Hi Peter,

The Mesha stele, in line 18, has the Tetragrammaton (all four letters). Did Rolf respond to your request below? I didn't see a response.

Shalom,

Now this is interesting. Do you have evidence for the Tetragrammaton form, YHWH including a final he, from earlier than the Elephantine letters, so pre-exilic? What evidence? And does it actuall predate the first recorded use of matres lectionis?
