ArchivesRe: Jezebel and Isabel
in reply to a message by Alivad
I've just come back from Israel and there the name Jezebel is definitely pronounced Isabel. I have no idea where the idea that it is a variant of Elizabeth comes from. I have a feeling it may have been rehabilitated as a name by ignorance. The short if ignorance of Hebrew that turned the adonai into Jehovah.

I don't understand what you were trying to say with your comment but reading it feels uncomfortable and antisemitic, especially the last part...
and J-hovah came first before the word Adonai was used. because saying God's name is forbidden in Judaism
