YWH

YWH is a trigram used by the Juifs of Elephantine in the place of YHWH (towards Ve S. AEC)

A temple dedicated to YHWH had been installed there after the wars between the Egyptians and Hittites. As it was interdict to have a multiplicity of temples (only that of Yerushalem was devoted), the lucky find was to withdraw a letter with the divine Tétragramme. The law was thus respected, but the temple had also been built.
