Don't bother buying the book

He does not know, nor does he, or you, need to know.

Shoshanna



So, nu?
What does he conclude, how is it pronounced?
What does it mean?
Or, do we have to buy the book?

There is a new book on this subject that soon will be published in
English. I have read the French edition: "GĂ©rard Gertoux (1999) Un
Historique du Nom Divin YHWH, Paris: L'Harmattan. It will soon be
published in English by "University Press of America": I got a
pre-publication discount of 20 % by ordering it last week
(custserv AT rowman.com.); ordinary price is $ 47.

The author has marshaled a huge amount of material from Hebrew and
cognate languages, and while it is difficult to draw definite
conclusions regarding the pronunciation of the name, this is the most
thorough discussion I have seen.
