The King James Code

To avoid the use of the sacred, personal name of God, the King James translators developed a code that is still used in most versions today, even the modern ones. The code is as follows:

1) Elohim is rendered as God (Genesis 1:1).

2) Yah'weh is rendered as LORD - all in capital letters (Genesis 4:1).

3) Sovereign is rendered as Lord - a capital L followed by lower case letters (Genesis 18:27).

4) Sovereign Yah'weh is rendered as Lord GOD (Genesis 15:2).

5) Yah'weh Elohim is rendered as LORD God (Genesis 2:4).

So, every time the personal name of God - Yahweh - appears, it is rendered as LORD unless it appears in conjunction with Sovereign, in which case it is rendered GOD. But either way, its presence is always indicated by all capital letters.
