    The old NWT used the name Jehovah 7207 times and the new NWT uses it 7213 times.

    Has anyone worked out where the extra Jehovahs appear in the text? Who wants to play where's Wally, I mean where's Jehovah?

    However there's an even bigger jump in Jesuses: 940 up from 918.

    Satan is exactly the same at 54.

    Are you sure that your search looked only at the text and not also at footnotes etc?

    If there really are differences within the text itself that would be very interesting.

    Yea, I was thinking footnotes, indexes, etc, could possibly be it.

    If they were added to the scriptures I'd look in the NT first. The old test has the YHWH in hebrew so it's a no brainer when translating that whereas it's not in the NT.

    They said that 5 of them were added because of Dead Sea Scrolls. So if I had to take a bet, I would look it up in Isaiah.

    WT Library can break it down by book how many of a certain word appear.

    I don't know if the app can do/does the same.

    Has Christ gone down for a corresponding number of times that Jesus is up? Inquiring minds want to know.

    High-larious.

    Talk about digging your heels in...changed up the marketing...message exactly the same. Don't be fooled folks...don't be fooled.

    so--what happens to the previous NWT--is it merely old light--or is it now apostate ?

    I do not like Jehovahs in the file.
    I do not like him in any style.
    I will not take him fried or boiled.
    I will not take him poached or broiled.
    I will not take him soft or scrambled,
    Despite an argument well-rambled.
    No fan I am of the Jehovah at hand.
