I saw several references on Internet to Iaouee pronunciation, consistent with
iahwe. However, all of them refer to the article of "Anson F. Rainey,
professor of Semitic Linguistics at Tel Aviv University," and publication in
"London Papyri."

Did anyone actually saw a photo of that transliteration? Any other
verification? I'm in doubt.

For a very good reason: modern Hebrew colloquialisms are based
directly on Russian, the language used by Eliezer Ben-Yehuda and
others of my father's generation. One example:

Russian: duraka pol rabota nye pokazivaiut
Hebrew: letipesh lo mar-im khatzi avoda.

There are hundreds of similar constructions, directly borrowed from
Russian which you will never find in the Bible.
