Psa 8:1 …. O LORD, our Lord, how majestic
is your name in all the earth! ….
You will see this differences in a lot of places in the
bible of the word Lord, Sometimes it is all capitals, “LORD” and then sometimes
it is just the first letter capitalized, “Lord” you may have wondered about
that at times, well it is not just an inconsistences with the printers. It is
telling you that there is two word used here. The word “Lord” lets us know that
the word Adonai is being used in the Hebrew, and when the word appears
in all capital letters, “LORD” it is the word Jahweh that the Hebrew
writer was using. Jahweh is the sacred name of God, the name by which God
revealed Himself to Moses in the burning bush.
