I put this up on text criticism site @ Yahoo, so I figured I put it here as 
well.

 
I am assuming this is a variant, anyone got any ideas which reading it the 
correct one?

Jer 52:12 WBAXODE$  HAXAMIY$IY  BE`F&OR

In the fifth month and 10th day...

2 Kings 25:8 WBAXODE$ HAXAMIY$IY B:WIBY$IY

In the fifth month and 7th day....

          Is there any etymological connection between the Tetragrammaton
and the idea of "breathing" or "breath"?  The Siddur says, "The breathing of
all life praises thy Name," and I'm wondering if this might be more than
merely a platitude.  Could there be an actual connection between YHVH and
"breath"?
