Rabbi Joseph Telushkin is widely respected and I think his commentary is well spoken.

Why do Jews write G-d instead of God?  Thanks.

Why?

A 3 letter word with a lot of meaning!

From my personal experience, it was because I was taught that way when I was younger.

Now reading up on it more, it seems to be associated with writing G-d's name which is not allowed by Jewish law.

The thing is, it really relates to using the Hebrew letters, not English or another translation.

So some just do it by habit and what they believe is respectful.

Like me I guess!

Thank you.
