Even this Bible that replaces the YHVH with LORD is showing that the DN should be in the NT, at least when the OT is quoted.

new understanding on joel ch 2 who are the locusts?.
there is a new building addition to warwick in the works.
Quote - Joel 2 now refers
to the "Babylonians", the coalition of nations that will try to
destroy God's people. The context of Joel chapter 2 points the time period of
fulfilment to Jehovah's Day in the Great Tribulation – end quote
Not promoting Robert's site, as I don't agree with all that he believes, but on Joel I do, and I think he is spot on, and he has been saying the following for many years:

Do they announce at that meeting that there is an new understanding of the locust or do they actually explain what that new understanding is? I would like to hear more about what it is.
And YES Jerome, the book of Joel explains very clearly that it is Jehovah that brings the locust (AKA The Northerner) against his own people. Just as he brings Gog against them. Gog's attack and the Northerner's attack are one in the same. I have been telling my wife's family for years now about the book of Joel and sending letters to the WTS/GB in regards to, so I am really interested in hearing what the new understanding is.
[Joel 2:25 And I will make compensation to YOU for the years that the locust, the creeping, unwinged locust, and the cockroach and the caterpillar have eaten, my great military force that I have sent among YOU.]
[Ezekiel 38:16 In the final part of the days it will occur, and I shall certainly bring you against my land,]
[Quote from “What the Future Holds” talk; speaking about Gog’s attack –
“What’s the point? Brothers, we should expect them to despoil us of our human rights. We should expect them to confiscate all of Jehovah’s belongings and close down and take possession of all our branches, factories, depots, kingdom halls, assembly halls, everything. Don’t make any mistake about it. We are all in this together. We have a common enemy.”]
[Joel 1:10 The field has been despoiled, the ground has gone to mourning; for the grain has been despoiled, the new wine has been dried up, the oil has faded away. 11 Farmers have felt shame; vinedressers have howled, …the harvest of the field has perished.17 Dried figs have shriveled under their shovels. Storehouses have been laid desolate. Barns have been torn down, for the grain has dried up. 18 O how the domestic animal has sighed! How the droves of cattle have wandered in confusion! For there is no pasturage for them. Also, the droves of the sheep have been the ones made to bear guilt. 19 “To you, O Jehovah, I shall call; for fire itself has devoured the pasture grounds of the wilderness, and a very flame has consumed all the trees of the field. 20 The beasts of the field also keep longing for you, because the channels of water have dried up, and fire itself has devoured the pasture grounds of the wilderness.”]
[1-15-04 WT p.20 par.19 – As foretold in Ezekiel chapter 38, Satan will soon complete his role as “Gog of the land of Magog.” This will involve a worldwide attack on Jehovah’s people. It will be an all-out attempt on the part of Satan to break the integrity of God’s loyal ones. As never before, worshipers of Jehovah will need to call upon him earnestly, even crying for help.]
[Joel
1:14 Proclaim a fast; call for a solemn assembly. Gather the elders together,
with all the inhabitants of the land, To the house of Jehovah your God, and cry to Jehovah for help.]

Transcription of the divine name as ΙΑΩ in the 1st-century BCE 4Q120
In addition to smaller text-critical variants, the manuscript displays the divine name in Greek characters, as ΙΑΩ (the trigrammaton) in Leviticus 3:12 (frg. 6) and 4:27 (frg. 20), instead of later practice of replacing it with κύριος ("Lord"). Skehan suggests that this is more original than Kurios.[3] Emmanuel Tov claims the use of Greek trigrammaton as proof that the "papyrus represents an early version of the Greek scripture..." antedating the text of the main manuscripts of Septuagint LXX.[4] The Codex Marchalianus is the only other extant manuscript of the Septaugint that uses ΙΑΩ to transcribe the tetragrammaton.[5]

In OT at Numbers 11:28 the YHV from the tetragrammaton are used for the name Yehoshua. In the NT at Hebrews 4:8 the name Yehoshua is there.
In the OT at Isaiah 1:1 the YH from the tetragrammaton are used for the name YshaYah. In the NT at Matthew 3:3 the name YshaYah/Isaiah is there.
In the OT at Psalm 104:35 the YH from the tetragrammaton are used for the name Yah. In that verse is says halal/'Praise Yah' which is the equivalent to the Halleluiah's you noted as being in the NT.
When the YHV is being used as prefix we see Yeho. When the YH from the tetragrammaton is being used alone we see Yah. And when the YH is being used as an suffix we see yah/iah.
Yehoshua/Isaiah
YHVH is: Yehoah
Yehoah - Yah

quote - His name is totally absent from the New Testament. It is evident, because it is not there. - end quote
The question is, why is it not there and if it was ever there.
Here is a place in the Hebrew Scriptures the name is used and written:

Now the same Scripture again you can see the name that you know was used and written in the above link you now see it was removed and replaced with LORD.
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus+6%3A3&version=NKJV
Knowing that, can you say for certain that the DN was not written at all in the original Greek writings?

quote - That is what we do here john! We show Watchtower quotes as proof of Watchtower lies and deceptions. - end quote
LOL!!! I understand that but that should only be directed to those that believe and follow the WTS/GB. I am well aware of their lies and deceptions, that is why I have never become a JW. I have pointed out many of times that Ezekiel ch. 13 1-16 applies to them.
And I am well aware of JWfacts from at least 10 years ago if not longer I have been viewing it.
My comments are not in defense of JW's, they are in defense of the Bible.
BTW, all this talk about coffee and apple pie and now I will have to have it tonight. Also whenever I hear apple pie mention, I always think of this:

Again, just like referring me to JWfacts, I don't see the point in showing me WTS quotes. I am not a JW nor ever was, so I don't care what they think is important or not. The only 'blunder' I see in the spelling of the name is using a V. It should be spelled JEHOAH.

quote - If Jesus did use God's name when speaking to his followers (one version is Jehovah), I am surprised that those recording his words did not put that very important info in their writings - end quote
blondie,
Do you personally think that when Jesus and his apostles did quote from the Hebrew Scriptures that they would have said the name?
If you do not believe they used the name, then can you tell me what reason they would have had to refrain from using it?
If you believe they did use the name, can you say for certain
that the DN was not written at all in the originals?
