Noahidist Jew Michael Dallen in his book "The Rainbow Covenant" makes it very clear that Christianity is idolatry, as I have already explained (here). He also includes it as blasphemy.
The Tetragrammaton appears almost 6,000 times in every Hebrew Bible. Too sacred to pronounce, as its use presumes a more-than-human insight into God's supernal Essence, most Bible translations don't print it. Rather, they use the word "God" or replace it with "Lord", one of God's titles.
Tragically, this has encouraged many Christian readers to confuse Israel's coming messiah - literally, "the anointed one", who sometimes also gets the title "lord" (a Hebrew honorific, like the English "mister", "master" or "sir") - with the very mortal Messiah's infinite and unchanging Creator. But this is an error that must never be made. It is idolatry and a blasphemy - a terrible soul-coarsening mistake - to confuse God with even the greatest of His creatures.
