Answer:

YAHWEH

Hint:

Not available

Explanation:

The clue asks for the Hebrew name for God, which in many religious texts is rendered as "Yahweh." This is the personal name revealed to Moses in the Bible (Exodus 3:14) and is often considered sacred in Jewish tradition. Some English translations use "Jehovah" due to historical pronunciation shifts, but "Yahweh" is the more accurate original form. It’s a direct reference with no wordplay—just a straightforward term from ancient Hebrew scripture.
