The Ineffable Name/ the Tetragrammaton pronounced in full

The name of God is written "Y,E,V,E", and is unpronounceable, and is pronounced as "Adonai". It is customary to call this name "the name of the universe" composed of these letters.

("And this is the correction for directing your heart to the four letters, which are the foundation of the interpreted name, and in them is hidden a spring that springs forth and from the source of the man" - Otzar Hamidrashim (Eisenstein) Mein Ha-Hakmah, 310, and so: "When the hour came, the gates of heaven shook and the foundations of the firmament trembled at the voice of the prayer of Moses who remembered "The Shem HaMafarash" - Ozar Hamedrashim (Eisenstein) Moshe, 377, and so on: "How is the blessing of the priests in the sanctuary?... And they say the Shem as it is written, and that is the word that is pronounced from Yod He"a and Av He"a, and this is the Shem HaMafarash that is said in every place" - Harambam/ Sefer Ahabah, Hilchot Tefillah and Birchat Kohanim, Chapter Four Asher, 10, 209, and so on: "Now you have heard the interpreted name, and in the second half the old man will be forgotten from you. Your remembrance will fade and we will not be" - Shalom Aleichem/ Advice, 127)
