In the Bible, God's name is spelled Jehovah but in Indiana Jones Last Crusade it's spelled Iehovah. Why?

That is a great question! And the answer is actually in movie too! So, in the movie, this was actually the second test that Indiana Jones had to pass, remember? The first test talked about a penitent man and Indie had to kneel before God so that his head wouldn’t get chopped off!

The second test was, “to proceed in the footsteps of the Word of God.” Both Indiana and his dad realized that the riddle dealt with the name of God, which is Jehovah. BUT, Indiana almost fell through the floor when he stepped on the letter “J”, remember? The reason was (and both Indiana and his dad say it at the same time) because in the Latin alphabet Jehovah starts with an “I”!!!

So, Indiana steps on the tiles in this order: I – E – H – O – V – A. This is the way to spell Jehovah in Latin!

Wow, thanks for asking such a cool question because I got to watch one of my all time favorite movies in the process of finding out the answer!
