I am pretty sure the search only includes the text. So if five extra Jehovahs are in the OT, that would leave one extra Jehovah in the NT somewhere.
Jgnat, Christ has gone down from 532 to 529, so a little bit but not enough to account for the all rise of Jesuses.
By the way, good stuff OUTLAW and rebel.
"If you remember from Annual Meeting, Brother Lett explained that Jehovah's name was added to the revised edition 6 times. Here they are:
Judges 19:18
1 Samuel 2:25
1 Samuel 6:23
1 Samuel 10:26
1 Samuel 23:14
1 Samuel 23:16"

I'm having a hard time finding 1 Samuel 6:23. The other five check out OK.
Hold the presses! It's 1 Samuel 6:3. (not 23)
Thanks. None in the NT then.
I guess that one additional Jehovah and one additional Jesus is in Galatians 1:8:
However, even if an angel out of heaven or Jesus or Jehovah were to declare to you as good news something beyond the good news we* declared to you, let him be accursed.

Judges 19:18
NWT 1953
In turn he said to him: "We are passing along from Bethlehem in Judah to the remotest parts of the mountainous region of Ephraim. That is where I am from, but I went to Bethlehem in Judah, and it is to my own house [see Footnote] that I am going, and there is nobody taking me on into the house".
Footnote : "To my own house," LXX. Compare verse 29. "To Jehovah's house," MSy. But as L. Koehler says in Lexicon in Veteris Testamenti Libros (Koehler-Baumgartner), in some cases the Hebrew suffix y [meaning "my") may be mistaken to mean YHWH (God's name), that is to say, Jehovah, as here; and, reversedly, YHWH may be mistaken to mean the Hebrew first person singular pronoun y (''my''), as at Jeremiah 9:6. Vg, "to God's house."
