1. One who maintains that the vowel points of the word
Jehovah, in Hebrew, are the proper vowels of that word; --
opposed to adonist.

2. The writer of the passages of the Old Testament,
especially those of the Pentateuch, in which the Supreme
Being is styled Jehovah. See Elohist.
[1913 Webster]
The characteristic manner of the Jehovist differs
from that of his predecessor [the Elohist]. He is
fuller and freer in his descriptions; more
reflective in his assignment of motives and causes;
more artificial in mode of narration. --S. Davidson.
