10:22; 13:43, 50; 14:25; 19:23; 20:25; 22:17; 26:7; Ro 7:6; 10:17; 11:8; 1Co 7:17; 10:28; 11:23; Ga 2:6; 3:20; 5:10, 12; Php 4:1, 4, 5, 10, 18; Col 3:15; 1Th 4:9, 16, 17, 17; 5:27; 1Ti 2:2, 10; 3:16; 4:7, 8; 5:4, 8; 6:2, 3, 6, 11; 2Ti 1:16, 18; 2:14, 22, 24; Tit 2:12; Heb 4:3; 9:20; 10:30; 1Pe 2:13; 3:1, 15; 5:3; 2Pe 1:3; 2Jo 11; Re 11:1, 19; 16:5; 19:1, 2.

“Jah,” the shorter form of the divine name, occurs in the Greek expression hal·le·lou·i·aʹ, a transliteration of the Hebrew ha·lelu-Yahʹ, “Praise Jah, you people!” Re (4 times) Re 19:1, 3, 4, 6.—See Ps 104:35 ftns.

The Hebrew word ʼAdho·naiʹ without an additional suffix always refers to Jehovah God, denoting his sovereign power. Therefore, it is appropriate to render it as “Sovereign Lord.” ʼAdho·naiʹ occurs 439 times in BHK and BHS. We have restored the original reading in 133 places where the original reading “Jehovah” was changed by the Sopherim to ʼAdho·naiʹ. (See App 1B.) Therefore, this reduces from 439 to 306 the number of places where ʼAdho·naiʹ occurs. In these 306 places the New World Translation renders ʼAdho·naiʹ as “Sovereign Lord.”

The expression ʼAdho·naiʹ Yehwihʹ, “Sovereign Lord Jehovah,” is found 285 times in BHK and BHS, namely, in Ge 15:2, 8; De 3:24; De 9:26; Jos 7:7; Jg 6:22; Jg 16:28; 2Sa 7:18, 19, 19, 20, 22, 28, 29; 1Ki 2:26; 1Ki 8:53; Ps 71:5, 16; Ps 73:28; Isa 7:7; Isa 25:8; Isa 28:16; Isa 30:15; Isa 40:10; Isa 48:16; Isa 49:22; Isa 50:4, 5, 7, 9; Isa 52:4; Isa 56:8; Isa 61:1, 11; Isa 65:13, 15; Jer 1:6; Jer 2:22; Jer 4:10; Jer 7:20; Jer 14:13; Jer 32:17, 25; Jer 44:26; Eze 2:4; Eze 3:11, 27; Eze 4:14; Eze 5:5, 7, 8, 11; Eze 6:3, 3, 11; Eze 7:2, 5; Eze 8:1; Eze 9:8; Eze 11:7, 8, 13, 16, 17, 21; Eze 12:10, 19, 23, 25, 28, 28; Eze 13:3, 8, 8, 9, 13, 16, 18, 20; Eze 14:4, 6, 11, 14, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23; Eze 15:6, 8; Eze 16:3, 8, 14, 19, 23, 30, 36, 43, 48, 59, 63; Eze 17:3, 9, 16, 19, 22; Eze 18:3, 9, 23, 30, 32; Eze 20:3, 3, 5, 27, 30, 31, 33, 36, 39, 40, 44, 47, 49; Eze 21:7, 13, 24, 26, 28; Eze 22:3, 12, 19, 28, 31; Eze 23:22, 28, 32, 34, 35, 46, 49; Eze 24:3, 6, 9, 14, 21, 24; Eze 25:3, 3, 6, 8, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16; Eze 26:3, 5, 7, 14, 15, 19, 21; Eze 27:3; Eze 28:2, 6, 10, 12, 22, 24, 25; Eze 29:3, 8, 13, 16, 19, 20; Eze 30:2, 6, 10, 13, 22; Eze 31:10, 15, 18; Eze 32:3, 8, 11, 14, 16, 31, 32; Eze 33:11, 25, 27; Eze 34:2, 8, 10, 11, 15, 17, 20, 30, 31; Eze 35:3, 6, 11, 14; Eze 36:2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, 7, 13, 14, 15, 22, 23, 32, 33, 37; Eze 37:3, 5, 9, 12, 19, 21; Eze 38:3, 10, 14, 17, 18, 21; Eze 39:1, 5, 8, 10, 13, 17, 20, 25, 29; Eze 43:18, 19, 27; Eze 44:6, 9, 12, 15, 27; Eze 45:9, 9, 15, 18; Eze 46:1, 16; Eze 47:13, 23; Eze 48:29; Am 1:8; Am 3:7, 8, 11, 13; Am 4:2, 5; Am 5:3; Am 6:8; Am 7:1, 2, 4, 4, 5, 6; Am 8:1, 3, 9, 11; Am 9:8; Ob 1; Mic 1:2; Zep 1:7; Zec 9:14.

The expression Yehwihʹ ʼAdho·naiʹ, “Jehovah the Sovereign Lord,” is found five times in BHK and BHS, namely, in Ps 68:20; 109:21; 140:7; 141:8; Hab 3:19.

The expression ʼAdho·naiʹ Yehwihʹ tseva·ohthʹ, “Sovereign Lord, Jehovah of armies,” is found 16 times in BHK and BHS, namely, in Ps 69:6; Isa 3:15; Isa 10:23, 24; Isa 22:5, 12, 14, 15; Isa 28:22; Jer 2:19; Jer 46:10, 10; Jer 49:5; Jer 50:25, 31; Am 9:5.

The title ʼElo·himʹ, when preceded by the definite article ha, gives the expression ha·ʼElo·himʹ. This expression occurs 376 times in M. In 368 places it refers to the true God, Jehovah, and in 8 places it refers to other gods.

Zorell^Heb, p. 54, says: “In the Holy Scriptures especially the one true God, Jahve, is designated by this word; a) האלהים ὁ θεός Ge 5:22; Ge 6:9, 11; Ge 17:18; Ge 20:6; Ex 3:12; Ex 19:17 and in several books written in prose; יהוה הוא האלהים ‘Jahve is the [one true] God’ De 4:35; 4:39; Jos 22:34; 2Sa 7:28; 1Ki 8:60 etc.”—Brackets his.

The New World Translation renders ha·ʼElo·himʹ as “the [true] God” in all 368 places where it refers to Jehovah. Following is a list of these 368 places: Ge 5:22, 24; Ge 6:2, 4, 9, 11; Ge 17:18; Ge 20:6, 17; Ge 22:1, 3, 9; Ge 27:28; Ge 31:11; Ge 35:7; Ge 41:25, 28, 32, 32; Ge 42:18; Ge 44:16; Ge 45:8; Ge 48:15, 15; Ex 1:17, 21; Ex 2:23; Ex 3:1, 6, 11, 12, 13; Ex 4:20, 27; Ex 14:19; Ex 17:9; Ex 18:5, 12, 16, 19, 19; Ex 19:3, 17, 19; Ex 20:20, 21; Ex 21:6, 13; Ex 22:8, 9; Ex 24:11, 13; Nu 22:10; Nu 23:27; De 4:35, 39; De 7:9; De 33:1; Jos 14:6; Jos 22:34; Jos 24:1; Jg 6:20, 36, 39; Jg 7:14; Jg 13:6, 6, 8, 9, 9; Jg 16:28; Jg 18:31; Jg 20:2, 27; Jg 21:2; 1Sa 4:4, 8, 8, 13, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22; 1Sa 5:1, 2, 10, 10, 11; 1Sa 6:20; 1Sa 9:7, 8, 10; 1Sa 10:3, 5, 7; 1Sa 14:18, 18, 36; 2Sa 2:27; 2Sa 6:2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 7, 12, 12; 2Sa 7:2, 28; 2Sa 12:16; 2Sa 14:17, 20; 2Sa 15:24, 24, 25, 29; 2Sa 16:23; 2Sa 19:27; 1Ki 8:60; 1Ki 12:22, 22; 1Ki 13:4, 5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 14, 14, 21, 26, 29, 31; 1Ki 17:18; 1Ki 18:21, 24, 24, 37, 39, 39; 1Ki 19:8; 1Ki 20:28; 2Ki 1:9, 11, 12, 13; 2Ki 4:7, 16, 21, 22, 25, 25, 27, 27, 40, 42; 2Ki 5:8, 14, 15, 20; 2Ki 6:6, 9, 10, 15; 2Ki 7:2, 17, 18, 19; 2Ki 8:2, 4, 7, 8, 11; 2Ki 13:19; 2Ki 19:15; 2Ki 23:16, 17; 1Ch 5:22; 1Ch 6:48, 49; 1Ch 9:11, 13, 26, 27; 1Ch 13:5, 6, 7, 8, 12, 12, 14; 1Ch 14:11, 14, 15, 16; 1Ch 15:1, 2, 15, 24, 26; 1Ch 16:1, 1, 6, 42; 1Ch 17:2, 21, 26; 1Ch 21:7, 8, 15, 17; 1Ch 22:1, 2, 19, 19; 1Ch 23:14, 28; 1Ch 24:5; 1Ch 25:5, 5, 6; 1Ch 26:20, 32; 1Ch 28:3, 12, 21; 1Ch 29:7; 2Ch 1:3, 4; 2Ch 3:3; 2Ch 4:11, 19; 2Ch 5:1, 14; 2Ch 7:5; 2Ch 8:14; 2Ch 9:23; 2Ch 10:15; 2Ch 11:2; 2Ch 13:12, 15; 2Ch 15:18; 2Ch 18:5; 2Ch 19:3; 2Ch 22:12; 2Ch 23:3, 9; 2Ch 24:7, 9, 13, 16, 20, 27; 2Ch 25:7, 8, 9, 9, 20, 24; 2Ch 26:5, 5, 7; 2Ch 28:24, 24; 2Ch 29:36; 2Ch 30:12, 16, 19; 2Ch 31:13, 14, 21; 2Ch 32:16, 31; 2Ch 33:7, 13; 2Ch 35:8; 2Ch 36:16, 18, 19; Ezr 1:3, 4, 5; Ezr 2:68; Ezr 3:2, 8, 9; Ezr 6:22; Ezr 8:36; Ezr 10:1, 6, 9; Ne 4:15; Ne 5:13; Ne 6:10; Ne 7:2; Ne 8:6, 8, 16, 18; Ne 9:7; Ne 10:28, 29, 29; Ne 11:11, 16, 22; Ne 12:24, 36, 40, 43; Ne 13:1, 7, 9, 11; Job 1:6; Job 2:1, 10; Ps 87:3; Ps 90:Sup; Ec 2:24, 26; Ec 3:11, 14, 14, 15, 17, 18; Ec 5:1, 2, 2, 6, 7, 18, 19, 20; Ec 6:2, 2; Ec 7:13, 14, 26, 29; Ec 8:12, 15, 17; Ec 9:1, 7; Ec 11:5, 9; Ec 12:7, 13, 14; Isa 37:16; Isa 45:18; Jer 35:4; Eze 31:9; Da 1:2, 9, 17; Da 9:3, 11; Jon 1:6; Jon 3:9, 10, 10; Jon 4:7.
