HalleluYah Scriptures
Not only are the HalleluYah Scriptures the most literal restored Name version being the purest and closest to the original Hebrew, but they are a translation that has been done in accordance with the Father’s Laws on all accounts, handled by believers who love His Name, guard the Shabbath and hold fast to His Covenant. Never in history has there been a translation that has been done in accordance with the Father’s Word combining all the features that we are about to present. The HalleluYah Scriptures is the purest version and the closest to the Hebrew than any other version by far.
