The term for this banner is nês, becoming from the verb nâsas, this is, to shine, to lift up, to lift up a flag or sign.
The following mentions to flags for Israel are banners or sails of each family, called in hebrew: degel; which derives from the verb dâgal, this is, to flaunt, raise a flag. Therefore, very interrelated the above terms.
Is not noted or prominent any other component of this type for the Nation, therefore Her flag and banner is the name of Her Maker.
In other matters, Adonay, Elohim, El Elyon/Most High, El Shaday/Most Powerful, El Jay/Living Powerful, etc. are not names, and less distinct names of The Powerful One, but are titles. Analogy: President, Governor, Ambassador, or Chief, are not names, but they are titles, given in this case to men.
Torah does not mention (also known as Law of Moses: The first five books you have in your Bible) any of these titles is established in His name, and even placing deforming characters in the middle for some reason, such as "Ad-onay".
"Hashem" is not His name, not even the name of someone, but an "Hebrew word that means: the name. "
Is not right either to replace His name for a word that does not correspond to Torah as a title for Him, or different substantives, either using some other language other than Hebrew, even using these words with characters in the middle or some parte of the word, and these are not Hebrew words - as we advance - and is usually done with Hebrew words.
God derives from Proto-Indo-European word Gutom was based on the root ghau(e), which meant either "to call" or "to invoke". Title Elohim has been replaced in the first words of Torah for this name, known all this in Torah as zair (hairy, demons), or elohim ajerim (stranger elohim).
In different environments, we heard different references to deities. Even those who believe that there is only one, there are conceptual gaps concerning the identity, attributes, on His titles, and His only name. We shall begin than we believe there is only one, as from ancient civilizations thought before falling into polytheism, which is the existence of a single Elohim. It teaches Hebrew Scriptures, known in Judaism as "Tanak", in Christianity as "Old Testament".
Elohim is not a name, nor is the name of the Only Elohim, but is a title. It is the first reference to Him in Torah; a plural word interpreted as intensification. There might be something in English as well as powerful, very great.
Elohim called
Himself as Yihweh; they are four Hebrew letters
(Yôd, Hëy, Waw, Hëy),
because the Hebrew belongs to a family of
languages that do not use vowels in writing, but is only used in spoken
language.
His Name Is ONLY ONE, and to invoke is a commandment:
He says to Mosheh from bush burning (Exodus 3:15):
Wayo'mer `ôd 'Elohîym 'el- Mosheh Koh- to'mar 'el- benëy Yisrâ'ël Yihwêh 'Elohëy 'abotëykem- 'Elohëy 'Abrâhâm 'Elohëy Yitzjâq wë-'Elohëy Ya`aqob- shelaachaniy 'alëykem Zeh- shemîy le`olâm wezeh zikrîy ledor dor
"And Elohim said moreover to Mosheh: You shall say to the children of Israel: Yihweh; Elohim of Your Fathers, Elohim of Abraham, Elohim of Yitzjaq, Elohim of Ya'aqob, has sent me to You. This My name for hidden; and this My memory for generation of generation."
Yihweh means «He Is». The verb is hawah, and is linked to a family of verbs to denote the act of being, be, exist, happen, occur, and even live. This can make remember to more than one on the name of our mother Jawah, which means precisely: the living one .
In previous and subsequent passages, the Hebrew Scriptures tell us that Elohim YiHYeH. This is the same as expressed in verbal hayah variant, more common in the Hebrew Scriptures to denote the act of to be, or to happen.
Elohim says that's His name for Hidden. ¿Hidden? We have translated the Hebrew word `olâm as hidden, It derives from verb `alam, that means to hidde; and the noun mentioned means hidden in a broader sense, as we can see in other parts of the Hebrew Scriptures. Some versions use for this as a translation of the word: "indefinitely"; all of which therefore implies something beyond what is defined. Its idea belongs to Elohim, and only in the search of men and timely revelation of He can have an idea of what this implies in terms of time frames.
After further clarifies, saying that His name is memory across generations, to posterity.
Therefore:
His Name Is Yihweh
Meaning: HE IS
It is His Name for Hidden
Is a commandment to remember for the name generation after generation
In fact, in the tables of the Ten Commandments says:
"I Yihweh Your Elohim..."
Exodus 20:2
Expression I, certainly rule out the existence of many people within and/or as part of Elohim, as some beliefs and religions profess. It is as Our father says: "I [am] N... Your father". In this case involves the title of father to his name. There can be many fathers, but N... speaks us, Our father. In the same way, Yihweh speaks, Elohim of Israel. Not any elohim devised by man; in fact, such as worship of them is prohibited in Torah.
The Name of Yihweh occurs nearly seven thousand times along Hebrew Scriptures. Occurs most often even the same title Elohim; which points from some quantitative perspective the importance given, and He command to give to His name, and what is most remarkable in all this; because we all put name someone, but the name of Yihweh was given by Yihweh; nobody can give Him a name because He Is The Only Elohim.
The forms Yehowah, Yehowih, Yehová, etc. respond to the use of other vowels for those consonants, which has brought more confusion, and additional error to the important issue.
Yihweh not share his glory with anyone or anything else. He is the Only Elohim, so that is worthy of adoration and worship, as well as the only Savior, Redeemer, Rock and Husband of Israel. Yihweh is Elohim along all the world; and all the world is full of His mercy (Psalm 119:64). Forgiving and saved just because he wants to, in his capacity as Elohim. No blood or any other demand exceptional condition for it, except possibly our sincere repentance.

Qumram fragments (Second
Temple Period), where we can see the Psalm above.
The text is already in modern Hebrew, but the name is preserved in paleo Hebrew (First
Temple Period).

¡Israel: Confess the name of your Elohim, your Maker!
"And it shall come to pass, when all these
things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before
thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, whither, the
thy Elohim hath driven thee, And shalt return unto the
thy Elohim,
and shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and
thy children, with all thine heart, and with all thy soul; That then the
thy Elohim will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will
return and gather thee from all the nations whither the
thy Elohim hath
scattered thee."
Torah of Mosheh/Low
