Variant spelling of JEHOVAH

-2 Nephi 22:2 || Isaiah 12:2

P: Jehovah >jg JEHOVAH

Discussion: Reportedly not capitalized in the Book of Mormon Manuscripts; changed by John Gilbert as a convention from the KJV. The other instance of Jehovah in the Book of Mormon was not capitalized, but this is probably because it is not a biblical quote.

Summary: Remove the "all capitals" from Jehovah, since this is just a KJV convention and not from manuscripts

Other occurrences not discussed in ATV: Moroni 10:34
