My son [shall not be called] by the name of Yw (Ywh > Yhwh ), o goddess, but Yammu shall be his name!
So he proclaimed the name of Yammu.
'Thus saith Cyrus, king of Persia: All the kingdoms of the earth hath Yahweh, the god of heaven, given me; and He hath charged me to build Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whosoever there is among you of all His people -- may Yahweh, his god, be with him -- let him go there.' (2 Chronicles 36:23)

A scene from the Passion of the Christ film? I know words in Semitic language would sound similar, but I don't think Jesus was referring to Allah in Islam. I would have to look more into that as there is more to that.

If you read a Bible in Arabic it will say "Allah".
That is The Arabic word for God. I don't think there is any other word.
If Muhammad and Jesus followed The God of Abraham , then it is all the same.edit on 7-8-2013 by arpgme because: (no reason given)
Who knows if the ancients of different cultures; including the Jews, believed in dragons or worshiped them.

In the bible the name "Lucifer" means "shining one or morning start." Which reminds me of planets live Venus that can shine brightly to the human eye and has been incorporated in cultures like Greek and Roman myths like Venus. As an atheist I have studied critical views of the bible. A lot of skeptics believe many stories to be influenced from older myths and that in the bible there were originally various gods and goddesses like Asherah.
That's why I find your claim to be very interesting. Because dragons and other mythological beast have been apart of so many cultures. Who knows if the ancients of different cultures; including the Jews, believed in dragons or worshiped them. I know there are beast in both the old and new testaments of the bible. With the bible being interpreted in so many different ways over the years the original meaning has been lost I believe. But we can still try to understand what they wanted to express in the 'holy' words.
Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads. - Revelation 12:3
the great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him. - Revelation 12:9

After doing more research I found out that there is disagreement among the scholars as to whether he was fully practicing the Zoroastrian religion or not.
Still, Yahweh being a Canaanite God of war still stands as fact which even scholars agree on. Here is a coin with "Yahweh" on it:

I don't see anything to give any proof that coin was of Yahweh.

33 Then those who were in the boat came and worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God.”
Behold the Master of Heaven and Earth.
Tons of "gods" back then, but the real one was hiding like a needle in a haystack.
