Keine erhaltene griechische Handschrift des Neuen Testaments enthält das Tetragrammaton, weder in hebräischen noch in griechischen Buchstaben, an den Stellen, an denen die Neue-Welt-Übersetzung „Jehova“ liest. In die Skriflig / In Luce Verbi, 2020New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition), 2013

Die Position der Organisation oder ihre spätere Erklärung: Anhang C1 der Organisation bestreitet dies nicht. Er stellt fest: „Today, however, no manuscripts of the ‚New Testament‘ from the first century C.E. are available for us to examine. So no one can check the original Greek manuscripts of the ‚New Testament‘ to see whether the Bible writers used the Tetragrammaton“ — heute stünden keine Handschriften des „Neuen Testaments“ aus dem ersten Jahrhundert u. Z. zur Untersuchung zur Verfügung, sodass niemand die griechischen Urhandschriften daraufhin prüfen könne, ob die Bibelschreiber das Tetragrammaton verwendeten —, und argumentiert, Abschreiber hätten ab dem zweiten oder frühen dritten Jahrhundert Kyrios oder Theos eingesetzt.

In die Skriflig / In Luce Verbi, “Rendering the Divine Name in Romans 10:13”

2020 · pp.vol. 54, no. 1 · A. Tim Span, Stuart T. Rochester and Fika J. van Rensburg (Faculty of Theology, North-West University, South Africa) · AOSIS Publishing (open access); DOI 10.4102/ids.v54i1.2560

“There are no extant Greek New Testament manuscripts that contain the Tetragrammaton in Hebrew or Greek characters, and the multiplication of late Hebrew versions carries little weight. The Greek corpus of New Testament manuscripts and all early versions fail to yield an original New Testament Tetragrammaton, and the J versions offer little extra.”

A peer-reviewed, open-access article evaluating George Howard's 1977 hypothesis — the hypothesis on which the New World Translation's practice partly rests — through the test case of Romans 10:13. The authors conclude: 'An original Tetragrammaton lacks documentary and contextual support in Romans 10:13.'

Notes. The article is written from a confessional Reformed standpoint, which the site should say plainly when citing it. Its factual statement about the manuscript corpus is not in dispute among textual critics, including those who are sympathetic to Howard.

New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition), “Appendix C1: The Restoration of the Divine Name in the “New Testament””

2013 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“Today, however, no manuscripts of the “New Testament” from the first century C.E. are available for us to examine. So no one can check the original Greek manuscripts of the “New Testament” to see whether the Bible writers used the Tetragrammaton. The Greek manuscripts of the “New Testament” that would have a bearing on this issue are copies that were made from about 200 C.E. onward.”

The organisation's own appendix states plainly that the case for restoring the divine name rests on inference rather than on manuscript evidence. It then poses the translator's choice: 'Will he follow the Greek text that uses Kyʹri·os or The·osʹ instead of the Tetragrammaton, or will he endeavor to ascertain where the Tetragrammaton would have appeared in the original Greek manuscripts?'
